"We were so cool on Star Wars/Scrubs. Now what?!" 

Garden State Refunds

I just walked out of Garden State, Zach Braff's directorial debut whatever. Twenty minutes into the movie I was wondering when the storyline would kick in. It's a love story that fills the screen the way a fart would fill a room. You don't know it's there but when it arrives it's so bad you've got to leave. I thought I could stick it out till the end based purely on Zach Braff being so cute, but I couldn't. I was so bored. There were more stimulating things I could do such as laundry to take down from the lines before it rained again so I thought to myself- I better get home and do that. I walked out after Natalie Portman's character burried her dead hamster with Zach Braff's character in her backyard pet cemetary on the day they met at a Doctor's waiting room. I mean, come on.

Collective Thinking

It's been raining a lot in Brisbane and it's been just beautiful. It's the perfect weather for staying at home with a good book/DVD. When I was at work one rainy Sunday morning, my boss said 'It's the perfect weather to stay at home and watch videos'. I'm pretty sure Chef said something similar. It led me to ponder the collective consciousness of mankind on such days. Do we all really generally have the same feeling on overcast or rainy days? I can only conclude that on such days, Mother Nature is on commission by Blockbuster.
