    • 10:15 @aaronreynolds It's better than watching Transformers 2. #betterthantransformers2 #
    • 10:22 Holy crow! I got Scientology spam today! This hasn't happened since I made that Scientologist cry. #
    • 11:00 Forgot @alyankovic had a Parker Lewis cameo. Coolness. #
    • 15:56 Just beat INFAMOUS. Sort was and wasn't expecting that ending, if you get me. Hope they make a sequel. #
    • 18:18 @scott_tobias @simonsaybrams Given the sexism/racism on display on the film, isn't it kind of a bad thing if people dig it? #
    • 18:27 @simonsaybrams Well, I don't think it's a moral crisis point. But the sexism stuff bothers me, 'cause it's under the radar. #
    • 18:28 @simonsaybrams Sends fucked up messages to kids, who are a big part of the audience; teaches the wrong roles, with no consent required. #
    • 18:29 @simonsaybrams <shrug>It's not gonna change anything either way. But it's fucking depressing that we're still wallowing in this crap. #
    • 18:32 @simonsaybrams I'm pretty sure people are going to have moved on in a week or two. If anything, it's heartening that the response is so bad. #
    • 18:32 @simonsaybrams None of that "What did you expect?" crap from last Transformers. #
    • 20:37 @Randazzoj Really? Mine just says "Lub-dub, lud-dub." And occasionally, "cut down in the Code Red." #
    • 20:52 @professormortis Maybe, but I didn't think it detracted from the film at all. #
    • 20:54 @professormortis Has that _every_ worked out for you? You really need to ignore everyone, I think. #
    • 20:54 @TashaRobinson Wow, I remember reading a review of that in Inquest magazine. The pictures looked awesome. #
    • 20:56 @professormortis Honestly, I was kind of hoping for a little more surprise in the ending, but thinking about it after, it worked. #
    • 21:35 @nathanrabin I've been putting that one off; are you doing a write-up? Curious if I should bother seeing it. #
    • 21:45 My work done for the day, time to settle in for the last hour of Batman & Robin. The stupidity comes in much clearer on Blu Ray. #
    • 21:47 @professormortis Had to, to get Batman Returns on BD. #
    • 21:50 @professormortis Plus, it makes for great riffing. #
    • 21:53 @professormortis Another thing to try for, next time you come to visit. :) #
    • 21:57 @GenevieveKoski Well, it _is_ a dance step that you can't deny. #
    • 22:08 Fun fact: Any minute that Chris O'Donnell is onscreen not being punched, a puppy commits suicide. Seriously. #
    • 22:18 @NathanFillion Don't do it, Paul! He'll only send you a crazy girl in a box, and thenchange the locks while your outside opening it! #
    • 22:56 Having survived BATMAN & ROBIN, time for the reward: BATMAN RETURNS, one of my top five favorite flicks. Has Pfeiffer ever been better? #
    • 23:01 @markpfeiffer Well, I dunno, I think you could always stand for improvement, but I wouldn't actually say that, y'know? #
    • 23:02 @tvoti I hit 400 this weekend, but I think the last 20 have all been fakes. Yay? #
    • 23:27 @aaronreynolds I'm not kidding when I say it's in my top five. Not sure if I could _defend_ it; to me, it's perfect, and incredibly rich. #
    • 23:28 @rcjohnso "I like to watch." #
    • 23:31 @aaronreynolds Good lord no. Just for Pfieffer's stuff alone. "Do we have to fight now?" #
    • 23:33 "Oh, I'm sorry. You know what? I mistook me for somebody else." #

    • 12:35 @Icrywolf Yeah, same here. It's like I became an adult so covertly even _I_ didn't notice. #
    • 12:53 @katecomer I heard "Beat It" and "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" on my way to jog this morning. Very cool. #
