That is what I meant.

Dahmage’s new avatar is too small to see.
It’s a process. I can go through the first interview and it’s all fine but then I won’t get a second. Due to the time between responses, it actually left me out of a job, since I had one I didn’t really want, but waited to hear back from the one I did that I ended up without anything.
I’m so fucking sick and tired of this life I lead. It’s so monotonous and I don’t know how anybody does it. I keep getting turned down by everybody that it just sucks.

I wish I had the money to spend $70 on a Blu-ray set right now.
What’s the matter, yhwx?
Similar to Handman’s news, I got an interview for a job at a museum today. Well, more of a historical society, but still. Here’s hoping I get to leave my dull-as-hell QC job and finally put that art history degree to work as a collections and event photographer at REDACTED.
Hey, congrats joefavs! Here’s to you.
Designing Woman – After seeing Lust for Life, I was in the mood to watch another movie directed by Vincente Minnelli. This one isn’t as good, but it’s moderately entertaining. Gregory Peck is fun as always, and Lauren Bacall is okay. I was a bit bored in the middle but ended up liking it by the end.
What a shock, but mfm’s thoughts also came to mind.
Yikes. I’m in a similar situation. Funny how we’re all so fucked up in nearly the same ways.
Pretty sure everybody’s ignoring me again. I’m growing tired of them.
I had thoughts like this about my only two close IRL friends around November/December (I think I even posted about it here a little). Turned out that one was working, like, 6 weeks worth of 12-hour night shifts and the other had just started dating someone new and was nervous about me meeting the guy given our history (well…my history of reacting badly to things like that given my feelings toward her).
Point is, while it’s certainly possible that you’re right, it’s also very possible that they just have other shit going on that’s taking priority. God knows I’m shit at keeping in touch with people when I’ve got “more important things” happening.
Try not to focus on the negative possibility. But in the meantime, also try and put yourself out there and meet some new people, just in case the negative possibility ends up being the truth. And even if it doesn’t, then hey, maybe you meet a new friend to add to the group!
You’re right. But of the people I know personally, I’ve been told on multiple accounts that I’m A: The most awkward person they’ve ever met, and B: The most antisocial person they’ve ever met. So meeting new people, as hard as it is for normal folks, it seems to be even harder for me. I honestly don’t see any opportunities.
Pretty sure that airport directly inspired THX. Try Flint’s instead.
THX 1138 shot some scenes at LAX.
Unfortunately, it definitely shows. Or maybe that’s not so unfortunate, given airports are dystopian fantasies anyway.
I’m not familiar with Noodle_flinger, do you have a link to his cutlist?

It’s the same as the MGM but with altered colors.
I’ve wanted to see a lot of those for a long time, Dek. Amadeus is an all-time favorite, and I’m glad you managed to see the theatrical version.
Yesterday I watched:
Really messy movie. It tries to be comedic and clever but often fails and often doesn’t make much sense. Really disappointing considering the talent involved.
Of all the classic Hollywood directors they could have chosen to direct this film, Vincente Minnelli was the one that makes the absolute most sense. No matter what the content, all of his movies have fantastic, dreamlike visuals, so to direct a movie about a painter who often evokes the fantastic and the dreamlike, well, it’s a perfect fit.
Jesus.
I’m just always holding back this overwhelming sadness, and one drink made me damn near cry. I knew I’d either be sad or angry.
^ Haha, I remember those.
SPORE is one of the most disappointing games ever made.
i used to love it as a kid! what makes you think that?
Did you follow all the hype for over three years?
I got a job at a museum today. Well, more like volunteering. But it’s a start. I’ll get into the Library of Congress yet.
Very cool. What sort of museum?
Thanks everyone. It’s a military museum from WWI on, and somewhat new. I’m going to work on their network, and software, and hopefully whatever film collection they have (which isn’t much).
I managed to identify what it is they have, some 8mm Technicolor cartridges with a synchronized cassette tape for the sound. I know what to do to transfer it to digital, but that would require removing the film from the cartridges and splicing them, and I don’t know what they want to do with them.
I don’t remember, but I was never partial to drinking anyway. I feel my personality doesn’t mesh with it and I hate not having control over myself. It was awful. I was miserable and kind of spoiled it for the others.

I decided to have an alcoholic beverage for the first time in my life. It was also the last time. Not for me.
