Pirate wank!
It all starts when someone asks whether Michael Bay should have directed "Pirates of the Caribbean".

The response is a resounding no.

And then people jump in defending Michael Bay, and it quickly becomes the good old "intellectual stimulation" versus "mindless entertainment" debate.

The best part of the whole wank is the chocky starfish, though.

Oh god... I was ABOUT to say that "chocky starfish" made me think of chocolate, and your icon looks like such tasty goodness...

Your hunger for chocolate and the expression of your Utena icon gives me a mental image of Anthy backing away with a nervous expression on her face.

Anthy: "Uh... Utena-sama..."
Utena: "Must... have... CHOCOLATE!" *.*;;;

One, thanks to that link I know know that this exists, and my life will never be the same.

Two, according to the page, those tasty-tasty chocolates are not available within 100 miles of me. Literally.

Collectively, this makes you a Very Evil Person. Have a trophy.

Well, it's less that I say "I'm going to boycott this and this and not this", and more that "I'm going to boycott Disney! ... Sephiroth's in Kingdom Hearts as well as Yuffie? ........ DAMMIT! >.<"

But Kingdom Hearts is a Squaresoft product that just borrows Disney characters. It's like Who Framed Roger Rabbit? which is not a Warner Bros. film just because it has Warner Bros. characters in it.

Yeah, but it's got the Disney logo on it, which means Disney probably gets some of the profit from my purchase.
Alas, I have little willpower when it comes to cute ninja girls wearing belly shirts and unbuttoned shorts, and even less willpower when said ninja girls are accompanied by silver-haired bishonen with amazingly cool coats and swords.

I thought it was Battleship they played. Then again, they played a bunch of different things, and it's been ages since I last saw it.

Oh, and let's not forget the Grim Reaper: Rap Artist part at the end. XD


BTW, FYI for the others here: I just heard the other night from a friend that Pizza Hut is having one of those "get free [random throwaway] movie DVD with the purchase of a large pizza" offers (at least, in Florida, they are). Bogus Journey is among the titles you can get, so those of you who've been wanting to keep up with Bill & Ted OTP goodness series fun but were holding off on spending money can get a sweet deal now. :D

Yeah, they never played chess with him, since they got to pick the games... off the top of my head, I can recall that they played the following:
Battleship, Clue, Magnetic Board Football, Twister... they may have played that game with the checkers where you have to get five of your color in a row, I can't remember... I saw it not too long ago, I think it may have been
Battleship: "Best two out of three!" "WHAT?!"
Clue: "Best three out of five!" "Aw, come ON!"
Magnetic Board Football: "... Best of seven?" ~.~ "DAMN RIGHT!" >.<
Twister: "All right, all right, you win!"

OMG. They're giving away free movies with pizza at Pizza Hut? Think they're doing it in Tampa?

...I guess it's too much to hope for for a free DVD copy of any Marlene Dietrich film, huh. ;-; Well, I'll settle for Wayne's World. *reaches for phone book*

Well, Blair (my friend) lives in Lakeland. I dunno how close to Tampa that is. Still, I'm pretty sure that offer should be applicable at least to that entire state or something... I think.

As for the movies, from what she told me, they already have a certain selection you can choose from. So while you don't have many options, you might still want to check it out for the off-chance there's something there that might catch your eye.

Ah, IMDB wank. I've wanked there often myself, no mistake, mostly on the Michael Moore boards... but it's just because Moore-ons are so EASY to smackdown! You can't lay those sort of people in front of me at the edge of the table and not expect me to punt them off!
