Nighthawk

I saw Dragon Wars tonight, and I'm going to say it was completely horrible, but still a good time. I'll own the dvd. I also experienced probably the absolute nerdiest moment of my life, in this one scene where they're in a restaurant and the guy says to the girl "Let's get outta here." or something like that, and I say "Let's go, Shoshanna!" as a Simpsons reference and my friend said exactly the same thing at exactly the same time, and we celebrated this by doing a two fingered high five and yelling "GO TEAM VENTURE!" Yeah, when that was over I decided I should probably jump in front of a truck as soon as I left the theater.

Have you ever just tried openly being an asshole? It is incredibly fun. But you can't... just do that in normal life. Being able to say "I'm in a band, bitch!" is one good reason.

The guy who was killed? Fucking nothing. It was a carjacking gone wrong. I guess the guy left his car and ran away like "I saw your face! You'll pay for this!" so they chased him down and killed him. Sawed off shotgun. They eventually caught the guys and sent them away, based on the security cam footage, which included the car (SUV, actually) in the extreme background, but they discerned the license plate from it.

Just abuse your position. Be like "Get out. I fucking work here. You see this vest? It means I can throw your ass out." Point at your name badge and be like Ed Norton in American History X: "You see this? It means NOT WELCOME!"

A guy was shot to death on my front porch when I was like 11. The police used the tape from the security cam as evidence. (This was when I was living in South Central).

I do know that Eric Clapton did some sort of torch passing to John Mayer (of all people) and told him he was the new Eric Clapton. I know that if I were John Mayer, I would have said "Who the fuck do the think you are? I'm better than you. Keep your faggot ass torch. Your son committed suicide because you suck." Hell, being a dick is one of the reasons you get into music. I've been in a lot of local bands, and the entire scene hates each other. That might just be a dog eat dog thing, no major labels going on. I know old bluesmen used to take on a protege from time to time. Son House and friends basically took an attitude of "Shut up, kid." to Robert Johnson when they first met him. By all accounts he sucked at the time, though. He went away for a while and when he came back he was really good. That's where the selling his soul story came from. But really he just practiced his ass off.

Oh god, this a complete dealbreaker (chicks and dudes making out with each other). I will just yell at them instantly "Get a FUCKING room!" I occasionally get answered back with "Do they have rooms here?" To which I yell "I don't fucking care. GET OUT!" That might have to do with my being incredibly bitter that I can't find a girlfriend myself, but it still puts a stop to that disgusting, insufferable shit. Hell, if I had a girlfriend, I wouldn't do that.

Been drinkin', KOAB?

If there's one person just being an ignorant ass, just outright say something. Trust me, everybody else wants to. Still, I guess that's a personality thing. This one friend of mine has basically the same view, except she'll walk out and complain to the management and get someone thrown out. I'll just openly tell them to shut the fuck up. Same result, though.

No, but I'll point out that Lupe Fiasco's album closing with like fifteen minutes of shout outs is pretty hilarious. Honestly, does anyone really care? I still listen to the whole thing every time, though. Minimalist beats are my thang. I listen to the instrumental versions of Dr. Octegonecologyst and Deltron 3030 more than the original versions. And I like the vocals.

I actually crack jokes all the time, but I really am funny, so I think it's ok. Everybody always laughs. I'm Htom Sirveaux, bitch! I can pick my moments though, I had this same problem when I saw Simpsons. This guy kept saying "DAMN!" after every single fucking joke. I eventually turned around and said "Shut the fuck up." to general applause. He did. I also never went back to that theater. There's funny and then there's annoying... you have to know when to draw the line. Quite honestly, the last time I had to deal with little kids was during Hostel 2. Why the fuck would you bring your kids to that, anyway?

I, for one, will sincerely wish her a happy birthday.

Odenkirk was always kinda shit. Not that I don't love him, but he needs a leash/caretaker. And the perfect man for the job was David Cross. So it's good news.

Well, I do it, but I don't really care. I mean, I like to gossip about people I actually know too, but often run out of things to blab about. Celebrities are interesting. Still, I wouldn't cry over it.

Oh, since I didn't mention straight or crooked, I'll note that mine are incredibly straight, with one exception. The bottom front two are slightly off kilter, the result of a dodgeball mishap when I was 10.

