Last Weekend Crazyness
Erin was sick but still came out. Chuck, Erin and I make three. On friday we hit up Loew's (now america's most expensive movie theatre) to see Lemony Snickett: A Series Of Unfortunate Events. Its a really good movie. Any critic that says Jim Carey can't act or that this was a bad movie is completely wrong. The previews also let us know that Hollywood is officially out of new ideas: Every movie coming out this summer is a re-make, with the exception of star wars, episode 3.
Right before the movie started, these four yinzers dressed like euro trash sat down in front of us. Immediately I could smell the skank of hair gel and unwashed body hair wafting up through the theatre. They stank. Even Hippies, the dirtiest and most unwashed people in america, would've stood up and tapped these guys on the shoulder and said, "Jesus Christ, man, take a fucking shower. Or at least cover that smell up with some pot."
It was so bad that Chuck had a bad taste in his mouth by the time the movie was over. Me, I was losing it. How, with so many shampoo corporations, could these four men, aroud or above the age of 30, has missed all the advertisements for softer, cleaner, non-stinking hair? How had they failed?
Then, after our great movie and poor theatre experience, it was back to chuck's for general mayham in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. This game has some of the lamest missions I've seen in my life. One is based off Dance Dance Revolution. They just added to many lame aspects. The whole "eating and having to work out thing" is so "The Sims". Then you've got the Dance Dance Revolution stuff. I'm sure these some lame stuff even later. The stats thing is kinda mixed, in my mind. In other words, if that's the direction the GTA series is going to go, I might stick with Xbox. Or Gamecube.
Saturday, was spent out in Cranberry with Jason and Lumi. Chuck got sick, probably whatever Erin had, but he felt OK enough to come along. It was going to be dinner and bowling.
I only bummed one cigarette, although Jason and Lumi must've smoked half a pack between the two of them. A good record. I haven't smoked since.
Dinner was rediculous, because Saturday in Cranberry must be "We don't cook, so let's drag our 5 children out with us to a nice restaurant" night. We eventually got to eat at a bar in a place called Monticello's pizza. Not bad pizza. Not bad at all.
I bowled a 95, which is something of a personal best. I choked on the last frame or else I would've gotten over 100 for the first time.
Erin kicked ass and got a 160, beating all of us last game. Chuck and I are thinking about setting up a bowling night. I'm all for it.
Then back to Chuck's for GTA 5.
