What makes this real is Streisand's shirt. My mother has a collection of shirts like that.

Swanberg's was my favorite section too, though it gets flack for not actually being on tape. I liked Ti West's too, even if people are let down by it. Me and the SO go on road trips all the time in similar motels, so that gave it an extra level of creepiness.

I read a book published by MTV around the same time as I first read Perks called 'The Fuck-Up,' which I liked at the time, even though I couldn't really relate to the main character's vagrancy.
