Neither are most other drugs, legal or otherwise.

Reading that gave me a mental image of you struggling to repress the urge to punch those girls.

We do now.

Without a Paddle is far from a respectable film, but it's still miles above Resident Evil: Apocalypse. Then again, you could say the same about the When a Stranger Calls, Black Christmas and Prom Night remakes. I Know Who Killed Me. White Chicks. Twilight. 300. Clerks 2. Alien Vs. Predator. Snakes on a Plane. Final…

"The problem seems to be that I am not interested in the girls who are interested in me, and vice versa."

What's the combo that goes with female ejaculation, by the way? Ear flop, eye twitch, knee flutter?

Sometimes they do, but that isn't always the case.

That's for you to answer. Dating is always going to be a risky
proposition, at least on some level, but there are a couple of questions
it wouldn't hurt to ask yourself:

They can't all be Pynchon-worthy, but it wouldn't kill Dan or his editors to not force it if there isn't one forthcoming.

How much do you want to bet that IK's going to provide it for us eventually?

Next Week on Savage Commentariat:

I started with The Seventh Seal, which is as good a place as any, but Wild Strawberries is arguably the best entry point for newcomers. It's also one of the best he's ever done, which is saying A LOT, given the stiffness of its competition.

I really need to play more SMT/Persona. I beat Catherine last year and loved nearly every second of it, but aside from that, I haven't had a proper introduction to the franchise.

I don't think this happened at wherever it is they work, but I read and reread CREEP's letter and kept feeling like there was a point or two I was missing (like whether anyone saw the guy naked while he was in there, for instance), so I might be wrong in my interpretation of events. That letter really could have been…

It was fun to see that letter, if only because SOS had already done the very thing Dan would have told him to do if he'd written in earlier on.

No sex questions from me for the moment, but I went by the liquor store last week and picked up some Black Velvet Reserve. I know it isn't fancy or many people's first choice, but it's within my budget, it gets the job done and anyone who wants some is welcome to it.

Not just a giant red flag, but the leap in logic from "she left him" to "that means she wants me" is a huge one that smacks not only of magical thinking, but of cluelessness about relationships. I'd expect that from a 7th-grader whose classmates are just starting to couple up for the first time, but when a man who's…

Which is (partly) why people sometimes make their biggest romantic mistakes on the rebound.

My sentiments (almost) exactly.

Ten thousand years they slumbered…now they riiiiiiiiise…
