I mourned the brick n mortar video rental business when Mondo Kim’s sold their video collection to some town in Italy or something, I forget. Things done changed.

Hi. I am a lurker. I just upvoted this whole thread. Thank you.

I like that this post had a reference to pooping back and forth in it. I really liked that Miranda July movie.

I just read his book of early short stories called “Bagombo Snuff Box” and it has a postscript entitled “Coda to My Career as a Writer for Periodicals”. The postscript is the best part. He basically admits that most of the stories in the collection are not very good and that he learned to write on the job, while writing for periodicals, an avenue closed to future generations of writers as far as he could tell. So his trademark brand of pessimism was at work, but it was actually a pretty upbeat essay and worth a read.

I don’t know if that’s covered in his speech, but I’m bookmarking it for viewing later, when I’m not at the office.

i’m way late to this party, but what katy said:

that wasn’t really rape. i found this review very confusing because i watched this movie and one thing that is made pretty clear is that bijou phillips was literally “asking for it”. they said, hey, if you want to join our street gang have sex with us three guys now (because that was totally not something that we just made up to take advantage of this two hot but slightly retarded girls) and she’s like okay, cool.

perhaps in the sense of ‘too intoxicated to judge correctly’ it would have been rape but then everyone stops having sex when she starts freaking out so no actually meant no. and probably in the statutory sense this could also be considered rape.

but also, god this movie sucked why am i even talking about this?
