I usually keep my own counsel when such discussions arise, but one of the women asked whether I'd see it, so I told her I can't stand to look at Tim Allen's face or Travolta's either. She proceeded to ask me what I'd seen lately that was really good. Again, normally I'd mention that "Casino Royale" is just out on DVD and that was really good, except by then I was in a mood so I extolled the virtues of "Pan's Labyrinth", explaining it dealt with guerrilla resistance to Franco's rule after the Spanish revolution, and simultaneously tells the story of a young girl's fantasy world where she's a princess who must complete tasks to regain her kingdom. And it's in Spanish with English subtitles. ::crickets chirp::
And don't get me wrong, "Pan's" is actually an AWESOME and ACCESSIBLE movie, but one they'd no sooner try than I'd try "Wild Hogs". I'm not saying I'm superior, just not one of them. Or this place.
OK, fuck that. If you say "that's the funniest thing I've seen in years" about "Wild Hogs", you're not as good as me.
We went to the movies yesterday (Music & Lyrics, shut up) and we had a gift card so were forced to go to the theater at the mall. For a brief moment after fighting through the food court after-movie crowd, I felt like I was visiting from another planet. A thinner, quieter planet.
Didn't stop me from getting my William-Sonoma on, though.
I'm a simple guy. I like y'all, but don't tell me you're a "people person", OK?
Also, if you tell me you are "straight-acting", I'll still be polite (Grandma Betsy lives on in me), but we'll be through. I read. I can love you if you don't read much, but if you read really bad shit, then I may not be able to love you. I'm liberal. Way. Who doesn't enjoy a nice trip (or a nice piece of fish)? I've traveled some, and I'll arrange my life so that I always can. Old people, babies (in their case, I think it's because my head/body ratio is similar), and your mother dig me (probably more than you do), and I'm OK with that. Know that if I am into you, I'll be amenable to just about anything. He'll be a lucky man who I aim to please. I'm aiming just thinking about you.

I sympathize. That's frightening.
Right?

You're such a culturally elite bitch.
I kid. I know exactly what you mean.