    • 13:30 @simonsaybrams The Russian version, right? I keep meaning to watch that again, but it's such a time commitment #
    • 13:36 @simonsaybrams Me too, though I haven't seen it since theaters. Went through a mini-Lem/Solaris phase when it came out. #
    • 13:38 @simonsaybrams It's very good, and presents quite a different take on the material than either movie. #
    • 13:57 I think I'm going to stop following @cnnbrk . The constant "Michael Jackson: Autopsies Happen!" crap is getting to me. #
    • 14:04 @aaronreynolds Jesus, you're Canadian too? Why are all my friends Canadian? #
    • 14:09 Today's movie marathon starts with ROBIN HOOD: PRINCE OF THIEVES. The extended cut. That means it's better, right? #
    • 14:13 @kphipps3000 It's not _terrible_. Rickman is hilarious, and it moves at a good clip. Big problem is Costner as lead, and Christian Slater. #
    • 14:15 @kphipps3000 @aaronreynolds ...Admittedly, I haven't seen it in years. #
    • 14:19 @aaronreynolds ...Let it go. #
    • 14:38 @neilhimself Speaking as a nerd, I gotta say: there's never gonna be a cooler image of anything, anywhere, ever. You guys need a TV series. #
    • 14:58 @thefingersofgod So far, it's been a bit more Rickman. Which is nice. #
    • 16:34 I was a sent over by @katecomer. Hope that's okay. :) #
    • 16:38 @aaronreynolds Sorry, man; I think PRINCE OF THIEVES, when it's not being too full of itself, was actually pretty fun. #
    • 18:08 @aaronreynolds You shouldn't trust _anybody_ who misspells my name like that. #
    • 19:49 Adorable! Also, kind of disturbing: yfrog.com/5a3snj #
    • 20:19 @phel And how are you this evening? #
    • 20:29 @phel Thanks! And Hurt Locker sounds terrific. Don't think we'll get it locally, though. #
    • 21:43 @simonsaybrams I really dug ROTLD 3. It's nowhere as great as the first one, but it's got some terrific subtext. #
    • 21:47 @simonsaybrams Haven't seen 2, had heard bad things. It's probably the best Yuzna film I've seen. (Only other one was Bride of Re-A.) #
    • 22:14 "I make art till someone dies. I am the world's first fully functional homicidal artist." #
    • 23:23 Huh. "The Batdance" sucks about as much as I remembered it sucking. #
    • 00:26 @katecomer Sorry, just a joke--she got a rise in followers from a rec from somebody, and I followed her through your mention. #

    • 08:54 @MikeCosta I don't think I started defining my tastes till I picked up Lyle Lovett's I LOVE EVERYBODY a couple years later. Penguins! #
    • 08:55 On THRILLER: suffer through "Girl Is Mine," and you get "Thriller/Beat It/Billie Jean"--one of the greatest threefers _ever_. #
    • 09:11 RT @MikeCosta: Repeat: Dean Koontz pretends to be his dead dog's ghost for the purposes of writing notes to his fans on his website. #
    • 09:29 @MikeCosta It is. Did you know that Koontz wrote a novel that features a sociopath critic as the villain? #
    • 10:09 The constant talk about Jackson's autopsy is freaking me out. Why have we become so obsessed about the insides of dead celebrities? #
    • 10:32 New TV might be delivered today. Rushed home, now jumping to window every time I hear a car go by. I'm a dog who wants his 1080p. #
    • 10:35 @phel Vizio, 37". #
    • 11:20 Good news: New HDTV arrived. Bad news: It has the same visual distortion that forced me to send back the last set. The fuck? #
    • 11:43 @SamuelaAdams Argh. It was such a pain in the ass to send it back last time. This time, they better send me the replacement _first_. #
    • 11:47 @KarinaLongworth That's the one with Eddie Murphy as her husband, right? Which is a weird freakin' contrast. #
    • 11:52 @KarinaLongworth Such a great kiss. Like Iman just stood there, and Michael started walking, and everybody hoped for the best. #
