Thoughts on today

[andrewducker]

I'm very happy that despite the fact that the majority of my friends list disagree with me on the Iraqi War of Glorious Liberation (2003 remix version) nobody has unfriended me. It means that at least I'm not being horrifically offensive in explaining my views. Or possibly y'all are too lazy to get around to it.

the Magnolia review happened because someone at work posted a negative review that pissed me off. It went along the lines of "This film was odd and too long and confusing. I wish I'd gone out to the quiz night instead." I felt compelled to write a rebuttal and ended up with something I'm very proud of. I realised this evening that a large chunk of the reason I have my journal is my need for affirmation. I found myself wishing that more people would tell me they liked it. Fortunately another large chunk of the reason is because I just plain like writing, so that's ok.

I came home, finished off the bookshelf, went shopping at Safeway for the housewarming tomorrow, did some tidying up around the flat and am now going to bed.

I'm looking forward to seeing some of you tomorrow.

Heck, my slanted poll worked great. Though, I'm not sure if my side-point on why polls are bad was understood by more than a few (I know broin and wibbble knew damn well). I have to admit that I've cheated by not out-and-out listing all my views, but a huge part of that is that I've been taught to question everything. >_> That can keep one on a fence or hopping back and forth a bit.

I 'ven't been unfriend either. I suppose that means people respect my opinions even if they don't agree with me.
