Is this a more subtle version of wanker's "just kill yourself now, bitch" line? Hmmm.

Now my ex-husband has gone and used that name for his baby. I suppose he was first-in-time, so he gets to use whatever name he wants, but now I'm annoyed because if I ever use that name it will look as if I am copying him.

Oh well. He seems very happy so I don't want to be petty right now. That's why I'm venting to you and not to him.
If you aren't planning on having kids, it is annoying but I don't see why it is a big deal. And if the situation arises where you do have one, assuming it is the same sex, then you can certainly reserve the right to name them the same thing. I would move past that and be happy for him. It is a happy time.

This falls under the "worry-when-it-happens" heading.

Bitch is funny. If you have a chance go see her live. Last night we got to see a two hour rant about such varied topics as her Catholic parents, Larry King, Oprah, Ryan Seacrest (their new and improved feud!), red carpet crashing and the American Idol Finale. I need her to start watching the reality shows that I watch so I can relate a bit better. She seemingly develops new material every fucking day without even trying.

(her all brown outfit did nothing for her, however. she could use friends like me to point this shit out to her. or she could just pay for a stylist or whatever, but I think that cuts against her D-List grain.)

LA people, you can still catch her tonight or tomorrow night at the Wiltern.

I would, but it appears that Ms. Gap and I are going to see Pirates of the Carribean this weekend. (With a $130 Gazillion opening weekend, we were possibly the only couple in America who didn't see it last week).

I've heard from various people that (a) it's about 45 mins too long, (b) it lacks the sense of fun that the original had, (c) it was largely "a non-stop audio and visual assault on the senses." Charming. What say you folks?

Keep in mind, even if it's as bad as whatever that crappy TV show fiasco's wife make him watch, I will still be seeing this movie. Ms. Gap is such a Depp fan that it really doesn't matter what the movie is like, just that he's in it. (To give you a sense of perspective, she thought he was sexy in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.) The man could spend two hours on film staring into crystals, drooling and rending his hair and she would be quite content.

Yes. I can barely sit in my chair you've made me so angry. How do you do it? Your genius is without equal (only topped by your outstanding sense of humor). You've got me right where you want me. I simply cannot tell when you're saying something just to provoke me. I am at your mercy. All of my responses have been completely sincere, while you pull my strings like a brilliant puppeteer.

But maybe, since you are so clever, you can answer this question: Do you think Zidane is easier to provoke than my avatar's namesake?

The answer is so elementary that maybe you have failed to see that you're making the same joke I and Paigow and countless others have made roughly 3,000 times.

Dumbass.

My apologies. You are the paragon of calm, and your snottiness the epitome of irony. Clearly, I was not the one joking here.

I loved it. I'm planning on going to see it again this weekend with both kids because last week it was just me and the Monster. Princess was off with her boyfriend (Thurgreed, after you shoot Sidd and Fringey can I borrow your gun?).

I wasn't bored for a minute. The characters were developed more in this one than they were in the first one. The special effects were cool, and I'm someone who generally finds special effects to be a pretty lame way to try and prop up a movie. The Wonk Monster's eyes were wide open with amazement through much of the movie.

There's even a surprise ending that actually comes as a surprise. True, it's just a blatant setup for the third installment but so what? I am going to see the third one anyway.

Per ticketmaster, there are no cheap tickets left for either night.

I actually liked it very much. Didn't think it was too long at all. Maybe I am just have bad taste, but I liked it a lot. Thought it was a lot of fun.
