Gods, how much bandwidth is wasted in this sort of thing? And in "ack/threadjack" replies?

M'man [livejournal.com profile] fings once read that the vast majority of all human interaction boils down to "Are you still alive? I'm still alive. It's good to be alive, we two, who are alive. You still alive?"

On which note, have you seen the trailers for "The Number 23" ?

Never even heard of it. [Heads over to IMDb] Aha. Whoa. And, shit, when the Hell did Jim Carrey get craggly?

I think it's more the badass vibe he gives off in the "23" picture. I mean, "I wouldn't fuck with that guy" is simply not a thought I've ever had about Jim Carrey before.
