Major Disaster: In lieu of a real update because I have the shortest attention span in the world

In lieu of a real update because I have the shortest attention span in the world

This isn't even really worth highlighting, except in that it's always nice when someone else (particularly a someone else who is a paid professional) validates your (often mocked) feelings. Why I love the movie Titanic:

[T]he drippy love story isn’t what the film is about at all. It’s merely the mechanism though which we see the film’s true subject — the boat.

Indeed.

And the Pats can't suck. Not after all the money I'm paying to watch them. I won't allow it. (Plus it's all I have to hold on to, seeing as how the Red Sox have decided to flush their season down the crapper.)
