Sometimes, I hate having to get dinner every night. Especially since it's just me and dad, and he refuses to give me any input, instead putting the decision all on my shoulders. Hell, I'm getting bored with the same-old, same-old take-out.

I'm pondering Transformers. Yeah, yeah, I know, it's live-action and Michael Bay and we're supposed to auto-hate it and feel all trendy and such. But, I have to admit, if I were to go, I'd be looking at 'Are the Special effects cool? Are there lots of giant robots and explosions and nifty stunts?' I find myself, when I go to see a movie, thinking 'How should I approach it?' With Transformers, I'd be going for pure brain candy. Special effects. Not looking for Shakespeare...or even the original Transformers movie.

But, I'm still undecided.

I have tomorrow off, and I'm happy about that. I am...well, I did just get off the phone with dad, and he didn't mention my sister or brother making our plans or decisions for us for tomorrow like they usually do. And I have Neverwinter Nights 2 sitting in my computer untouched.

I have options, I think.

Dammit, when the hell did my hate become 'trendy'? This will not do. I'm also wondering if you've been swimming in the wrong internet tubes, because I've been taking flak for refusing to submit to this movie's alleged awesome and win. This could boil down to the fact that my intense rage-on for Bay predates Pearl Harbor and originates from Armageddon, which people keep trying to tell me was a "fun, brainless popcorn movie". I take this about as well as we'd take someone telling us that The Holocaust never happened, or that F.A.T.A.L. is a better, faster-playing, and more realistic RPG than D&D that doubles as a light-hearted sex romp.

So you enjoyed The Rock? :)

Oh hell no. Before Armageddon, Bay was just a guy who specialized in vapid summer explosion movies. It was just a coincidence that waited to see his movies on cable, and they were very 'meh'.

I was fool enough to pay for Armageddon. That's two and a half hours of my life I could've better spent.. I don't know, sorting my comic collection, or driving a twelve inch railroad spike through my dick.