    • 12:06 @austinburns Well, they moved the headstones but they didn't move the bodies. That could be it. #
    • 13:27 Moon Bloodgood on Burn Notice: Incredibly annoying actress or incredibly annoying character? Both? #
    • 14:08 I sometimes suspect that I am trite. Ah well, you can't win 'em all! #
    • 14:14 Playing PROTOTYPE. More games need to start with your character in the morgue. (Sunset Blvd: The Deleted Scene Game.) #
    • 14:18 @joegarden Please! #
    • 14:29 @markpfeiffer Good lord, man. Prepare for a quality injection. #
    • 14:30 @simonsaybrams I love that movie. Soooo nasty. #
    • 14:33 @markpfeiffer If you like the Best Of, MY AIM IS TRUE, THIS YEAR'S MODEL, and KING OF AMERICA are essential. #
    • 14:38 @markpfeiffer @kphipps3000 Ooo, yeah, that one's great too. #
    • 15:55 Tweetdeck sucks. Long live tweetie for iPhone! (via @steveheisler) #
    • 19:58 Spam E-mail heading: "How to Spoot a Fake Orgasm!" Man, I am so behind the slang these days. #
    • 20:05 @justin_canada See, I know you're kidding, but that shit's gonna haunt me. #
    • 21:15 @scott_tobias "Once More With Feeling" might top it, but it's a close thing. #
    • 21:59 @moryan Nice new user pic, by the way. #
    • 22:22 Do you believe in life after love? #NotAskedOnCensus #
    • 22:41 @mattsinger That's the one where he assaults a woman with song, right? #
    • 22:49 @mattsinger Yup, that's the one. It's funny how MJ kept trying to force the edge he really didn't have. #
    • 22:58 Watching VIVA KNIEVEL. For, what, the fifth time? I've seen this more than I've seen IKURU. Life = wasted. #
    • 23:04 Okay, I've de-greened. Still support free elections. Just tired of looking like I'm drowning in Oz. #
    • 23:04 Hm. Should probably have worn a cooler T-shirt though. Maybe next time. #
    • 23:19 @mattsinger [hangs head, savors shame] #

    • 08:05 @SamuelaAdams Damn, I think you're right. #
    • 08:19 I had no idea I [heart] Huckabees was so divisive. Are there going to be riots? #
    • 08:21 @simonsaybrams At the very least, it's _defensible_. I actually liked Jane in Punisher, but apart from one scene, it's pretty lousy. #
    • 08:21 Hobo racing! #betterthantransformers2 #
    • 08:21 Dry shaving! #betterthantransformers2 #
    • 08:22 @scott_tobias I was amazed by the vitriol in the comments; I thought the movie was great fun. (Nice write-up, too.) #
    • 08:23 Reading the actual ingredients of your favorite cereal. #betterthantransformers2 #
    • 09:40 @katecomer Check out the comments on Scott's latest New Cult Canon; you won't feel quite so alone. :) #
    • 09:42 Importing the CHESS cast recording to my iPod. I lead a strange life. #
    • 09:49 @Zulkey To driiiiive the impossible driiiiive... #
    • 09:56 For those not following @The_AV_Club (why not?), I've got a new Trek piece up: tinyurl.com/kjn57s #
    • 10:14 @jacobuskaminus Occasionally they post news or RT other AV Club twitterers, but generally, yeahy, it's just "New article!" #
    • 10:14 @Skirkster Something nerds do. I wouldn't worry about it. #
    • 10:15 @simonsaybrams @scott_tobias Cox is effectively terrifying, but I still say his performance wouldn't've worked in SILENCE. #
    • 10:21 @simonsaybrams Well, whenever anyone talks about how great Cox is, it's followed by "He's so much better than Hopkins." #
    • 10:22 @simonsaybrams ...and I don't think that really works. #
    • 10:46 RT @mattsinger: Long in the making, here's IFC.com's List of The 50 Greatest Trailers of All Time. bit.ly/cdEqN #
    • 12:31 Okay, it starts kinda slow, but I'm digging CHESS a lot more than I was expecting. And I really don't like ABBA, either. #
