It's fun to see which alleged "gurl power!!" movies fail the Bechdel test, but I agree that passing/failing it doesn't make a movie automatically feminist or unfeminist. I can think of several films with strong, positive female characters who never have non-man-centered conversations with other women. (And plenty of…

LOL, "tabenaika." This is a parody of a famously terribad gay manga called Yaranaika, which makes the presence of the hot dogs even more disturbing.

Apparently communism will suck for minorities, women and transvestites. (I'm sure the fellow on the right is wearing some kind of overcoat and not a fabulous blue dress, but that's what I saw at first glance.)

I've had GAD and dermatillomania since puberty. My mother has GAD as well — as does my partner and HER mother. I suffer from racing thoughts, constant tension, and a perpetual "causeless" sort of worry. You could insulate me from all of life's responsibilities and I would still be anxious. Conversely, you could saddle…

I love writing. And I never thought I'd say that, because I always wanted to be a writer (not necessarily a "published" or "famous" one, just a person who writes entertaining stories) but I could rarely motivate myself to actually WRITE. It was tiring, writer's block stumped me on every other paragraph, and I almost…

This will probably be kind of hard to watch. But I have a thing for black alien slime and any sci-fi with a "corruption" theme so I will totally see it anyway, preferably while drinking.

That's adorable. It's also funny how obvious it is that the voiceover was written in Chinese first, then translated into English.

My Dad visited China and had a radio in his room. When he went to turn the radio on the knob came off in his hand: it was a cardboard box painted to look like a radio.

My friend says they do make ramen bowls out of fermented fish, so if it tasted rotten that might be what it was (though you did say it was fresh, so idk).

Pi dan are seriously good. I've had them chopped up in a cold tofu dish — they have a very mild flavor, a little like cheese.

My dad walked into one of these too. He was mowing the yard beside a tall fence and something tapped him on the head. He said he thought the neighbor was leaning over the fence trying to catch his attention, and thought that was an odd way to say hello...and then he looked up and saw what it was.

An excellent analysis. I didn't find 'Blink' or the Angels to be frightening per se, but I was definitely entertained.
