That wasn’t directed at you! I’m sure you have a lovely personality. It’s just that many times I hear someone dishing out the “I wish they liked me for my personality” line, said persona actually has a horrible personality.

But you fighting polish, I think you’re great.

Your comment reminds me of a former roommate in college who had bad luck with the ladies. Said roommate was fat with terrible facial hygiene, no sense of style, and wasted his days on a Lazy Boy recliner mashing buttons on his XBox controller.

Anytime he complained about not being able to find a girl, he always said…

Hey dude you sound pretty tense, you sure you don’t have a Napoleon complex?

Ha no worries. It is frustrating, I’ve experienced the same thing even though I’m what you would call average height. And I can only imagine what the frustration is like of others automatically perceiving you to be a certain way based on your being of color. But yes, generalizations are very dangerous, especially…

I actually responded to another reply echoing your same sentiment. It’s very true and very dangerous that that sort of thinking will lead down a path of prejudice. If someone does something that’s off putting or offensive, it’s easy to look at them and pick out some way they’re different from you and base the reason…

No maam. I got straight B’s in college, I gots the smarts.

You’re definitely right. Overcompensating or over aggressive behavior is typical of people with insecurities, regardless of their height. It’s like when you notice some sort of offputting behavior by a person you just met, your immediate reaction is to pick what is different about them, “oh they’re doing this because…

I’m a guy, I think 6’1 maybe, but to add to that I notice the same thing. A lot of shorter guys I know seem to overcompensate by acting overly macho or aggressive, a typical Napoleon complex if you will (I know, Napoleon wasn’t actually short.)

Well if you want to talk more later, I’m here, ready to listen.

Really? I thought you’d have a bigger statement, FieryAntidote.

This is unfortunate for me as a Broncos fan living in LA, as I looked forward to four Broncos games here in California during the season.

Music Festivals. I had a great time at them in late teens/early 20’s, but it’s just so crowded and sweaty and you have to stand the entire show. Plus the band doesn’t nearly sound as good had they been performing solo at a venue.

Amen. I’m in my 20s and live in LA. Everyone here is gorgeous, and for a while I felt inadequate because I’m not. Don’t get me wrong, I have a decent face and decent build, but I’ve gained a few pounds over the years and had been desperately trying to get rid of them not for my own health benefit but just to feel like…

I felt the same way. Here’s my take:

It’s a bit more mature than Entourage. You essentially see people who have worked very hard for their success, and who have to deal with the real-world repercussions of their hard-partying lifestyle. Hell even the primary plotline of the season right now is because a party got out…

I think it’s a bit different when their entire livelihood rests on the ability to create YouTube views. One thing I’ve always thought about is when these cute little kids from viral videos grow up, are they going to look back and think that their parents took advantage of them just to get a brief dose of viral fame.

I…

The thing about Deadline was that it catered very well to its specific audience: people who were insiders, people who thought they were insiders, and people who wanted to be insiders in Hollywood. But Finke I think is dramatically overestimating how much people in Hollywood will care to read stories about Hollywood.

If…

It’s just a lot of fun. Everyone gets to live out their Vegas fantasy, it isn’t mean spirited, and although it isn’t necessarily “good,” it’s still entertaining.

Just like most things in life, Randy Quaid makes it all better.

Vegas Vacation is the best.