    • 12:41 @NoelMu I deeply envy you DOLLHOUSE and MAD MEN. (I haven't seen _any_ of s2 MAD MEN. Soo stoked.) #
    • 12:46 @NoelMu Coolness, I'll put it on the list. #
    • 13:06 @Kyle_Ryan Most Depressing Inventory Ever: Movies that everyone hated that still made gazillions. #
    • 13:14 @neokefka_99 Don Henley's "Boys Of Summer." (Caveat: I recognized it, but couldn't remember the song till a Google search.) #
    • 13:34 Do people not realize that something called a "Gateway" isn't _supposed_ to be comprehensive? A door isn't a building, y'know. #
    • 17:50 Curious what euphemisms we'll be hearing about Jackson's life in news. Lots of tasteful uses of the word "troubled," I'm betting. #
    • 17:55 @markpfeiffer "reclusive" #
    • 18:09 @SamuelaAdams Wow, "farcical" is darker than I was expecting. Not bad. #
    • 18:47 Trailer for THE BOX: tinyurl.com/n3nbph Sooooo bad. (Sorry that this isn't MJ related.) #
    • 20:44 @aaronreynolds Is it worth getting? I've been tempted ever since I saw it. #
    • 21:00 @koshka42 '80's Twilight Zone. It's based on a story by Richard Matheson. #
    • 21:02 @phel Haven't you seen Twilight? Angel could be watching her in her sleep. #
    • 21:04 @phel I believe that all women are turned on by men who sneak into their bedrooms and stare at them, no? #
    • 21:18 @aaronreynolds More mediocre than terrible, really. #
    • 21:22 @aaronreynolds It's been a _really_ long time. I remember there being some odd CGI stuff for the aliens. #
    • 21:30 @aaronreynolds You may also get an urge to revisit Bakshi's Lord of the Rings. Resist this urge. #
    • 21:41 @kphipps3000 The last half hour of that is brilliant, but I thought it took too long to get started. Still, better than its rep. #
    • 21:48 Y'know, it'd be funny if, after all this, Cthulhu woke up. #
    • 22:00 @markpfeiffer @kphipps3000 My sister and I had the MOONWALKER VHS when we were kids. It's fascinating, in a sad, hilarious way. #
    • 22:05 @aaronreynolds It's so very, very bad. And yet I've watched it at least three times since buying it. #
    • 22:33 uncutohh.ytmnd.com/ #
    • 22:39 @NoelMu A foreign language version of the Duck Tales theme song. It's inessential, but pretty funny. #
    • 22:50 @kphipps3000 "luminous girl"? "fragmented dream memories of a fleeting micro-era"? It's like Lester Bangs got drunk and didn't have talent. #
    • 07:14 @gemko @NoelMu The novel is remarkable; Ishiguro in general rocks, but that one in particular... a quick read, too. #
    • 07:15 Okay, I'm gonna listen to OFF THE WALL and THRILLER today. It gets me out of having to listen to DANGEROUS again. (Second CD I ever bought!) #
    • 07:23 @aaronreynolds First album: Elton John's THE ONE. First CD: Bram Stoker's Dracula soundtrack. (My parents had DancingOTC) #
    • 07:28 @aaronreynolds 13. Dad and I saw it in theaters, and I just really liked the music. Kinda wish I still had it. #

    • 08:04 @phel At this point, the only things I'm psyched for are Hurt Locker, Public Enemies, and the new Tarantino. #
    • 08:11 @simonsaybrams I guess your best hope is to have your good sense obliterated in the first few minutes? #
    • 08:23 I've become addicted to iPod shuffle. It's like channel surfing with my ears. #
    • 08:25 ...Look, it's early. Don't expect the metaphors to be grand quite yet. #
    • 12:10 @Icrywolf Heh, I got that on iPhone, too. Where do you get the percentages? #
    • 12:16 @kphipps3000 And yet ironically, what she's wearing is the exact reason she needs condoms. Very Catch 22. #
    • 14:19 Nothing quite so frustrating as writing a perfectly adequate piece on something you consider extraordinary. #
