True that. I read that review and half its points I disagreed with while the other half I found irrelevant. But then it's not just as simple as "I disagree with Prof. Clumsy on issues of gender and overly male-focused narratives", because his review of Redline was essentially nothing but him beating on its gender politics and I thought he was dead on.

There was an episode of Get a Life where the entire inside of Chris Elliott's house gets tagged, and the most prominent one says, "Rear End."

It still makes me smile to this day.

In one of your early hideouts in GTA IV, there's a sign when you first enter that has been tagged over with ANAL BURNS. Rockstar humor is subtle.

Writing is one of those things you have to like doing, because otherwise it's going to be a constant battle to stay with it and its so easy to just go play a video game instead. I'm coming on ten years of doing my site next month, I like doing it and would keep doing it even if no one was reading it but me, but it's not for everyone.

Hey, related to what I last said, if I'm in a LDR with someone who's living somewhere that I've lived before and loving love on its own merits (in this case, New Orleans), is it still a terrible idea to follow them?

Haven't you been in this relationship for like three days?

He can't possibly think that passive-aggressively pointing out how you're ignoring him is meant to make you want to respond to him any more, right? :negative:

On blogging, it helps me that I try to set as much of a rigid schedule as possible. Also, I'm excited by these recent opportunities to attend advanced screenings, so I'm more motivated to write my reviews of new releases. On a related note, I just sent an email to the Chicago Film Critics Association asking some questions about registration, and Peter Sobcynzki told me he'd keep us in the pile for consideration of new entrants in July. :dance: It's a long shot, but better to hear 'no' than not to try at all, right?

Oof. Once this guy's diminutive sense of self-respect kicks in and he stops messaging you, and it's clear you've mined this particular situation of its comedy gold, be sure to send him a simple "not interested", for at least another message's worth of further debasement.

Nah, it's best to just never say a word like she's been doing thus far. Trolling guys like this is mad tempting, but ultimately not worth it.

I feel like at this point, our gentle prince is desperate for any kind of "win". Like he's invested so much into this that he demands some sort of recognition as a signal that it's all amounted to something. Even if her response is blatantly dismissive, that's just going to let him say "Ah, so it turns out she had no taste at all in the first place" and claim a sort of victory. Just never saying anything at all is going to drive him mad without stopping to his level.

I've definitely hit this point myself. It's just a great release. Before I started blogging, I would just sit around constantly and feel bad that I never wrote. Don't really get that much anymore.
