I was looking at my mother's cryptics last Christmas and I wanted to cry.
I'm utterly useless at cryptic crosswords.
I fed off a flowerperson, and I spent the next six hours watchin' my hand move.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Yeah, me too. Not how my brain brains, I guess. But I love the diagramless ones.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The second one did, Perkins--thanks!
I'm trying to watch American History X and I'm not sure I can make it all the way through. It's making me too anxious. Plus Ed Norton creeps me out since The Illusionist. And I keep thinking of what Ed Furlong looked like in CSI: NY, and that's kinda disturbing too.

Now tagless for your comfort.
No worries, msbelle. I was at the movies and missed her reply. Part of the problem is that I have to do some stuff for our class reunion so all these idiots keep friending me on Facebook. I grew up in a very conservative, religious town and I just don't think these people remember what I was like. So they friend me, read something on my status and feel they have to opine.
I'm taking Allyson's advice and thinning the herd. I have a few conservatives as friends and I actually enjoy the give and take. We have respectful differences of opinions but I can't tolerate any of that Fox News/Rush Limbaugh/Sean Hannity "Liberals don't like anyone who has a difference of opinion" crap. Needless to say, I'm going to be a pariah at the reunion this summer.
Fuck 'em. The entire narrow minded lot of them.

There are entire portions I won't look at the screen for, and one I muted proactively. I'm not sure I can make the whole way through it. But I need something to occupy my time, and I'm not feeling the other two Netflix movies either.

if you're more than halfway through I think you're past the worst of it

I just shielded myself from the really awful scene I knew was coming, but even so I think I experienced too much of it. But the rhetoric makes my brain hurty.

it's the particular scene of violence I couldn't take. And I think it's repeated.

ita, I agree. I watched it because I was fascinated by it, though. I think Norton did a good job. Plus I wanted to see how he did at the editing. There was a huge deal with him getting his hands on that--I can't remember if it was with the director.
I just saw Taken with Liam Neeson. It's very non thinky and visceral. The fight scenes were pretty Bournesque.