    • 14:49 Is it even possible to go full freelance these days? Money concerns aside, my life would be so much better without the 8-4 job. #
    • 14:59 @NoelMu Yeah, I'm on my own here, which changes the equation. Although Maine is fairly cheap, cost o' living wise. #
    • 14:59 @SamuelaAdams Why wouldn't you recommend it? #
    • 15:00 @SamuelaAdams That would be my reservation as well; plus, I don't really have the right kind of contacts. Sigh. #
    • 16:54 @Icrywolf Thanks, I'll have to check that out. #
    • 17:00 Everybody's taking TRANSFORKERS 2's success as a given. I think we can do better. Let's all buy books this weekend. #
    • 17:01 Watching Larry David on the Daily Show... I think I may have to actually try watching Curb Your Enthusiasm. He's really likable. #
    • 17:03 @CajoleJuice Humiliation comedy rarely works for me. I was never a huge Seinfeld fan. #
    • 17:05 @Zulkey I have a _really_ hard time with humiliation comedy. Don't have the right barriers set up or something. May have to risk it, tho. #
    • 17:27 @dcmichaelrose Maybe "watchable" is a better word? #
    • 17:59 @professormortis I think at this point I'm kind of obligated to at least give it a try. (Jealous about the Wild Bunch!) #
    • 19:15 @gemko It's surprisingly fun; although I saw it in a double feature with Bad Boys II, which would make an Ilsa movie seem charming. #
    • 19:42 xkcd.com/601/ #
    • 20:28 @katecomer The jump between the last of S2 and the start of S3 is just astonishing. Made me a fan for life. #
    • 20:55 Working on Star Trek recap, listening to the score for Let The Right One In. Cognitive dissonance, you delightful minx you! #
    • 21:02 @tiffchow That's how I got Myst. I am currently not-playing it just like I not-played it in the '90's. Viva la tech! #
    • 21:25 @phel You said you took that camera down, woman! #
    • 21:34 Let The Left One In #unnecessarysequels #
    • 21:41 LET THE RIGHT ONE IN soundtrack: swirling, romantic, sadly creepy. Like if Thomas Newman had scored Donnie Darko. #
    • 23:00 @paperlung BARRY LYNDON is one of the most heartbreaking movies I've ever seen. Detached my ass. #
    • 23:03 @paperlung "Detached" was maybe the wrong word? I was trying to agree with you, anyway. #
    • 23:04 @paperlung Kubrick's one of the few directors that engages me as fully intellectually as he does emotionally. Both sides play off the other. #
    • 23:10 @paperlung I believe a "Good day, sir." would be in order, then. #
    • 07:48 RT @Randazzoj: Twitter offers unprecedented opportunities for everyday people to be ignored by famous people. #
    • 08:01 So it's still "Thomas Jane ('The Punisher')"? Shouldn't it be "Thomas Jane ('The Mist')? He deserves that much, anyway. #

    • 08:15 It is so cold in my office this morning that I'm losing feeling in my feet. #
    • 09:22 @scott_tobias It's funny how many advance reviews of Transformers 2 involve assault-based metaphors. #
    • 09:29 @kphipps3000 The D is for "unnecessary." #
    • 10:00 Today's dilemma: forgot iPod at home. Should I go get it during lunch, or just enjoy the quiet? #
    • 10:04 @neithernor I've never been much impressed by Fox's rack. That means I'm un-American, doesn't it. #
    • 10:07 @Zulkey I can never decide if she's savvy or just another Chance the Gardener in a halter top. #
    • 10:08 Between reality TV and the Transformers movie that'll be huge despite sucking, this is turning into the Summer of My Cultural Alienation. #
    • 11:57 @NoelMu Ooooo. Did it run you much for the install? #
