What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

Jules and Jim was a fictionalized autobiography (the book, not the movie). The 90 year son of the maniac-pixie girlfriend in that book has written a French bestseller that is kind of a fiery manifesto for center-left politics. [link]

Don't remember if I initially got this link here or not.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You guys, you guys.

There is a movie coming out this year called Rubber.

IT IS ABOUT A KILLER TIRE.

I am not making this up.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

The Jim Carrey "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" completely missed the point of the original story, didn't it?

Aside from being an awful movie.

Because books.

Did someone make you watch it as punishment, Dana?

Giving my husband access to the Netflix queue has its ups and downs.

I just saw Wet Hot American Summer. What the fuck was that? The tonal rollercoaster kind of threw me, but when it got weird, it was hilarious. Best use of a can of mixed vegetables ever?

Oh, I didn't realize Susannah York had died last week.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I cannot believe the IMDB summary for Once Were Warriors says that the father obviously loves his family. But perhaps I'm short-tempered and judgmental. However, it doesn't seem like he loves anyone but himself.

Oh, yes, I judge.

Also, that Ashton Kutcher/Natalie Portman movie is at least as dumb as you thought it was. But it makes me want a proper, funny, R-rated romcom.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Maybe the Mila Kunis/Justin Timberlake one will be better?
