mexicans
Apparently Mexicans really, REALLY like racing movies.
When Adrienne and I got out of seeing Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift tonight, the first thing she said to me was "There were one and a half white people in that theater", referring to the fact that she's half-Japanese.
That was freaking nuts. I would say that Mexicans are loud and annoying in movie theaters, because that place was a goddamn zoo, but that's the experience I have at every movie I see these days, because I'm old and growing to hate all of you. Most of all those of you who think you can come to a movie and talk to your friends without me killing you and using your corpse as a chew toy.
Anyway, the movie was fun and loud and stupid, and I highly recommend it to all of you. I was really surprised when I got home and looked up the trivia on IMDB to find that all of the drifting was real. That actually makes it even cooler in retrospect, because some of those moves they did just seemed completely unreal they were so sick.
As a side note, I've come to accept the fact that I'm Square Enix's bitch and there's no need to fight it. I've played through a little over half of Kingdom Hearts 2 so far, and I can't even stop watching the intro movie:

Here's the thing. I'm playing a game where I'm a kid running around with Disney characters. But yet it's more engaging and produced better than damn near anything else you find in the RPG world. Square Enix could do an RPG where you spend the entire game getting better at flipping burgers and I'd probably play it, because they'd have some sort of complex burger flipping ranking system, and cute little chocobos who evaluate your progress, and some sort of dark Vegan level boss.
Point is, Square Enix is cool, and so is that video I posted above. They make videos like no other company out there.

You're absolutely right -- that is an awesome video, and I don't even have the game.
Elaina and I were out with Chelsea and Shaun, and the trailer for Tokyo drift came on. When it finished, the girls turned and looked at each other, and pulled a face, saying "I don't think I'll be seeing that". At the same time, Shaun and I turned to each other, and said "wanna go see that when it comes out?".
The sex divide, big as ever.
