The Hangover II and the curse of mirror sequels
I saw The Hangover: Part II tonight and gosh. Kind of a disappointment. I like The Hangover. I think it was kind of a fresh take on the modern (you’re gonna hate me for saying) post-Apatow bud-comedy, you know? It was still pllllllllenty raunchy, but also kind of heartfelt and that’s the big difference. And Zach Galifianakis was delightful, as always (I swear, he’s gold) and...
The thing I hate more than anything is when assholes dismiss Parks and Rec and say it’s a carbon copy of The Office. That is a stupid thing to say.

I wrote a ten page stream-of-consciousness jawn for my Short Story class, and this is my professor’s feedback:
“Brilliant, sad, funny, wonderful, real and beautiful. I love the way you worked the O’Hara poem in and then wrapped it all up with the poem at the end. You did a fantastic job just “folding” the O’Hara poem in without being heavy-handed with it,...

I was trying to explain to my mom what Lady Gaga is during SNL tonight, and it’s tough. I didn’t get into it too much, but I basically told my mom that she’s kind of soft provocateur. I bet she’d LOVE to be a provocateur and she’s trying so hard to be one, but her music isn’t challenging, or defiant, or confrontational or anything. It’s just music, kind...
Maybe this new layout will make me post more.
