sorabji.com: Last movie you saw: Men at Work

    I didn't know what I was watching and was going to give y'all a guessing game on this, but the plot was so stupid when I was typing it that I couldn't do it to you, so I found it on IMDB (very good search interface, unlike some websites we know)

    What amazes me is all these people giving it 10 stars in the IMDB user comments. 'Course, maybe I missed something, since I just watched about 20 minutes of it in an airport greasy spoon, with captions no sound, while waiting for a delayed flight. I think I saw most of the the beginning, with the pellet gun episode, the discovery of the corpse in the yellow barrel, the incident with the well-dressed "drunk" corpse being interrogated by the cop, and that was about when I left it. Maybe I'll catch the end in some other airport or hotel room. And maybe I'll be in a state where it will be the true laff fest for me that it intends to be. Strange things can happen. But if this piques your interest, by all means, rent it.

    shoot, looks like i have to get another identity, since this one seems to have been taken/mis-taken. what a pain in the keester, keeping up with all these aliases. no fun for anyone, even V i suspect is just spewing this invective pro forma for some mysterious reason

    Nelly,how come you post as a Girl? And whats with that tiny insignificant excuse for a beard I saw on your home page? is that the Charlie Manson look? (sigh) you must indeed be ready for another name change....tell you what Nelly,as a troll,your shit.,like your teacher used to write in your report, "must try harder"...and Nelly,dont give me any more bullshit about your fucking abortion.

    Whaddevah. NELLY, I'm worried about the job scene! It's semi-slim pickins around these parts. I haven't seen Men at Work, so I can't comment, but I am not particularly fond of the band by the same name. I just got back from Collection Development, and decided that collection development is scary yet exciting to think about.

    I just have one word for you Agatha. Metadata.

By agatha on Monday, January 30, 2006 - 09:34 pm:

    Yep, getting pretty durn tired of that term. Indeed! Also: paradigm.

By V on Tuesday, January 31, 2006 - 06:15 pm:

    paradigm:1,the set of all the inflected forms of a word,2, a pattern or model...just to save you looking it up,Nelly.
