"Parents: If you encounter teenagers who say they liked this movie, do not let them date your children."

I've been in the town square in Delft, just outside of the Nieuwe Kerk, where that scene was filmed. There was some kind of car show going on at the time, so the atmosphere wasn't quite the same.

Zinskaro by Vokal Ansambl Gordela. Not an easy track to find.

Someone really dropped the Bollo on this.

One difference is that I don't think in terms of "what's best for me and my country," I think in terms of "what's best for my country" with the thought that's what's best for everyone is also best for me. I'm a godless hippie socialist, though.

It's especially strange as his mother was an English professor.

I think they assume all other people who can recognize a good person are exclusively Christian, whereas everyone else can go fuck themselves. It's the kind of people who say the US is a "Christian Nation" while disregarding the millions of non-Christians in the US (as well as documented history) who might disagree…

Having international media scrutiny and being asked to apologize is not being given a free pass.

Have you considered that just because you don't like something, that doesn't make it bad, it's just not to your taste? I'm sure there are fecalphiliacs who would indeed tell you that dog shit is an acquired taste.

They're not bad. They are kind of morose and quiet movies, not necessarily amazing, but certainly not a regrettable netflix watch. They have William Sadler and Saul Rubinek in recurring roles, which is a plus.

Good God, Tom Selleck and Roger E Mosley!

I'm a proud owner of the DVD. I had to complete Tom Selleck's oeuvre. High Road to China was not an easy get, nor worthwhile.

I don't really recall how well Christiansen did in the prequels as I've mostly blocked those from memory, but I defy anyone to watch Shattered Glass and say he's a bad actor.

A rare moment where he and his father are in agreement.

Tastes vary. I think it's fair to say that his vocals are the weakest element in his music, but it's only one element of what he creates. If your three-year-old laid down vocals over his music, it'd probably still be pretty great.

I just started listening to his music, and it seems to me that when he says he's a genius, he's not exactly humble, but certainly not incorrect. If having an enormous ego comes with making such incredible music, I think it's a small price for the rest of us to pay.

Well, if that's the case, then I'd have to go with Groove is in the Heart.

Swans "The Sound", or "The Seer", but I wouldn't enter until the last minute or so, well after the crescendo of each song. I like to keep people waiting, preferably uncomfortably. It's worth noting that I'm not really into sports.

But the constitution was written by the hand of God! He just forget to mention himself anywhere, because humility or whatever.

I know what I'm having for supper tonight, and likely the rest of the week.
