i know someone who used to write the blurbs on the back of movie boxes. they never saw the whole movie, just the beginning, usually. and sometimes the end.
1. I used to be that way about marshmallows. I didn't even like them. It was just that they were there in front of me and my hand just happened to continue to grab more of them and put them in my mouth. And, I mean, once it's in your mouth, it's pretty much a disgusting waste to spit it out or something, so then you chew and swallow and next thing you know, holy heck! It's more marshmallows!
2. I bet some of those men and women are actually really smart and know that they're screwing the man by being paid money to half-assedly compose some synoptic teaser. They probably get together on Thursday nights for beers and cheer to whoever they're scamming the most dollars out of. The rest probably take great pride in their work and call themselves journalists or authors or something when they introduce themselves to new people. Really, when it comes down to it, what gets me are the folks who assess the quality of spraypainted leopard print on faux fur in slipper factories.
1. That's an awfully apt description of what happens when I eat licorice sticks. I have no recourse but to chew and swallow once one is in my mouth, and then, before I'm even through, holy shit! There's another one in there!
2. I can only such Thursday nights take place. It's such a happy scene. I don't think I've ever heard of leopard print quality control on slippers, though. That's totally new.
The trouble here is that I want - I ache - desperately, to correctly quote the packaging for the Battlefield Earth DVD, but I can't remember it and I can't find it online. The point is that, in the midst of summarizing the film, the writer chose to also point out the brilliance of the scene transistions.

I'm sure I've told you this before.
