[tjamick]

i live in pittsburgh, and its this saturday and sunday. i'll post a picture.

[klaus_kinski]

Reservations have been made. I will be there. I am sure it will be hilarious and entertaining, but another part of me thinks it is going to be very lame and 'safe' as it is for VH1. Best not be prejudiced though. I will go with an open mind and an even more open asshole

Yes. It's a movie.

I know that much.

But I know a girl who likes Britney Spears, and she told me it was her favorite movie, so I assumed it was a Breakfest Club type movie.

[agent_PUNT]

I would like to mention that if you tell me I have to see it.... the same conversation happened months ago with the Royal Tenanbaums on this very website, so I saw it. I saw the shit out of it!

But it was rank.

[apotatojudge]

Dude, the dad totally dies and uses it to buy a pair of socks!

[agent_PUNT]

Well, I guess I don't need to see it now.

Pardon?

So what is the subject 'it' referring to in that sentence? Are you saying the dad died, and then used his dead body to buy some socks? If you are, you must pardon me questioning your grasp of basic English skills; that film sounds fucking awesome.



*Pali thinks to himself, 'Man, my penis is big.'


edit: The woman in that picture has nice tits.

[agent_PUNT]

Hey Pali, thanks for showing up.

Julie is quite poetic with her incoherent southern drawl.

[Pali]

I dislike the sarcastic way you type. Besides, I stayed on topic by mentioning that picture.

[apotatojudge]

agent_PUNT, and I think this was you, last night I was laying down to go to sleep and I was thinking about some pictures I had taken throughout the day and was wondering how they would turn out, and I said to myself,"what shirt did I have on?" then I had to open my eyes and look at my shirt. I was, like, "Oh, yea..." then I thought of you.

[agent_PUNT]

Yay!!! Thank God I'm not alone in this crazy mixed world.

Pali I was serious. You were late showing up for the party.
