People, in general, are very judgmental. Myself included, seeing as though I'm a people. We judge people based on what they eat, what type of music they listen to, what they watch on TV, what they read, what movies they like, etc. What the hell should it matter to me that somebody likes Nickleback? Why is that something worthy of pointing and laughing about? Why do waiters feel the need to turn up their nose if they offer me wine and I choose, instead, to have a Coke or a tea? Did it ever occur to them that I may be in AA? Or that I simply find wine to be yucky and I'd rather have a refreshing Coca Cola? What difference does it make in the big scheme of things? Seriously? This has always bugged me. Even though I'm guilty of it. Guilty of the "You don't like Radiohead?!??! What the hell?" But even when I do it I wonder why later. Just one of those things. I like for things to make sense.
No matter how liberal people claim the entity that is Hollywood to be...look at the evidence to the contrary. Any scary movie ever created will kill any set of teenagers engaging in sex. Any movie involving a cheating spouse will involve somebody losing their shit and getting violent on the person being cheated with. And, erm...that's all I have on that. But still! Look at the signs! Buncha conservatives!!
I need a place that has better conversations going on about movies than what IMDB has to offer. I lose the ability to count above 5 after reading one or two threads there. I saw The Uninvited over the weekend and there's some major plot holes, man. So, I wanted to see what other dorks had to say about it. There needs to be a place for the coherent dorks of the world to gather and have dorky conversations that don't reduce my ability to spell my own name. I don't ask for much.
I'm going to be changing my cell phone service soon. I'm torn between AT&T and Verizon. Give me some word of mouth. Go!

Verizon! 1 - 0, motherfuckers!!
Also, this past weekend, one guy in my band said he didn't really like Radiohead and had never listened to any of their albums. I was like, "You're not a 58 year old man from Idaho. How can this be? Radiohead is pretty inarguable. It's like not liking sugar."
Oh, and I don't know any places to find adults talking about movies online. I usually just talk to you. Sorry.
I have been an AT&T customer for at least 15 years. I like 'em a lot. They have great service coverage.
As for customer service over the telly? They suck dick.
I'm Verizon, coverage is great, pretty much everything else sucks. G/F is At&t, coverage sucks along with everything else.
Maine: Verizon is very impressive. But they don't have the phone I really want. AND? No rollover minutes.
And yeah, I generally just talk to you about the movies, as well. But you haven't seen this one yet! Get on the stick.
Randi: If their customer service sucks, why do you like them? I don't have a dick for them to suck...
Rainwolf: Where do you live, though? All the AT&T people here have reported awesome coverage.
Word of mouth isn't helping!!
I use TMobile but their really starting to piss me off. All that contract crap. My husband has Verizon for work. But I am convinced all phone companies are just ripping me off. Let me know what you think of your pick.
Randi, on the phone...always ask for the customer retention department. They all have one.
