Men who gave up on dating, what happened?

I think social media has destroyed most women mentally. It’s had less of an effect on men because they don’t use it as frequently and when they do, don’t care about it as much. I truly believe social media combined with smartphones is an enormous cognitohazard, and that it affects women far worse than men.

On social media, women are told that their presence (and vagina, because men are nothing but raging sex beasts, natch) is enough — that they do not and should have not to do anything nor contribute a single thing to a relationship. Then they act all shocked pikachu face when that turns out to be untrue — but still take no lessons from it.

Social media of the Facebook/InstaGram variety is pure poison and ruined an entire two generations of women. There are a whole lot of 3s who think they are 10s and who deserve the princess treatment. They don’t realize, though, that they are just princesses of a meth-encrusted Port-a-Potty outside of Flint, Michigan. And then wonder why millionaires over six feet tall with six packs aren’t flocking to them.

It’s a mystery, that one.

I’m not the stalking type (who has the time for that nonsense?), but if I do become one and you want me to stop stalking you, just get a coupla tattoos. That’ll be the end of that. I’m petty, I know it. But I cannot help it.

Dang, Darby in A Murder at the End of the World is a snoopy kewpie. She paws through more people’s stuff than a Labrador who smells some beef jerky somewhere.

Good character but I’m not leaving anything laying around if she’s there. She gonna start pawing and licking.

Hate horror all you want, but I think Dawn of the Dead (2004) has the best opening sequence of any movie made before or since. What a banger. I’m having trouble thinking of a film that comes close to that open. Maybe Leone’s Once Upon A Time In The West?

The Matrix is also a strong contender. I saw it in the theater and the bit in the cold open where Trinity jumps and the film goes into bullet time, the whole audience gasped. That was magic. Glad I got to experience that.
