  1. "Have you ever had that no-so-fresh feeling?"
  2. In the end, I don't mind if an artist is an asshole if I love his/her music. There are limits. If I heard that Ryan had been out clubbing baby seals, it might be harder for me to listen to his tunes. But if the guy's just an egotistical twat ... well, that happens, but it doesn't prevent him from producing good music. By all accounts Dylan's not exactly a picnic, but I'm not going to stop listening to his songs just because he would probably never give me the time of day.
  3. Sweet! I lost my photocopy of that article a few years back ... hadn't bothered to track it down online. Thanks for the link!
  4. I wasn't sure whether to post this here (movie connection), in Someone Else's Song (The Frames connection), or Just A Fan (Tweedy mention). link Glen Hansard by Tasha Robinson January 17th, 2008 As a solo artist and as frontman for The Frames, Dublin native Glen Hansard has been in the music business since he was a teenager, but he only dabbled in cinema once, in 1991's The Commitments. Not liking the attention that came with film fame, he avoided cinema projects until 2006, when former Frames member John Carney asked him to write the songs for a low-key love story
  5. But attraction is, above all else, a subjective thing. Sure, Jessica Simpson may be attractive to a larger percentage of the population than most other women, but it would be ridiculous to suggest that every single person who's into women finds her attractive. It simply doesn't work that way. I'm proof of that. I'm not saying that I'm not attracted to her because I think she's dumb, or because I think I'm too cool for that, or some other bullshit. I'm quite simply not attracted to her. I understand why others are attracted to her, but she's just not what I'm into. I'm also not into Scarl
  6. I decided not to mention that second thing.
  7. 6' 1" to 6' 2", depending on who's measuring and how my back's feeling. 6' 1" is probably more accurate. My record collection is only OK, but my CD collection is pretty freakin' large (though not compared to SOME people 'round these parts). edit: male, in case you hadn't figured that out already.
  8. I may be wrong ... I thought she also had a contract with L'Oreal or Maybelline or something.
  9. Is it that hard to believe that I don't find her attractive? I understand why others do ... but she's just not my thing. But no, you'd rather tell me what I think. So, who's full of shit, again? She's the prototype Barbie, and despite your assertion to the contrary, whenever I see pictures of her, her face is crusted in makeup. Yuck. Oh, and: she does commercials for a cosmetics company. You still think she's "not all that made up"?
  10. Were you eating a "Sunken Treasure Chestâ„¢" meal?
  11. You've not mentioned anything about gasoline. Does she ever fill it up? Also: is this just a random roommate, or is this someone you've been friends with for a long time?
  12. In your opinion. She just doesn't do it for me. Watch that Proactiv commercial she does sometime. That's probably her worst moment, looks-wise. I've never been much into blondes, as a general rule (real or fake), though there are exceptions (she's obviously not one of them). As I mentioned previously, makeup is a turnoff too. Certain women like Jessica Simpson also seem almost ... canine to me, in a way I can't explain -- I don't know if it's the shape of her face, or her chin, or a combination of multiple factors, but when I look at her I see a certain breed of dog. I'm not very knowle
  13. I've always found her to be somewhat hideous. Can't understand all the drooling.
  14. Seriously. I mean, put a little imagination into it. "Fuckest thou off," for example, or "off now must thou fuck." Or better still: "Fuck along, now."
  15. I hate to say it, but the "no optical drive" thing would be a dealbreaker for me, at least for now. If I can't pop a CD or DVD into the thing, suddenly it's about 50% less useful to me as a portable computer. At some point in the future that may no longer be true, but it is now, for me anyway.
  16. I watched much of the first season. Since then, almost none. I have occasionally watched some of the audition shows, because the human train wrecks can be amusing. I've lost my taste even for that, though, because they put on so many people who show up just to be ridiculous. I'm far more interested in the people who can't carry a tune in a bucket but don't have the first clue how dreadful they are -- I have no patience for the blatant attention whores... ...or the judges. Who put Paula Abdul in charge of a singing contest? On the other hand, she was precisely the sort of talentless, manuf
  17. batshit insane, and if he could please go away now, that'd be great.
