About Me

Little. Yellow. Different.

I started a movie review blog. It's still fresh. More reviews to come once I watch more movies.

My Interests

i'm interested in things that are interesting. i.e. dead baby jokes, creative debates, travel, DVD special features, humor, etc.
i'm not interested in boring shit. i.e. your exhusbands, your kids, your mortage, the weather, stocks, politics, money, any combination of britney spears and/or anna nicole smith, reality tv, etc.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can honestly understand why this is the most amazing thing in the world...

Music:

classic rock, punk rock, 80s pop rock. i just need the rock.
"I hear the stories all the time/Just wanna know when I'll get mine/There must be something more to life than this" -JG&ZPC

Movies:

i like things in packs of threes: star wars, LOTR, indiana jones... I could name drop a billion but would you actually read them all?

Television:

Only the best: Mythbusters, How It's Made, Dirty Jobs, Survivorman, Man vs Wild, Lost, Heros, vh1 and adult swim (but not the obnoxious, abstract adult swim like saul of the molemen or assy mcgee)

Books:

Harry Potter(s), Issac Asimov stories, Princess Bride, Grimm's Fairy Tales, Transmetropolitan, Fables, Y the Last Man, Midnight Nation...
I'm trying to get into more sci-fi books so suggest some.

Heroes:

Helen of Troy.

My Blog

the gayest semester ever

a quickie before work

Generally, I'm a kind and generous person.  But sometimes people do things that just make me want to punch them in the face.  Why can't people leave their exes alone?  (I know this soun...

conundrum.

I'm going to prompt this blog entry first with the argument that I could totally be Chuck Klosterman.  Disclaimer: that argument is made based only after reading Killing Yourself to Live and the ...

I wanna riot!

fangirl (tiny spoilers)

Let's start at the beginning: the previews.  Hollywood has successfully butchered every attempt at a film adaptation of an Alan Moore novel.  I'm sure that Watchmen will follow in the same d...

everyone does it... don’t they?

Masturbation has always been one of those double standard topics.  Generally, "only guys do it" but then there's always the counter argument that "girls do it, they just don't admit to it" yet I ...
