Big Entertainment Can't Melt Steel Breach-Of-Contract Clauses.

I've read a great majority of the book (still looking forward to finishing it when I get the chance), and it's really a great read for any theater or showbiz enthusiast.

Technically, we all have "tits." The sizes just vary.

It's only fair, since NBC copyrighted shots of women volleyball players slapping each other's asses in close up.

Too many people care.

This is the best thing about yourself you've ever written. You won't stop getting better, being better, and doing better. Anyone who doesn't like that has got a problem with themselves.

I paraphrased this elsewhere but in this case, this guy has some female friends, but most of them are in relationships. If they're
unattached and moderately attractive, he's usually smitten with them.

Addendum: close friends who were girls who you weren't trying to sleep with and/or attracted to.

What scares me is that most everyone else doesn't see a problem, or just views it as a "phase" he's going through.

He probably omitted that he accidentally took a little blue pill and was really worried about embarrassing himself at dinner if she didn't "take care of it."

I really feel for the guy, because his last two girlfriends did cheat on him and emotionally manipulate him, so I don't hold it against him to be weary. But it's been more than a few years now and sometimes it'll seem like he's emotionally in a better place, but then one small, minor issue with a woman, and he spirals…

That's So Hoe.

He hasn't been reading any of that stuff, to my knowledge, but his worldview does tend to get reductive and boilerplate. Overall, the whole thing is less about picking up women/sex/etc. and more about demanding intimacy and thinking that all women have ulterior motives.

I wouldn't say conquest, more objects of validation. So, for him, when he doesn't get the validation he wants, he refuses to show any humanity to them in return.

I kind of hope it actually is Dan Savage The Advice Columnist pretending to be Dan Savage The Sports Columnist and Dan is using every sports term he knows of.

Haven't had a situation like that yet (that I can think of at least). But I'm skeptical of all this. Sometimes the past is best left in the past.

McGann is still the most underrated doctor.

We now live in a world where Audio and Visual are Political.

That's why I appreciate O'Neal's obituary for alt-rock. It had been dying since Cobain went out in '94, but '96 was the year it was on the descending side of the hill.
