You have good taste in movies

Thank you! Also, I want to know why rom coms are the most realistic movies!

Because "realistic" movies are all gritty and sad and sure, that's a part of life. And it suckable and we should know about it. But you know what else is part of life? Falling in love. It's more common, nearly universal.

Moon is great. It could happen. But you know what DOES happen? Love, Actually

Enjoyable read as always. I particularly loved your use of “blah blah blah” as I use that too. But “it’s giving academic”? I don’t know if you wrote that line ironically, or if Gen Zed slang has actually managed to seep into you.

Speaking of AI, I just want to say how much I LOATHE that recent popular quote that was like “I want AI to do my dishes, not my art”. I actually like doing dishes, I find it therapeutic. But I can’t draw for shit.

Ha! I think Gen Z slang has actually managed to creep into my speaking style. It's wild. I think that "It's giving" one might be the only idiom I picked up though. Also, I can't draw for shit either, I love using the AI image generators.

For me, my Gen Zed phrase of choice is “say less”