    • 12:02 @NoelMu Thanks. I'm not sure I drive enough to justify it, but it is damn tempting. And hell, maybe my dad would do it. #
    • 12:16 I don't usually read AICN, but Vern's Transformers 1 review is brilliant: tinyurl.com/ysccrq (courtesy of @paperlung) #
    • 12:19 There are few days that aren't made better by The Kinks. Today is not one of them. (Untangle _that_ shit.) #
    • 12:19 @paperlung Coolness, I'll check it out when I have more time. I think I've heard good things about the Seagal book before. #
    • 15:07 @mindykaling @Zulkey I just turned 30. The lady speaks the truth. #
    • 16:31 Menaced by a poodle while jogging. Terrifying experience. Thinking of buying taller socks. #
    • 16:51 @johnwarrender Nah, I started at AICN, but quckly found my way to his site. Terrific stuff. #
    • 17:16 @phel Hey! #
    • 17:19 Finished The Woman Chaser. Fast read, not what I was expecting. Gonna have to think about it a bit. #
    • 17:34 @phel Well, I jog, y'know. #
    • 17:48 "Something you gotta know about specialists: they pay premium, and they don't cause fucking trouble." Deep wisdom, that. #
    • 17:58 @barefootjim Just the cocksucker I was quoting, to be sure. #
    • 18:27 @SarahJLang Have to be pretty damn big pillows, though. #
    • 18:32 @aaronreynolds Thanks! #
    • 19:58 @tvoti I actually went through the whole archives about a year ago. Totally worth it, but yeah, a bit on the time consuming side. #
    • 20:10 Work largely finished for the night, time to relax with another view of Dolph Lundgren's MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE. #
    • 20:11 "I am Gwildor of Thwenor!" Sure. Sure you are. #

    • 21:08 I don't want to see Transformers 2. Everybody knows it's terrible. So why do I feel--_guilty_ somehow? #
    • 21:25 New Halloween 2 trailer: tinyurl.com/me3doq (Dig the rotting pumpkinhead.) #
    • 21:50 @simonsaybrams I would, but I think you'll be damned regardless. #
    • 22:11 To celebrate the success of my first CTotD, closing out the day with Friday the 13th part 3. In (not really) 3-D! (EYEBALL!!) #
    • 22:24 @kphipps3000 Huh. I did not know that. #
    • 22:36 @aaronreynolds Yes, but both are trumped at Amittyville 3-D. #
    • 22:41 @aaronreynolds Ha! I can even picture that panel in the strip. #
    • 22:45 @katecomer I'd be too scared. #
    • 08:00 @phel Yup. #

    • 12:56 @justin_canada It looks _amazing_ on Blu Ray, too. See, now you just made me sad I don't have my HDTV. #
    • 13:19 @justin_canada I really should see that again. Hated it the first time cause of the changes to source, but a 2nd viewing might change that. #
    • 13:21 Feel bad deleting Fawlty Towers off my iPod, but honestly, I respect it more than I watch it. #
    • 13:31 @dcmichaelrose Wow, really? Thanks! It's nice to hear from you guys again, too, even in an abbreviated fashion. #
    • 14:21 @kphipps3000 Yeah, I really should've gotten on that. Turns out, I'm a lot less clever than I thought. #

    • 16:49 @nathanrabin I remember David Poland championing that one when it was in theaters as "the movie TRUMAN SHOW should've been." #
    • 16:59 @Zulkey So, the Power Point from Hell, then. #
    • 18:30 Kicking back with some Parker Lewis Can't Lose. Alls I'm missing is a bowl of Cheez-its for a pure nostalgia rush. Stupid diet. #
    • 18:32 Fun fact: an impossibly cute Milla Jovovich guests in the pilot as the girl that tears two buds apart. (Her English, not so good.) #
    • 18:37 @Scopi Well, you always were more of a Don Juan type then me. #
    • 18:39 @TashaRobinson Hey, it's only 150 minutes long. How bad could it be? (Take careful notes on all racial stereotypes!) #
