Superawesome

August 18, 2007 2:24 AM

r. Vice, pH, and I went and watched Superbad tonight. The movie surpassed all of my expectations, even though I was expecting a lot. It was definitely funnier--though not necessarily better--than Knocked Up, and both Mr. Vice and pH thought it was funnier than Forty Year-Old Virgin, although the jury's still out on that for me. What this movie definitely was, though, was all-out hilarious, and it didn't spend a lot of time on sentimental or romantic stuff. That might be a negative for some people, but I liked it. Although I generally don't mind a love story in my comedies, Superbad didn't compromise its objective--to just be a very funny comedy--by diverting any energy to something not funny. Even the one interpersonal conflict involving the main characters was resolved in an extremely funny manner. Anyway, I highly recommend it.

Earlier in the day, Mr. Vice and I decided to go play some golf. It was pretty cool, and I had what could be considered my best round of golf ever. Although we intended to play nine holes, we had to leave after only six. Still, I lost only one ball, fewer than I've lost on any other round. I think I once lost fourteen balls over eighteen holes. Another positive thing was that I was only about twenty strokes over par when we finished up the sixth hole. And I also, in all seriousness, hit some amazing shots, including a really good seven iron from the wrong fairway onto our green through some trees where I had a gap of about four feet to work with. That was awesome. The point here, of course, is that I'm a terrible golfer.

Anyway, today certainly constituted the high point of my weekend. You see, literally every single one of my good friends is out of town this weekend. I actually can't think of a single person that I'll be able to call up this weekend and go have lunch with. No one. It seems incredibly unlikely, then, that I'll be having any social fun this weekend, which is fine, I suppose, it just sucks. I resolve, however, to finally clean my apartment! Fuck yeah!

Agreed. The golf and the movie were both top notch. The laughs were pretty much non-stop, which is an almost impossible accomplishment.

Yay for the golf and the movie - but you're totally not going to clean your apartment. If you did, reality as we know it would cease to exist - good would become evil, white would become black, etc.

Plus, who needs actual social contact - just enter the World :)
