Lemmings

I wanted to see No Country for Old Men when I saw the preview. But after I heard from actual people that it was good, like a lemming, I scurried off to the movie.

I'm not at all saying I didn't like it. I liked it a lot. But when I left the movie, I felt like my soul had been gang raped. Repeatedly. Again, I'm not saying it wasn't entertaining or even a good movie, but it was depressing as hell. I liked the gory parts, but like the typical movie-going lemmings **Spoiler coming, folks** I was a little disappointed that most of the likable characters(especially the guy who started his career with the Goonies) died.

I watched another depressing movie the next day called Zombie Honeymoon. I thought a friend had seen it and liked it (he hasn't watched it yet) and the box said it was funny.

They lied. It was sad. It did not make me laugh as advertised, in fact, it made me cry.

What the hell is with all the depressing movies??? Is Hollywood trying to get rid of middle America by depressing them and making everyone off themselves?

I'm on to you, Hollywood...

What kind of facial are we talking about here?

I just found out (thanks to Opie and Anthony) that my Cetaphil face wash is used as fake spunk on porno sets.

Does this mean I have to change my daily facial cleanser?

Also, for those of you not lucky enough to witness the hijinks's of my favorite Columbus TV news personality this week, you've missed: Johnny DiLoretto risking his life by taking a mixture of pop rocks and soda. OMG!
On Wednesday he was paired with the hacky radio hosts on the Brew. I think they had a douche-off.

I'm thinking a movie deal, or a book at least.

TV News does it again

This morning the Dispatch did something good. They poked fun at the local TV news stations for blowing today's "snow storm" out of proportion. It was well done, they talked about how to do it right and how to do it wrong.

I haven't seen other stations respond, but 10TV clearly took offense to the story. They did their own little segment on the Dispatch's story -- said they were right on and even talked to people on the street about what they thought about the coverage.

And then the dumb broad on the news had to say, "Just setting the story straight."

How about you just say, we can't take a joke or we don't like constructive criticism?
