A conversation with my father. Him discussing a movie with me...
"Have you heard about the movie that came out that's a comedy about the Muslim country?"
"No, is it good?"
"I haven't seen it yet but I heard it's just hilarious."
"Well how is it a comedy? Is it exploring the comedy in the Muslim countries or is it just making fun of it?"
"I think it's just making fun of it."
"...That doesn't sound funny."
"No andy.. you gotta give these things a chance."
Thanksgiving (or any holiday for that matter) is dedicated to politically bashing me. Even to the point of viewing cultural respect as negative and stereotyping as positive. I was asked last night why I don't like Rush Limbaugh. This seems ridiculous as that-- even people who DO like Rush Limbaugh know why people don't like him. Constantly repeating universal political knowledge is so tedious when I go home.
I lost my wisdom teeth today. I'm surprisingly recovering well. 4 movie marathon, hydrocodone, and a care package from ma' girl. I'm literate already! The mind works, the homework flows, and I took off classes until Tuesday. I really really needed this time to sigh and relax. Who would have known it would have been caped in tedious political mouth dumping and pulling of teeth?
To those who are shaking-- the removal of wisdom teeth is NOT a bad experience. Follow the rules, take your pills, don't put too much strain on your mouth, and watch movies or play video games to occupy your time, and you'll be fine.
Movies of the day:
1. Gran Torino
2. Ghostbusters 2
3. Let the Right One in
4. Man of the Year
We'll see what tomorrow has in store for me. Wisdom Teeth removal is pretty fun.
