Real men love Winnie the Pooh THIS. Winnie the Pooh is the best. Probably the best show from my early childhood. The episode with Kessie (Find Her, Keep Her) always made me cry, as did the ending of Donkey for a Day. I used to also have dreams an awful lot like All's Well that Ends Wish...

Absolutely.

Been reading Chaucer's Troilus & Criseyde . I'm on Book V with only about 800 lines left. I already feel comfortable declaring it a genuine masterpiece. Has anyone else here read it? I was really skeptical that it could top Shakespeare's but I think it has, although their takes on it...

I think what you consider strange is strange. The keys of a PC are much too flat and porous. It's like typing on spongecake. Nothing can beat the visceral feeling of your fingers going down hard on glass and metal, the downward momentum surging up through the typebars, and pummeling the paper. ...

There is no luck in poker, just variance.

A new rant: [url]http://awesomelyshitty.wordpress.com/2011/05/07/rebecca-blacks-friday-is-just-as-good-as-anything-on-the-radio/ Comparing Rebecca Blacks as a singer to Bob Dylan as a singer is retarded, and she is in no way shape or form a better singer. Music and art doesn't exist in a bubble...

I guess this will be my pre-departure departure announcement. After I finish Twin Peaks (probably next week) I'm going to be taking a month-or-so break from the interwebs to retreat into the land of awesome audio and music. I have a plan to do a Dylan marathon on my uber-system since I&#...

So..... who's up to bat?

And as I've said a dozen times before, the pointless hospital scene did not help . One can call the hospital scene many things, but "pointless" is not one of them. Don't mistake your distaste for it for it actually having no meaning and purpose, because it (like most everythin...

Unbearably creepy.

While I really like the bands you said(Except Voivod, never listened to them... Also I need to listen to Kreator again, I don't even remember the last time I did), Dimension Hatross and Nothingface from Voivod are essential... there was really little else like them in the late 80s. They...

There shouldn't be, I know. There's just a lot of conflict and pain associated with getting older and still being confined to the position of "helpless onlooker" to which most people are invariably doomed. I hate how utterly selfish my existence is, and the prospects that I may si...

About those picky trve black metal fans... Why do you even listen to what they say? I don't, I just wasn't sure if you were one of them. ;) Also, talking about Thrash, which is your fav Thrash band? Mine is Testament nowadays(I liked them a bit last year, but nothing special. Now I&...

^ Great pic, although it doesn't look like Misato it's still sexy and beautiful.

Guess I should mention here I'm rewatching the series. I just finished Season 1. As I said in the "what are you watching" thread, I'd forgotten how amazingly awesome it was. Lynch is really the master of conjuring that "monsters under your bed and in your closet" aestheti...

I finished The Wire. Season 5 was the first season that bordered on being unbelievable, which makes it all the more surprising a lot of it was based on a true story. But it was a great way to end the series overall. That series never failed to deliver at least one great surprise each season, with to...

Dude... WHAT A COINCIDENCE! I'm listening to ASF right now! I'm already at "Mount North" and haven't seen A SINGLE BAD TRACK! Really awesome album. Haven't listened to At the Heart of Winter yet, is it good? I've listened to only three albums: Pure Holocaust, ASF and B...

My major complaint with TTRL is that I could get the same emotion by simply watching a three hour silent film on jungles in the South Pacific. That is why it completely fails as a film for me. I think this is really disingenuous such a film wouldn't have the same editing patterns and would lose...
