There is no stronger bond two men can share than having the same watch jammed up their asses over a seven year period.
Comment Commentary
Shin- You know, I still haven't counted how much cash I have on hand. I really need to do that later.
Starbound- It's not that I find all abstract paintings to be incredibly- in fact, there were some in Borders that looked extremely well-done- But a lot of ones that you don't find in highly esteemed art galleries seem to be trash, heh. But I'm not an art critic.
DDG- I just need a college loan.
Mimmi- Not tormented, just corporate and uninspired. :P

I just got finished watching Pulp Fiction on Bravo. I only came in as Mia was interviewing Vincent with her video camera, and because it was basic cable at four in the afternoon, it was pretty heavily edited, but I enjoyed it. The Golden Watch chapter (Or segment, if that's what you would prefer to call it) started out rather slow, but it picked up by the end. The whole Mia and Vincent ordeal was probably my favorite part (though Jules conversing with the coffee shop robbers was also cool), but I don't see much of a point in comparing them all.

The editing was pretty nice- for the most part I couldn't really tell where there was any editing done, but there were a few blatant slipups. In some situations, though, I suppose there isn't much else you can do except for just mute the dialogue for a second. That's something that bothered me when I was comparing the edited Reservoir Dogs to the original version. All of the profanities weren't all that necessary- there are some instances and characters where language can be used to enforce a bit of dialogue, but with good actors the character's emotions can be expressed without spitting out the F-bomb twenty-six times in one scene.

I still have one question for Bravo, though: Where'd the gimp go? :P

Time for some filler content.

THINGS THAT ANNOY ME

Elitists. There's nothing worse than a fat Asian dude at a convention pointing out any minor flaw in anything you do. I came into contact with three or four of them at the last Anime Expo, and they all suck, simple as that.

Celebrities blindly promoting video games. If they don't know what makes a good game and the only thing they talk about to promote it is the graphics, the industry is better off without them.

Pesky neighborhood kids. My brother has met a couple of kids in the neighborhood and had them over a couple of times, and now it's like they have to be here every day. Perhaps I'm just not the social type (What am I saying, "perhaps"?), but I don't like how they come over once and then cling to your leg for the rest of their lives as if you're the only thing keeping them from death.

Public protestors. Get a life.

Extreme Republicans/ Extreme Democrats. In the end, it doesn't really matter. They all end up working together in the government, anyway.

People who dislike Evangelion when they only watched it once and that was five years ago and now they could have a much higher opinion of it. Yeah, that's right, Azure. I'm talking to you. :P

People who dislike people who dislike people who dislike Evangelion when they only watched it once and that was five years ago and now they could have a much higher opinion of it. *cough* Azure, again.

People who waste precious blog space with lists about things that annoy them.

Aha, I win. There are still many other things that annoy me, but they shall be complained about in a different post (Whenever I remember them).

Teh SillyCircus Day 14- Two weeks down, eighty-something to go.