    • 18:41 Nice how Milla wears THE HOTTEST SHIRT EVER to make her "I just wanna be friends" speech. Like Amidala's bondage "we can't date" get-up. #

    • 21:25 Teaser trailer for Shyamalan's LAST AIRBENDER: tinyurl.com/oz86dl (Interesting, since it's a story he _didn't_ write...) #
    • 21:29 This is a real thing: tinyurl.com/cu3kj7 #
    • 21:31 @davechensky They should pay the guy who made the trailer a million bucks. It made me want to see part 2, and I've seen part 1. #
    • 21:34 @Skirkster Yes. And yes. #
    • 21:35 @sweetsemicolon Oh wow, I'm really sorry about that. I don't think the full Avatar trailer's out, though. #
    • 21:42 @katecomer If you mean TipToes, it came out in 2003; you should be able to Netflix it. I'm too terrified. #
    • 21:48 @katecomer He's here to teach us that dwarfs are people too. Them and Matthew McConaughey. #

    • 18:59 @neithernor PPZ is _everywhere_. I had to resist getting it off Kindle, just for the hell of it. #
    • 19:02 @neithernor YA? That... doesn't make _any_ sense. Weird. #
    • 19:31 @Icrywolf A guaranteed personality, please. #
    • 23:51 Adult realizations: Y'know, KRULL is kind of a piece of shit. #
    • 00:25 @neilhimself Unanswered questions, like: Who was he making the bikinis for? #
    • 00:26 @neilhimself And, is there something that could explode while wearing one of those bikinis? (Didn't Bava direct one of the Goldfoot movies?) #
    • 00:29 I'd say Denise Richards has to be the worst Bond girl, because her presence manages to ruin an actually not-terrible movie. #
    • 01:01 And now to bed. And now to bed. #

    • 09:42 iPod shuffle just delivered "Pretty Women." Whee! "Tis your delight catching fire..." #
    • 12:21 @GenevieveKoski ... Okay, that was just mean. And I'm even listening to other music right now! #
    • 13:06 RT @scott_tobias: The first hardcopy of @nathanrabin's memoir... Very excited to read it and you should be, too. is.gd/100ql #
    • 17:47 Took the plunge--bought the BUFFY complete series box set. Would now like to take the next three weeks off to watch it, 'kay? #
    • 19:08 @phel I bought it used for $125. The new copy they had was $150, so you didn't get _too_ screwed. #
    • 19:11 @phel I've seen very little of 7. Plus, I just like having the box in my living room. Very comforting. #
    • 19:13 @phel I'm missing 2 and 3 on The Wire. Close, but not there yet. #
    • 19:14 @Skirkster Yup. #
    • 19:15 @katecomer Yup. #
    • 19:20 Tower of Awesome: yfrog.com/5a7bzdj #
    • 19:34 @simonsaybrams Well, that's a fairly small part of my DVD/Blu Ray collection, he said defensively. #
    • 20:07 @simonsaybrams ...Nah,I'm good. #
    • 20:10 Stuck at the laundromat. Trying to come up w/creepiest story I could start here. #
    • 20:26 I think there's a skunk outside the laundromat. Not a scenario I'd anticipated. #
    • 21:41 @aaronreynolds It's really, really fun. I just wasted an hour on the laundromat with it. (Thanks ,@NoelMu) #
    • 22:19 Watching DePalma's SCARFACE for the first time tonight. DePalma's kidding, right? #
    • 00:51 Man, SCARFACE would be an amazing black comedy if it wasn't three frickin' hours long. #

    • 09:30 It's worth repeating: EVITA is one weird fucking musical. #
    • 10:12 @tvoti Whoa. I look forward to hearing how you tamed the big city with your downhome honesty and grit! :) #
    • 10:13 CHICAGO is still pretty swell, although it's heartlessness occasionally gets tedious. "Lookit, we don't believe in _anything_!" #
    • 11:06 @simonsaybrams @kphipps3000 @NoelMu I liked the movie when I saw it, but watching it again, it seems just a _little_ too smug. #
    • 11:22 @NoelMu Have you read the book? I wish I could be more excited about the movie, but that book... #
