PS Apologies for unloading that massive quote on you. I just love Chesterton and "Orthodoxy", so I figured you'd enjoy it too.

"There is a sceptic far more terrible than he who believes that everything began in matter. It is possible to meet the sceptic who believes that everything began in himself. He doubts not the existence of angels or devils, but the existence of men and cows. For him his own friends are a mythology made up by himself.…
I've always been enamored with brunettes, and I've always thought Jennifer Connelly was gorgeous. A dorm get-together got completely derailed because He's Just Not That Into You was playing in the background, and I made the mistake of commenting that Cooper was crazy to cheat on Connelly for Johanssen. Went from…
Dumb train party….
Played the Major League trailer before class today… no one got the reference.
My best friend was diagnosed with brain cancer a few days before his 18th birthday. So naturally, his cousins husband drove from LA to hang out all day when he wasn't working. I remember watching "Waiting for Guffman" at my friend's house and Jack Johnson strolled in and exclaimed "Oh awesome! I love this movie."

My dad, a Vietnam war vet, was watching a local affiliate play a heavily edited Platoon on tv. A few minutes after I sat down the shotgun-smoking scene started to play. My…
tMaA always brings back vivid memories of being the sole passenger on the last day of school my sophomore year. Everyone I rode the bus w/were seniors and didn't have finals. DIsembarking the bus to "Lives" is a moment I'll always remember.
It's not too often we get article published on a Saturday. Wonder what the occasion is…
Oh my god there are Diplomacy friends in AVCLUB?!
Woohoo for Tabletop friends!
What happened there?
Goddamnit. Thank you sir for being willing to share that… damnit, who is cutting onions at 1230am?!
Wait, the American's is getting cancelled?
Well shit, as a HSE (High School Equivalency, it covers GED, HiSET, and TASC; the three available tests) instructor, I need to watch this episode.
Same here. I mentioned in another comment about the abruptness of that end right during the climactic battle.
Man I loved L'Engle's novels. Charles Wallace helped me survive a rough few years (6th-8th). Although when my freshman year of college, we had a guest lecture about all of the cliche portrayals of Native Americans throughout pop culture and he keyed in on the "always half-breed" or "native but w/blue eyes" trope and…
Man I remember having a sub demand we read this book out-loud for our guided reading time. Very awkward.
Loved that novel too, but I'm a little too nervous about revisiting it. That book had an abrupt as hell ending too.
Man, never has a wiki synopsis been so traumatic…
