If only I wore T-shirts!
That's insane troll logic!

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have *all* the fucking t-shirts. That's my problem. They cost under $15, and I forget that 100 shirts under $15 is still one gazillion dollars.
And, yes, I have that open in another window...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have *all* the fucking t-shirts.
In addition to two overflowing drawers in my dresser for the non-logo t-shirts, the shelves in both my bedroom closet and the spare bedroom closet are almost entirely devoted to my logo t-shirts.

I used to have all the freebie computer shirts. They are now cleaning rags, since I'm trying not to wear men's cut. Then it was comedy festival giveaways, also men's cut, but those I keep for sentimental reasons. Then general workout shirts for capoeira and early krav, and then krav logo became mandatory, and that was multiple shirts a day some weeks.
Now fandom...

I have a lot of freebie shirts, plus ones I bought on vacation (both geographic tees and stores/restaurants like Pat's Taco truck from Kauai), plus concert tees, plus fandom, plus a fair collection of random ones.

move out and draw fire
So one of my friends has spent the last two years trying to convince me that I shouldn't hate SuckerPunch.
He just forwarded me this review, which makes his same points only more clearly...I'm still not sold. I mean, I totally agree that Starship Troopers was trying to be a satire, but I thought it failed at the challenge it set itself up for, and I think SuckerPunch might have the same problem.

Because books.
No way was Sucker Punch supposed to be satire. It was just plain awful.

Do you see the book or the movie of Starship Trooper as a satire? I'm not sure how satirical Heinlein was being or if he was just exploring the potentials of that kind of world. He was very gung ho for military the requirements of citizenship. The movie struck me as a fairly straightforward "shoot the bugs before they kill us" thing.
