I thought the Hobbit was going to be shit and it was half shit and then got better near the end
I slept through a bit of it though, when it had been on for seventeen hours and they were still in the fucking Shire.

Alt: My boss is in France and is a Frenchman, we have a weekly video conference with him and no-one can understand what he says, so we just get on with things normally. Best boss ever.

I'm struggling manfully on, but it is difficult.
I just console myself with the knowledge that one day I'll find somebody that's desperate enough to sleep with me.

Eventually.

(Poppet some assembly required., Fri 11 Jan 2013, 10:48, Reply)

It was dull and got duller and then some shit happened for some reason and then no-one could talk for five seconds without spouting exposition and going into fourteen hour long flashbacks
Then there was Doctor Who having wacky adventures and then some trolls turned up and were LOL and had a really poorly choreographed fight and then some elves turned up and were as shit as they've been in anything with elves in, and then they all talked in some wacky language for a bit just so you could pretend it was a fancy foreign film, then Queen Elizabeth and Scaramanga spoke for seventeen hours even though they had already said everything that needed to be said, then there were some stone giants for some reason and then it suddenly got good and I enjoyed it until the end.
