What's the issue w.r.t. Vonnegut, if I may?

As ever, Brad Neely's got you covered:

Well, yeah, but that includes an apartment with multiple bedrooms, beachside access, renters' privileges, and equipment. Expensive, but about on-par with what you'd expect.

Four days 'til vacation is what!

I do actually need to rewatch it, for the characters and direction over the plot.

I'll have you know that Holden McCrotch, III is a proud name, sir.

Ha, @Scrawler2:disqus, not a bit! Luckily, it's a very common first name with two nicknames, so we split that bad boy between us.

As someone with a friend named Siobahn, this is accurate.

It is a nuisance, but I'm kind of proud to have the same name as my dad; he's a cool guy, and pretty well-respected in his field, so I catch a bit of that reflected light, and I'll be proud to share his name after he's gone.

Aw, raspberries.

I have The Lunchbox's trailer memorized at this point.

2-4-6-8,
Brothers Bloom was pretty great,
'Mannered' meaning 'artifice-dense,'
I use it in the complimentary sense!

Especially the relationship between Mark Ruffalo (who is fantastic in it) and Adrien Brody—plus, Robbie Coltrane, Rachel Weisz, and enough lovely stylistic choices to make Rian Johnson 3-for-3 in his films. Absolutely one of my favorite young directors.

Man, everybody forgets Brothers Bloom. That movie is 100% watchable, even if it's mannered so hard Emily Post wants it to take a step back.

Well, in all fairness, cilantro does taste like soap—delicious, refreshing soap. But yeah, I'm not sure how I'd live my life without a cilantro-laden taco and a beer in the sun. Probably thinner & more productively, but eh.

I have a friend with the same problem. It's damned tragic, because I'd think liquor would be a necessity to hang out with me, but she copes. How does he feel about cilantro? Is it a supertaster issue, or is it just with booze?

I may have to try to track down a Theobroma this weekend now.

As a fan of Dogfish and gravedads, and an appreciator of Guided by Voices, I would like to express my enthusiasm for this product.
