Bob Saget likes me. We're on a first name basis.

About Me

I am a smart-ass, and damn proud of it. I'm sarcastic and love to make people laugh. I do have a serious side... somewhere, and I am always willing to drop everything and help a friend with a problem. Sometimes even multiple friends at the same time. I give great advice, but no one ever listens to it (one day, someone will then everyone will know). I should just charge by the hour, and say fuck 'em if they don't listen! I like using obscure and big words whenever possibly, and I sometimes don't make sense. I have a lot of goals, and one day, I WILL fulfill them. Just keep watching, it'll happen.

Movie Review 185: Hamlet 2

This movie was just the right amount of rediculous and funny. Some parts were really awkward and uncomfortable, but just to the point where you can't help but laugh. Steve Coogan was really good as a ...
