When is brutal honesty too brutal? Like with a friend who complains and complains and doesn't listen? When can you say, "You don't listen to what I say or advise you. Shut up, I'm sick of hearing your petty shit."?

Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Speaking of distrubing comics that need to be made into films, I'm still wishing someone would have done Arkham Asylum somewhere in the Batman franchise instead of the crap they cranked out. *sigh*
If wishes were ponies, we'd all be eating steak.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I try to listen, Aimee, but you don't tell me what I want to hear, which makes it hard.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
"You don't listen to what I say or advise you. Shut up, I'm sick of hearing your petty shit."?
Well, if it was a real friend, I'd definitely say the first sentence--not so much the second. :)

I'm afraid I'm with Teppy on "Sin City." Not so much for the unending spiral of violence as a way to spend my off hours.
I appreciate Miller's stuff, but I'm also afraid "Sin City" might run into the same problems I saw with "Sky Captain"--they were so busy making it look new and hip and different that they didn't notice the story had no depth. When I think of "Sky Captain," it's like something I remember dreaming, hazy and colorless, and there wasn't enough meat in it to do more than "Well, that looks interesting."
I imagine "Sin City's" not going to have much problem with meat (red, juicy meat), but I'm afraid the look will get in the way of the story.
(I'm aware this would probably be better in Movies, but hey)
