Well, my brothers, what have I been up to this past however? More, it would seem, than you might think, but also far, far less, as most of this more was of little interest.
Over the past 16 days, I've seen possibly 18 movies. This is due, in part, to my nerdly lifestyle, fascination [obsession] with cinema, and lack of things to do.
I've also played a great deal of DDR (or its equivalent).
At one point I tried to give television a second chance; it's a foul, loathesome, evil little cockroach in virtually all aspects (exceptions: Discovery Channel, History Channel, and Food Network) and usually not worth watching. Case in point, the first time I turned it on for something other than a movie, it happened to be on MSNBC. The show appeared to be evening news and appeared to be cutting to a commercial break. The anchor's exact words were as follows:
And when we come back, Republicans are up in arms over a new campaign ad featuring the coffins of soldiers who died in Iraq. What's wrong with telling the truth? Those coffins are real. Stick around.
Click. There are 4 things wrong with this statement.
Question. If you go to a video-rental store with intent to rent a particular movie, and the store doesn't carry the title, is this reasonable grounds to download it? This is a possible moral/ethical/legal dilemma. Someone could write a TOK essay on it.
I saw a spider in my room and named him Roland Orzabal. Coincidentally, after his debut he's disappeared, and everyone I know wants to kill him.
EDIT: What's wrong with
this picture?
