Professional jerk
I hear ya. I don't think it's bad or anything. I think that's why it has such a following. Even jerks like me can't argue against it but it's just sort of a "whatever" movie.

This is another one of those "why am I telling you guys?" Stories but it's not really much of a story. It's more just a thing I was reminded about and now you have to read it. Congratulations for being my internet friend.

I've always worked for big shitty companies. The one advantage to that is that no one was scrambling to give you a check after a 50 hr work week. I tried too hard in the wrong places at that dump. Some of that is on me. I get that now.

There are some people in comics who are proud of every page they make. I'm not talking about them though. I'm talking about the people who think and worry.

Hernandez bros are my best example of quality work-horse cartoonists. I wonder how often they sit back and say "I nailed this one"

Not trying to compare myself, just curious how often hard working comics people say "hey this is pretty fucking good."

Ah, really? That sucks.

I try to not be too attached to books when a movie comes out but there are a few instances that I can't shake.

I have a few friends who have gotten major recognition for goofy shit they did while working on stuff they thought was important. I've had people compliment me for things I find trivial. Not sure why I'm saying this. Just a sock in the arm I suppose.

Also, like all these x-mens, it just turns to shit at the end.

It's like if wolverine had a connection to italy and it was all mafia and gondolas. It's pulpy and fake, I get that but it's also lazy and boring. Kudos for making wolverine a gross hobo though. 2 thumbs.

On the plus side. I like how simple the package is and that it's printed to make it clear it should be stored spout-side down. I'm trying to find the good parts. It's thick and creamy. Tastes like garbage. Maybe a thick potato? Might go well on a thick potato.

Good to know. We don't have it close to where I live but I've always heard it was good (food wise.) If the sauce is any indicator, I'll just go to my grave never having tried it.
I'm so disappointed in the stuff, every time I open my fridge I look at it like it owes me something.

I suppose it's the difference between learning something and being told something. I'm pretty good at one and terrible at the other.

I did have someone correct my pronunciation of the word Pillow though and that's still stuck in my craw. Fuck that person.

I keep trying it, in a "smell this milk" way. It's never going to get better but it cost like, five or six bucks.
