girly crap

A multimedia exhibit on "girl culture." Funny sad heartwarming etc. Worth seeing.

I just watched my new favorite romantic comedy (well, I'll put it in under Addicted to Love): Someone Like You. Jane falls for Ray, who has a girlfriend, and he of course tries to have his cake and eat it too. Enter Eddie, the straight-talking womanizer who of course has a heart of gold. But nonetheless he wants new cow too. (There's this whole thing in animal husbandry where the bull only goes after cows he's never had before, so Jane makes up this whole theory about men doing the same thing.) Anyway it's slightly predictable, but still almost dark enough to satisfy me. I think it would have been way funnier if Eddie went back to his old girlfriend at the end, but of course not really a happy ending. And teh romantic comedy must have teh happy ending. But as long as everyone is properly snarky during the movie I'm happy. Plus, I think Hugh Jackman is the new Rupert Everett (except not gay, I hope).

I enjoyed what I saw of that girl culture exhibit, but once the slides started downloading multiple media files I had to shut it down. I'm at work and that shit gets monitored !

This was a lot harder to take seriously after I noticed that the text transcripts linked under "complete interview" not only weren't complete, they didn't even faintly match the audio. A few lines matched. More lines came vaguely close to matching. A lot of lines were missing. And other lines were in there that blatantly WEREN'T in the audio, in any way, shape or form.

That just leaves me wondering how much, if any, of the whole damn thing is on the level.

Only one of them was blatant like that, but yeah none of them were "complete".

I read the book version of "girl culture", and it had me going on a feminist rant for weeks.

It was good.
