The Simpsons Movie

You know, not to get too off subject (and this touches a bit on what's being posted here) but why, when something is against (as Alex so perfectly put it) critical grain, or even the opinions of our friends and family, do we feel so ashamed or even embarrassed for enjoying it? Why do we find ourselves arguing to be understood or throw ourselves into justifying our opinion as if anybody's opinion is even remotely greater then ours? I'm not saying this in reference to anything written on the Board (I've only read a few posts in this Thread). I've been thinking about this ever since I saw Transformers, which was a movie that all of my friends and family enjoyed. I thought it sucker harder then half the girls on Prom night (excluding me. I was a good girl

). I found myself thinking, "what's wrong with ME?". I found myself wondering why we put so much stock in other's opinions. Especially when they contradict ours. Especially since my opinion often doesn't match that of the masses.

Worst. Post. Ever. I'm off subject and who really cares, right? I need a friggin' Midol. Maybe 10.

Back to The Simpsons.

I saw it again last night, and absolutely LOVED it. I was able to relax more, I knew what to expect and I was able to hear jokes that I had missed the first time around. I couldn't stop laughing! It was lots of fun.

Now I've taken to calling my parent's dog "Harry Plopper". I can't stop myself, it just makes me giggle.

LOLOLOLOL!! I'm picturing that scene in the movie! That little pig sitting there, with the Harry Potter glasses and scar. I can't stop singing "Spider Pig"! I must have sang it outloud all the way back to our car last night. My boyfriend is tired of me singing the first 1/2 and then saying "take it!". He really doesn't dig on dueting with me.
