    I'm waiting for the concierge at work to get them. I have a feeling waiting at TKTS for hours and hours day after day would just break my spirit.

    I think Gaston was refreshing because most Disney Villains before him were always evil for evil's sake, or over the top in their ambition. Gaston wasn't outright evil, just a jerk.

    He was also especially good at expectorating.

    He had an innocent man locked up to procure the forced marriage of a girl that had no interest in him.

    Isn't that how marriage works?

    What's so evil about that? Women are basically property. Like land or bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches.

    I have a problem with employers viewing facebooks simply because of what it leads to. An employer should never ever be able to make a hiring (or firing, or raise, or promotion) decision based on what you do in your free time as long as you aren't breaking the law.

    period.

    full stop.

    Is that still in theaters? I would like to see it but I thought I missed it.

    I almost saw Jude Law's Hamlet but it was supposed to be a date and the girl flaked on me (thankfully before I purchased tickets). Then I was supposed to go with a different girl and then I found out she was married.

    I ended up not going at all.

    I have only been in New York once, and during this time I watched Avenue Q.

    Time well invested.

  • DrezDrez Registered User regular
    Actually, I think we only saw Cats because "Memories" was always one of my mother's favorite songs.

    Avenue Q was pretty awesome. Saw Rock of Ages this past winter. That was also awesome.

    More awesome get-rid-of-any-semblance-of-privacy laws in the name of protecting people in a highly ineffective and inefficient manner

    They had this thing on NPR yesterday. People complaining about employers checking Facebook statuses and the like.

    Problem is, it's not a violation of privacy if you have your FB open for anyone to view.

    It's... it's not my own, private internet?

    There is a difference between what you read/watch/otherwise passively observe on the internet and what you say.

    Moreover, there's a difference between what you might post on a public-facing internet server and what you might route through an internet connection in, say, a VPN

    @Drez Avenue Q is still playing at New World Stages I think. Tickets aren't too much since it's off Broadway, but still a really great show. GO SEE IT.

    @nexuscrawler I'd be down with Friday!

    I saw the Addams Family on my next trip, and lo, it was distinctly meh.

    Why is Cats popular enough to run for a decade at a time?

    (Possibly now ex) girlfriend got the results back. She has huntingtons. Went around to see her when I found out even though she said not to. Her best friend was there and told me to leave. Blocked on facebook and messaged to fuck off. Fuck.

    The System is all about how we misunderstand statistics.

    He sends someone anonymous tips for horse races that accurately predict the winner, then contacts the person and just keeps winning and winning.

    Then he convinces the person to bet their entire savings on the final race.

    Drez and Nexus, you two have to stop posting right after each other. Your AVs are making my brain hurt.
