Are You Not Entertained?

here's something weird that I remembered about myself yesterday. because, you know, there's never enough weird things about me as is. always got to be more...

back when gladiator came out, i couldn't quite wrap my mind around it. for some reason, i thought that all movies were only ever about the present time. or, at the utmost most, movies could only be based in a time that could still be faked thanks to buildings or settings that were still around - like the patriot, which also came out that year. but there was no way in my mind that a movie could be based in a time as long ago as the height of the roman empire - i thought that if anything gladiator had to be some sort of weird movie about a man who thought he was a gladiator and was trying to recreate roman times in the present.

i didn't actually see gladiator until a long time later, and then when i finally did it just blew my mind. s'probably why it's one of my favourite movies now...

Depressing?

So, whenever I talk to anyone about what kind of music they listen to, there's one thing that's always the same.

"I hate country"

And it sort of clicked with me yesterday that I dont really understand why. If you look at all the other genres out there, why is country the one that's so unanimously hated? It's mostly just guitar and simple melodies - just like a whole of other genres (pop, pop rock, punk rock, pop punk, etc...)

You think less people would hate it and hate things like, oh I dont know, death metal.

Roight

man, now everybody's blogging, and here i am with absolutely nothing to say!

already moved home, though all my stuff is still in boxes. going to paint my new cubicle room before i attempt to cram all my junk into it. on that note - got to get rid of some of my junk!
