I can’t take McConaughey seriously in that role though. I just keep picturing Wooderson strolling up to the plate, going “alright alright alriiiight…” he also gave too many damn motivational speeches in that Marshall movie for me to believe he could play a SERIOUS drug addict (as opposed to the chilled-out, happy drug addict he plays in his personal life).

I agree that Boston is hell on earth, or damn well near it. But his inability to distinguish between “your” and “you’re” embarrasses me as a New Yorker and makes me wish that this guy wasn’t one of us.

Making enemies on both sides!

Did New York become Titletown while I was away this weekend?

Thanks, Lyndsay! I feel like it would have been more than a jab (at least, a more developed jab) if I had more than 475 words. But the sprawling New Yorker article version will just have to wait.

For the movie version, if he weren’t already looking a little too old for this particular role, I would go with another Dazed and Confused alumnus: Matthew McConaughey. I feel like there is a strange resemblance there. And he seems to like to do these sports movies.

interesting column on Hamilton in the metro this week, Sarah. I liked that you brought a new angle to the whole drug addict story. I wasn’t expecting a jab at drug war idiocy. balls to you.

think in the movie version, Cole Hauser will get to play him? (Benny from Dazed and Confused, also in Good Will Hunting- I would like to post a photo here but I can’t figure out how)

The worst part of that story was the part where they said the hemorrhoids “probably need to be lanced.”

Ugh. Ugh, ugh, ugh.

this makes me particularly glad that I don’t work in a profession in which the causes of my sick days are broadcast across the country.

“Who wrote this ‘hilarious’ one, anal fissures?”
