my girlfriend’s roommate is always surprised that i like Korean food. she had prepared a dinner for us, tonight, and apparently the kimchi was not aged nearly enough. i tend to like my cabbage on the firm side, but i guess i’m not living unless i’ve had rotten cabbage. don’t get me wrong, i’d probably like the real deal. it’s just different to talk about a food not being rotten enough.
yum! (and that’s not lasagna)
later in the evening, i participated in a conversation over what pixar movies were the least enjoyable. i remain fairly confident that “cars” will always be on the top-ten list of the worst movies ever made. can you imagine any other movie being so patronizing and campy?
here’s a list of worn-out themes found in the movie “cars”:
1. good things are found “off the beaten track”. (and they beat this theme like an injured race horse)
2. big city guy enters a small town and assumes dominance.
3. “people” are better off going back to the way things used to be.
4. whatever, this movie sucksif you really liked this giant wal*mart marketing scheme, then you obviously don’t need to care about what i think. just watch your nascar and larry the cable guy, and pretend that somehow the modern world has passed you by. never mind the fact that the modern “country” culture being peddled by CMT, nascar, and nashville, shares no resemblance with how things used to be.
take a look at this music video of rascal flatts with the song they covered (for lack of creativity) for the movie.
if you could watch that and still believe that they have anything in common with people who live off the land, there is little hope for you.

never seen cars
don’t think i’ve eaten korean
i would say kimchi is best when it’s a little firm as well.
rotten kimchi is only good when you cook with it, in my opinion (ie – kimchi stew, kimchi fried rice, etc.)
what is that black thing you are holding in your pic?
