all monsters and dust

15.12.03

Some things I have enjoyed (over)hearing recently:

A girl on McGill near Square Victoria, pointing out a passing train to her friends:

"I think I'm a trainspotter; I really am!"

Two men who apparently had some unfinished business going on when our office building lost power on Friday:

"You'd think they'd have some emergency lights in the bathroom!"
"I know! [exaggerated scared voice] I can't find my own wiener!"

Movie reviewer Kim Linekin and host Nick Purdon discussing Keanu Reeves's turn in Something's Gotta Give on DNTO:

"I was surprised, he actually acts better than a two by four here."
"More like a two by six!"

Which reminds me of how after we saw Elf, Smire turned to me and said: "This is the first time in my life that I have actually believed [Will Ferrell] can act!"

And while I feel that "act" might be too strong a word, I still found this movie hilarious, which was unexpected.
 




about

"The mind of the thoroughly well informed [person] is a dreadful thing. It is like a bric-a-brac shop, all monsters and dust, and everything priced above its proper value."
