This movie was good, but the Seth character was too often an insufferable prick and not really funny at all.

I've never read On the Road. Happy 50th birthday, On the Road.

Speaking of books having owned for four years but not having read, I'm currently reading Malcolm Lowry's Under the Volcano. I hope this gets better, because the 43-page opening chapter was a tough slog.

wikipedia lumps this book in with the oeuvre of Christopher Moore, successfully snuffing any interest I may have had in picking it up after Czech had spoken so fondly of it.

An image search reveals "Logan" to be a popular twink name.

I accept my culpability in this. I'd say you all should do the same, though I doubt any of us these days are interested in actual discussion. Lately, I spend more time with a book than I do with music. So that's my excuse.

I learned that from both the Mexican girl I dated a few years back, as well as some Mexican dudes I worked with even more years back. The girl said she would never date a Mexican; perhaps she would make an exception for one as "white" as her, but I never thought to ask.

If we all cared more about this folder, pbone's stupid "Makin' Playlists" thread wouldn't keep taking up front page space.

Don't ever quote him again.

It isn't uncommon for more anglicized Mexicans to take a dislike to other Mexicans. A lot of self-hatred in that culture; I'm sure routinely being shat upon by other Hispanic peoples (Cubans, Puerto Ricans, etc.), in addition to whites, plays a part. This, of course, is neither defense nor justification for Mario, for every breath he draws is a foul stain on the entire human race.

Michael Anthony was the worst thing about Van Halen, regardless of any non-Gary Cherone line-up.

Reading Absurdistan, which is plenty entertaining. I keep seeing the narrator as an overweight, Russian-accented Ali G, which is somewhat distracting; given the similarities between the two characters begin and end with both being white and loving American rap, images of Sascha Baron Coen were not likely the author's intent.

Really, this stopped being amusing after the third chapter. Get over it.

All fine reasons to despise him.

I used to rail on him pretty bad, though, I cannot recall what I hated about him, exactly. I assume he made a lot of shitty and stupid posts.

I saw Municipal Waste once. Was the singer wearing too short jogging shorts when you saw him?

Died, hopefully.

They're both lousy.

Someone kill luke-o.

Is Corona popular in Scotland?

Was that ironic, Czech? Ironic posts regarding ironic jokes stopped being funny a couple of years ago.

I wasn't aware it could interpreted any way other than cock sucking.

Blow-Up has aged terribly.

I read The Hours about five or six years ago for a class. It didn't leave a great impression on me, though I recall thinking it was okay; I never saw the film version. American Pastoral is one of my favorite books by one of my favorite authors, so yeah, that one's real good.
