I like smackin' 'em.*
Aug. 21st, 2009 10:52 pmI had the most shitastic day, in the details, ever. Let me break it down for y'all. ( Read more... )
The only good thing about today is that I didn't get molested by that damn wasp that keeps hovering inches away from my face whenever I have lunch outside in front of the Natural Museum. Seriously and literally in front of my face. Also, talked with mom and that actually went very well. \o/ Also, Friday, so no work tomorrow, which is a good thing.
Also, please note my sudden lapse from past sense to present tense in my descriptions. I've always had this damned problem and just can't seem to shake it.
ETA: My Bloody Valentine, while also bad, is such in a good way. Ranting at stupid victims in horror movies is cathartic and Jensen is pretty (even if I like him evil, like in El Pollo Loco, more than I like him scared). The gore is cringeworthy because I have an imagination, not because the lousy CGI does a good job. Pick-axes should not got there!
ETA 2: Apparently the 3D effects are awesome, so I can't really say anything about the CGI. Maybe it's only garishly obvious because I'm not watching it in 3D.
ETA 3: Why do people equate "spent time at a mental institution" with "psychotic mass-murdering fiend"? Gah.
