here i come to save the day.
...and then there's unfriendly guy. he was our resident poet at the grad bar, who bunny and i befriended unfriendly guy a few months back... (incidentally we also commanded k-baggle rock to seduce him, which yielded plenty of controversy to say the least...) so i'm sitting around reading books and talking on the phone earlier this evening when he blows in pissed as a newt with a delivery to dvd's for me to watch. the email exhange leading up to this moment was also quite rich:
from: unfriendly guy
date: 15/05/2006
to: evil
subject: i hate you
in the spirit of my disgust and contempt for the likes of you and if i am going to loan you one movie, i might as well loan you everything of interest to your sorry ass. this is an itinerary you can select from:
the animatrix
adaptation
run lola run (german, subtitles)
reefer madness
big fish
hero (chinese, subtitles) [one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen]
shane (classic western, predates brokeback motif)
the hulk
donny darko
man on the moon
eternal sunshine of the spotless mind (******)
man with no name trilogy
all the indiana jones movies
the man who wasn't there
the office (full series british)
nothing i have listed is worth ignoring. however, prudence is recommended in making any decisions as you already know.
until you respond,
unfriendly guy
my reply was as follows:
from: evil
date: 15/05/2006
to: unfriendly guy
my top five: donnie darko, reefer madness, shane (why the fuck not?), hero (also why the fuck not?) and the office...
i'd be willing to host a viewing of one or more of these films tomorrow night at chez evil. you supply the flicks and witty commentary, i supply the drugs and alcohol...
your enemy,
cunt
needless to say, when he arrived a night early i adopted a 'if you can't beat'em" posture (as you do) and trotted him off to the beer stand to join in on the fun... we watched donnie darko, and he staggered away into the night.
