Overall thought it was a solid read. But good God did it need an editor.

So I got intoxicated last night and broke my own "don't feed the trolls" policy. Oh well.

Your opinion is a perfectly acceptable one to have. That you felt the need to share it on a memoriam/obituary piece is vacant and maybe even borderline insulting to people who are sharing their genuine reactions to someone's death. The fact that he didn't mean anything to you doesn't mean that other people's feelings…

Heeeeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyeaaaahhhhhhhhh. Sha-de-ba-deep! She-deba-deep, shubby-bubby-shubby-bubby-shubby-bubby-shubby-wawawawawa

Meanwhile, Rex Reed, in addition to writing about movies, may write about what it's like to cope in a world with filthy South Koreans, tractor-sized women and the films of Christopher Nolan, and the limitations they can force upon you.

You're right, @Scrawler2:disqus , it was a poor choice of phrasing on my part. It was a situation that he created and perpetuated. Although I don't think Summer's character was without some fault; if she knew she didn't want to be with him and he was head over heels for her, she probably shouldn't have let the myth…

I'm sure that most guys out there have been strung along at some point. I think what made that movie so relatable for me was that I was in a situation where I was being strung along when I watched that movie for the first time. It was actually a bit cathartic, kind of witnessing some other sad sap go through this…

Sadly, it's (500) Days of Summer. Also, "Cop Killer" by Body Count.

Are there people out there who want to get into thrash who aren't already into thrash?

Dawes is the thrash of contemporary Americana soul rock.

Shuggie Otis always reminds me of a review-writing class I took in college, where we dissected what made a review of a particularly bad concert of his so brilliant.I think it was the line, "There was an underlying sadness to a performance so bad it was comical at times."

How is there a worst Weezer song thread and nobody's mentioned "Where's My Sex" yet? I remember reading in an interview that he got the idea for the song when his daughter asked him where her socks were. So, yeah …
