Second Star to the Right

http://singspiel-816.livejournal.com/
I frequently have a debate with myself, since starting this project. What's worse? LiveJournal, or DeadJournal? After two weeks of ruminating on this issue, I've come to a conclusion: they're both equally bad, but in different ways.
While DeadJournal is filled to the brim with melodramatic emo-goth cunts who think they're deep, LiveJournal is filled to the brim with melodramatic maybe-n0t-emo-goth cunts who think they're deep.
Subtle distinction to be sure.
The first post I see, July 20, 2008 confirms that she is in Austria. What does one do when traveling abroad? Why, watch three+ year old movies, of course!
In this three paragraph rant she (and this has to be a girl, because every guy I know who has seen "Sin City" confirms it's the greatest artistic achievement of the 2000s) questions the movie's quality.
But not for the reason one might expect. Not for the brutal violence, the copious (three that I can recall) castration scenes, or the blatant sexism. Instead, the reason is this:
The acting was horrible the story was horrible and suprisingly boring, and confusing, their were like eight story lines and none of them connected and none of them made sense in the long run so what was the point?

I know action movies can be really confusing in the story department. Except for Jessica Alba's pathetic performance (although she had a PG-13 strip scene so she might be forgiven for thinking she could act) the acting was really pretty decent. See, it was supposed to be an homage to film noir, something I doubt you'd know about because you are, after all, an idiot. Also all that other shit that didn't make sense would have been cleared up if you had bothered to, I don't know, fucking google search it. It's based on a multi-volume comic series and reproduced the first one faithfully, so therefore there's going to be sequels in theory maybe.
I can't be bothered to check the dates anymore so anyone reading this is on their own. This is rapidly turning into migraine territory.
So I kno I should have waited to watch the second doctor who but omg it was so amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT WAS LIKE WOW!!!!!!!!

i mean donna and the thing on her back so freaky

and well....ahh....cannot wait for season finale

although since we don't get a new season until 2010 i don't really want this one to end

One exclamation point will suffice, thanks. I get it. You're an excitable lady. Also "know" has a w on the end. Also you don't need to start every line of dialog with "like" as indeed like should only be used when structuring a simile. You remember similes, don't you? That thing your sixth grade English teacher went on and on about in an aborted attempt to make you sound intelligent?
Thank Christ on to the very last post.

by the way what does jubilant mean?

It's this kind of shit that makes me fear for humanity. The first dictionary was compiled in the 1300s and some people still insist on acting like they don't exist.
Here, I'll give you a lesson on how to work one of these fangled books. First, since this is the internet age and indeed both of us are on the internet we'll use an internet dictionary.
We'll go to www.merriam-webster.com because I'm an American and could frankly give a shit if the other civilized countries use Oxford-- okay it isn't loading. Great.
So Oxford dictionary. Their website does work.
Fucking goddamn.

and we type in "jubilant" and click the first entry that comes up.

jubilant

adjective happy and triumphant.

— DERIVATIVES jubilance noun jubilantly adverb.

You'd be quickly excused because you don't speak English as a native language, but you confirm in your opening entry that you're only there for a visit, so fuck you get an education. Also for the record I'm disappointed in her for not know what to do about her lack of knowledge more than the actual lack of knowledge itself. I'm not really sure what advice to give, quite frankly. I guess "be less of an idiot" but that's not really advice.
