Sometimes I want you so much it hurts. If I were in the same room with you right now, I would rub up against you and perform no-strings-attached fellatio if I didn't fear it would ultimately leave you feeling empty.

Well, Sebby and I were just thinking of the children.

Are you a twosies fan too?
No. The source inspired me to post. It's both.

No, I'm not a fan. In fact, I've never pooped in my life.

NOT pants crapping. That's what the diapers are for. To prevent pants crapping.

Twice in the past five days, I have seen tools in trucker hats. Both times, I almost punched them in the face for being so completely and unironically passé.

My favorite bar is filled with these little faux-hipsters. They look so ridiculous -- in their "ironic" ensembles with their girlfriends who are always at least 4 inches taller with huge breasts. "Junkie skinny" works on a girl -- in the right clothing, she just looks like a coke whore. Junkie skinny on a guy just makes him look like an actor.

I will say the only person I have seen in the past month who looked good in a TH was Andy Roddick. Who cares if you are out out-of-step you are when you look that hot.

Indie Film Query

I just watched Welcome to the Dollhouse last night. It was a very surrealistic experience for me, as I am sure Todd Solodz intended it to be, what with the blending of cultural symbols from so many different eras.

However, as artistically structured as it was, it really struck me as not much more than an episode of Oliver Beene, the horrible Fox sitcom, gone tragically wrong. Nevertheless, I found myself stuck to the screen transfixed, as this train wreck of a movie careened on to its utterly empty conclusion.

Am I missing something of major cultural and artistic importance, or was it really the addictive piece of shit I ultimately concluded it was?

so you heard that we've decided that you are the root of all our problems and that we're putting you up for adoption? I guess that's what you get for eavesdropping.

If you are wearing diapers, you are still crapping your pants and walking around with crap all over your ass. You are just crapping into pants designed to be crapped into.

Don't analyze Solodz's shit. Just enjoy it. Dollhouse is a blacker than black comedy, but it pales in comparison to Solodz's follow up - Happiness. Happiness is the sort of flick that leaves everyone silent for hours afterward. I still can't decide if it was just gratuitously disturbing or making a legitimate statement of some sort. All I know is I couldn't stop watching for a second.

Whenever I read your posts, I am able to see the words and recognize them as forming sentences, but as I begin to actually read the words, for some reason I hear the growing buzzing of what sounds like a thousand whiny gnats in my head, and it becomes impossibly difficult to focus. So, through no fault of your own I am sure, that is what you have come to represent to me. A swarm of gnats that periodically appears out of nowhere, with an increasingly overwhelming high-pitched whine, and that then suddenly disappears.

Do gnats make a whiny noise? Or is that mosquitos?

Maybe I just have bad hearing. Though, I'd think of anyone you would, with your constant hipper-than-thou live music activities.

This was his first movie. He made it somewhat bothersome, but still accesible enough taht it was relatively popular. I liked it alot. But what I liked was how mean everyone was to Dawn- that is, it wasn't "nice" things, or important things that make it good. It was cruel mean stuff.

"Dawn, do you know what special people means?"

Dollhouse got him a bigger budget and some established actors for movie #2- Happiness. Have you seen it? It is way more troubling than Dollhouse (but a better movie to me).

Rather than pulling the plug on the guy, they gave him more money for a third movie- Storytelling. It is really really offensive. I don't know if he is making a fourth.

Perhaps you need to wash more.
