Things that irritate me today:
[list=1][*]The check out people at Target seem to think I need a separate bag for each item that I buy. This is not a one-time occurance. It is an enterprise wide policy. [*]No one sells magnetic refills for photo albums anymore. They sell refills for "scrapbooking," whatever the hell that is, but not magnetic refills. I suspect it is because they want me to buy another photo album.[*]The linen shirt that I spent ten minutes ironing this morning was wrinkled by the time I got to work. [*]Yahoo IM still is being a pain in the ass. I'd suspect the guys in IT security, except AOL IM is working. [/list=1]

Things that make the above a little easier to bear. [list=1][*]Taco Cabana still sells tortilla soup. I thought they only serve it during what passes for winter here.[*]Heavy drinking is only a few hours ahead of me, and my weekend starts in less than 24 hours.[*]The Displaced Dog shows no sign of infection or discomfort from his recent surgery, and his dreadlocks remain intact.[/list=1]

The conspiracy is industry wide. I end up with somewhere north of 30 bags after each trip to safeway. (And, to forestall fatty remarks, if I ask for paper they can get the stuff into three or four). It's something about those plastic bags that are so alluring to the bagger/checkers--maybe they get paid like it's piece work and the metric is bags used.

I like all the bags. I know that they are all going to end up in landfills and in like 16 million years will be used as fuel for my SUV.

While I agree with the sentiment, let's end the paper vs. plastic discussion here.

Disturbing. Very disturbing.

For instance - they cite "visible crew/equipment" as one of these "plausibles" complaints. Well, that's a pretty legitimate complaint. These prevent you from suspending disbelief (e.g.: 6th sense - the visible tops of sets and sound booms drove me bonkers).

FWIW, I remember Roger Ebert saying something like 90% of visible boom errors are actually the fault of the projectionist, because the film format is designed to have some of the image "spill" over the top and bottom edges of the screen to assure the screen is filled. Thus, there is some "scrap" image at the edges of the projected image. A lazy DVD editor will then just cram the entire film image onto the disk and memorialize it forever, instead of cropping it the way a professional projectionist would.

Many film buffs are of the view that projectionists used to be artists in their own right, and now they're all pimply teenagers who "set and forget," and totally fuck up the projection. (See, for example, last week's Movie Answer Man about a missing 45 second scene in "Hellboy" thanks to projectionist error. Contains spoilers in that it describes the scene, which isn't particularly crucial.)

Presumably this excuse wouldn't apply equally to films shot to digital, but maybe it would.

OK, I'll give up being Barbie if I can just be Heidi Klum. But where the hell is her navel?

I licked it off!

or, I think those are some pretty-high rise (Hi dtb!) briefs, and I think they are right at the level of her navel.

Or, it got removed during the extensive airbrushing. They aren't THAT high cut.

Do you think it would work to be DPed in the navel?