Just curious. Mine are rotten as all hell, although they aren't discolored very much. Mostly from drug/alcohol abuse, although I have a very prominent chip from getting in a fight. Everyone has said "Yeah, when you fix your teeth, just leave the chip. It adds character." So I'll probably do that. I was recently looking at some pictures of "meth mouth", as they call it, and there was a picture labeled "Stage 1" that was pretty close to myself. It said "Please stop now! Any more and the damage will be irreversible." So I can still erase this all away. And strangers still make out with me, so maybe it's not as bad as I make it out to be. I'm pretty self conscious, but nobody else seems to care. I'm missing one molar, and I guess that ain't coming back, but beyond that, it's all workable. Dentists have always told me "No, you don't need root canals or anything, this is all superficial." I think the molar on the opposite side of my mouth from the one that's gone might have to go, though. It's half eroded away already! Doesn't affect my smile, though, so who cares?

I'm taking the opportunity today to listen to "911 Is a Joke", the best Public Enemy song (besides "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos").

Thanks! Ok, my connection is too laggy to tell how bad of a lip synch that was (every single video I watch looks like a bad lip synch), but that was pretty god damned bad. I like Brit, I feel sorry for her, and I wish she'd get better, but I still laugh hysterically at her spectacular failures. This was one. I like the song. I actually like all of the leaked new Britney songs, and the opening of "It's Britney, bitch!" is awesome, I only wish she had said "Allow me to introduce myself... I'm Joe Britney, bitch!" But that fucking sucked. She should look into blowing her own head off on stage, it would make her the music legend. You can combine GG Allin and Kurt Cobain. Somebody needs to do that. The tradition of Britney's ass looking good on the VMAs is still going strong though. I will say, remember when we all thought Xtina was long gone and super crazy? She pulled herself out of it. She's fine now. I only hope Britney can do the same. Still, when she shows up to an awards show covered in blood and holding one of her dead kids, I won't shed a tear... except in laughter.

I've always said I felt no guilt over anything I listened to, because I listen to some pretty gay shit and don't care, but when I'm starting to enjoy like the Killers and the Bravery and stuff, I do feel some guilt. I was a little ashamed when I initially started to like James Taylor, but I got over it.

Pizza? I'm pretty sure a lot of people have. They're in Southern California, at least, that's where I saw them. Also very prominently featured in South Park. You know what pizza place I haven't been to in forever is Godfather's. There's like one of them in so cal, right by Disneyland, and my dad wouldn't let us go there anymore after somebody was smoking a joint out front once. Also right next to Disneyland is Po Folks, another great place. There were a lot of them back east, but that one by Disneyland was the only one in the west I knew of. They had excellent sweet tea, which you could have as much of as you wanted while you waited for a table. I guess it was like... soul food or something. You know, fried chicken, catfish, cornbread, that type of thing.

I don't really see Bateman as a product of his environment so much as commentary on it. Bookwise at least, there's some evidence of him being born, not made.

I didn't see it! I really wanted to, but as I only watch dvds, I don't get tv at all where I live. I was going to watch it at somebody's house, but that fell through.

I saw the latest Harry Potter movie the other day. I'm sure there was a thread about it, but it's been out a long time, and I don't know where it is, so I'll just say here that it was really good. The reason I waited so long was that I couldn't find anybody to go with me. I do know some people who would have, but I could never get the scheduling right, so finally I was like "This has to be the last week it's going to be showing. Fuck it, I'll go by myself." Which I did. And I was glad I did. (When I'm alone, it's ok to cry.) You know what my complaint is? Same problem I had with the casting of Hermione has been repeated with the casting of Luna Lovegood. The girls are too pretty. Hermione is written as plain and Luna as weird looking, but they're just pretty little girls. And Cho Chang, who is written as beautiful, is just some random ass Asian chick. What the fuck? Dudley is growing up to look like Nick Frost. I was very impressed with Helena Bonham Carter, and continually so with Ralph Fienness. The set design was also jaw dropping. Good flick.

Me too, man. Me too. I will also add that unless Jingus' saw that S & M rape with his own eyes it is absolute bullshit. I don't care how many witnesses she had. You try dragging a guy into your room and tying him up when he doesn't want it to happen. Hell, try doing that to a girl. If that story happened, the reason the guy left her alone was that he got what he wanted. Oh she might have spun it to herself like she scared him off, but that's wishful thinking. That's one of the stupidest stories I've ever heard.

It's really long is part of the problem.
