Xbox 360's tend to have the weirdest issues. Mine just started occasionally freezing with certain games while saving. Tried those games on other systems and they play fine, so I'm trying to figure out what the issue is. Nothing more frustrating than trying to play Half Life 2 and have to keep restarting the system

Some douche at a bar spoiled it for me. I didn't even bring up the movie. He just randomly said "Oh, I just saw Zombieland, and Guest Star X totally killed it!" I was speechless, and spent the better part of the night fighting the urge to break a beer bottle over his head.

"…Is there frontal nudity?"

Metallica
My band drove from New York to Austin for SXSW this year (36 hours straight each way, yes we're insane). On Sirius there was a station playing Metallica 24 hours a day, since they were being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. So we had that on pretty much the entire trip. Everyone else was sick

Whoa!
How the fuck did that happen?

As a guilty pleasure…
… I love their version of "God Gave Rock & Roll To You." It's such a cheesy song - that a capella bridge and the modulation at the end are so shamelessly, gloriously cheesy - that I can't help but love it. It's kind of like how I feel about "The Final Countdown."

Sure they do, where the fuck have you been?

Vivid is a great album, I don't give a shit what anyone says. That's in large part due to Reid's guitar work. He's a real motherfucker, in the Miles Davis sense.

Did it say, "I sat through Inland Empire and all I got was this lousy T-shirt?"

House of Leaves would suck as a film. Truant's story and The Navidson Record aren't very interesting stories as they are. In fact they're pretty conventional, together and on their own. It's the mock academic-criticism form and typographical presentation that makes the book unique. That can't translate to film.

Chipotlaway
Though I totally agree with you about the Sixth Sense and Poltergeist references, that Chipotle bit had me laughing for 10 minutes straight. This episode was definitely a winner for me.

Oh man, you just reminded me that my douche-card is about to expire. Better take care of that.

I didn't get that sense at all, redward. I think this is due to the fact that Napolean and Kip are never really shown as being insecure or self-conscious. Kip finds love, but he doesn't seem any more or less confident before or after. He remains exactly the same. Ditto for Napolean after the big dance routine.

It is superior only in the sense that it has a little ambition and some semblance of a narrative arc. I'm totally anti-Darko, but I find a lot more worth in that movie than I do Napolean Dynamite.

Oh hi Denny.

Just picturing that scene in my head makes me smile.
