Thought of the Day: Raaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwr

I was at a friend's house a while ago for a little gathering and at some point in the evening he removed a video from his VCR. Upon noting the title I exlaimed, "You huge loser! Do you own Underworld?"
He said, "Yes, yes I do."
Later this friend reveled to me that the film was actually a porn by the same title, because he didn't want me to think that he owned the feature film, Underworld.

Which brings me to my Thought of the Day:
I do not like boring people. I spend all day juggling data and writing dry email responses to morons. When I hang out with someone I need them to bring a little interesting to my life.
My friends that are not friends of obligation all have something about them that is interesting.
I don't especially value 'niceness.' Being a nice guy is not good enough. But if you are a nice guy who can quote extensively from Chaucer or Futurama, I am a happy girl.
I think that the above story illustrates my friend's understanding of my personality perfectly. I really would be less ashamed of him owning third rate pornography than owning the poorly done vampire/werewolf crap-fest that is Underworld.

Underworld was awesome!!!

Then again I will forgive a lot of shit to see Kate Beckinsale run around in a leather body suit. Raaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwr indeed.

My big issue is the male eye-candy.... sucked. Kate, yes yummy. What's-his-face, the Mary Sue character? He was just not worth his place in an other-wise eye-candy-esque film.

Or maybe it's an eye-soda film. Sweet, but absolutely nothing beneficial in it, and if you look too hard you'll just end up with cavities.

Yea, you are totally right, Kim. I was very saddened by the lack of lovely fellows to uhm... observe.
Also, I think it is one of those movies that could have rocked, but just kinda was meh instead.

Just great. Now I am going to have to worry about eye cavities.
