And I love her. I spent part of this week pretending I don't stalk her. Luckily she feels the exact same way
about me. Except Evany fails to mention the devil-eyes she gave me when someone asked how we knew each other. Evany stammered for a second, and I said, "It's okay, you can tell them we met on the Internet." I figured she didn't know if I wanted everyone to know I have a website. I had mistakenly assumed that everybody knew the web hottie Evany was. But the next question out of everyone's mouths was: "Evany! You have a website?!?" And then she quickly changed the subject, shouting, "Weezer! Look!"
Sorry, Evany. Didn't mean to out you.
Why'm I online at this hour? I'm looking up directions. I have plans! I do! But then I saw this, and that's what blogs are for.
Now: I'm off. To someplace
fabulous. Ha-heh! (I'm still speaking in
Party Monster mode.)

Sometimes when Pam and Dan are together, they make bad choices. Today's bad choice was
this. Please don't go see this movie. We love you too much. And I know the guy's friends with
Kymm's college roommate and all, but man. Bad movie. Fine. Don't take our word for it. Take
everybody else's.
Best line in the film: "Logger/Blogger."
Here's part of the problem with the movie (and I'm sure Dan will add to the list) but if you're making a drug movie that is lacking in sex, nudity, rock music, carnage or violence, then at least have it be about the dangers of doing drugs. Or show the destruction of a relationship. Or show the fabulous side of doing drugs. This film (which was much more entertaining as a trailer), had most of the plot points happen off-camera and were fed to us via phone call, sort of told the lives kinda about two people maybe, had characters walk in and out without backstory or conclusion (unless they died via informative phone call), and mostly enjoyed extended scenes of pee-drinking. It also lacked a real point of view. If we were learning the world through Seth Green, then it's hard to understand how he can be missing for a good hour of the film. And if the film is truly Culkin's, then how to we spend long periods of time with Seth Green? And if the story is about whether or not Michael killed someone, why not try to add at least some air of suspense, give us something to hope for, look forward to, or desire to see.
I tend to dislike a drug film because the plot is always, always, always the same, but this was a drug film lacking fun (and full of over-acting) and only made me laugh when Dylan Dullmont Mulroney McDermont was on-screen.
Just so you know I don't tell you to stay away from a movie without reason. I haven't been so frustrated in a film since
Igby Goes Down (our new pact: No Culkins, except for Rory). And usually I only get that furious when Gregg Araki makes a movie. Or Harmony Korine. Oh, now I'm furious again! Furious!
Culkin!