    • 12:56 iPod shuffle just threw Natasha Richardson singing "Cabaret" at me. Ah jeez. #
    • 13:30 And now I have "Tomorrow Belongs To Me." Number 2 in the "Songs You Shouldn't Sing In Public" list. #
    • 13:56 @brianneflakes "Rednecks," by Randy Newman. (Actually, "Tomorrow Belongs To Me" is probably lower in the list. But "Rednecks" is #1.) #
    • 18:08 Might actually get some writing in tonight. But first, video games! #
    • 19:34 Watching the SHUTTER ISLAND trailer (tinyurl.com/mkjjoq), can't decide if I'm glad I've read the book. Kinda miss the surprise. #
    • 20:59 @moryan And rotten fruit sellers everywhere lower their heads in sorrow. #
    • 21:41 Ah, screw writing, let's watch CLASH OF THE TITANS again. Perseus, don't drop your magical sheil--aw damn. #

    • 08:25 No two ways about it; "Run For Your Life" is a creepy frickin' song. And it's a silly way to end such a generally upbeat album. #
    • 08:30 @kphipps3000 Earth Vs. the Flying Saucers. #
    • 08:31 And my iPod segues from "Run For Your Life" to "You Can't Do That." Is my iPod stalking someone? #
    • 10:12 Half of what I say is meaningless. Jiggah siglly doodlymag. #
    • 11:30 Hey, neat--THE STING is available on iTunes for 4.99. #
    • 11:47 @Zulkey It has multiplayer. You can bust ghosts with friends. #
    • 12:55 Ah, THE STING; remember when popular entertainment relied on good writing and performances and not LOUD NOISES? Get off my lawn! #
    • 12:57 @aaronreynolds Yeah, that's how I'm watching. (I mean, I bought it there too. I didn't still your iPhone. Not _this_ time.) #
    • 13:27 @scott_tobias I dunno, I like Newman and Redford over Roberts. Curious to see DUPLICITY, though. #
    • 21:35 @phel Oh god, I love the ending of that episode, with Spike in his car. #
    • 21:37 @phel Dammit. Y'all are making me feel bad I passed on the Buffy set I saw today. I'll have to get it later in the week. #
    • 22:52 Yahoo's main headline: "Miss California fired." And this nation's love affair with a plucky blond nitwit comes to an end. #
    • 22:58 @MikeCosta I think her stupidity was distracting from her hotness. Or maybe she killed a kid, I dunno. #
    • 23:05 @MikeCosta I KNOW. It's like I don't even know what to believe in anymore. #
    • 23:44 @katecomer Don't swallow any flies. Oh, and grant extensions on mortgage loans, for the love of god! #
    • 23:47 @seanoneal What kind of malignant, malingering cocksucker would do such a thing? #
    • 23:49 @katecomer And then she will vomit bile all over you. Ah, so much fun. #
    • 00:00 @katecomer ...that you know of. #

    • 14:33 Finished DEXTER season 2. Quite liked it. Ending maybe a little too convenient, and some secondary chars still annoy me, but a fun show. #
    • 14:43 @nathanrabin Ah, the rare film in which Lance Henriksen _doesn't_ die. #
    • 14:48 Petition: AT&T to offer reasonable iPhone 3GS upgrade prices twitition.com/f96aq @ryanbarr #
    • 16:25 Finally sent my big, damaged TV back to be replaced. *sob* It's so small. Come back soon, light of my life! #
    • 16:33 @mindykaling If that isn't the end credits, I may have to unfollow you, ma'am. #
    • 16:35 I can't watch blu-rays anymore! I can't play my PS3 till tomorrow! The sun's going out! Where's my onion! (falls over foaming at mouth) #
    • 16:40 @jeff_bbt Yeah, but you have love. I needed that TV to fill the ever expanding void in my soul, dammit. #
    • 21:09 @joshmodell Really? No love for Robert Patrick? Rock candy? The way every building John Cena leaves simply _has_ to explode? #
    • 22:32 @joshmodell Okay. Whew. Will now continue to avoid 12 Rounds. #
