What the hell happened to this list over the last three months or so. There
was a time when we all talked about Blair Witch and Eyes Wide Shut without
fear that someone would get pissed off that they are getting "too much"
email. No one complains when a person posts a critique of the new Red Star
Theory, or that they are going to see the Get Up Kids, so what's the
difference? If anything this lists lets us talk to people with somewhat
similar opinions on pop culture. Cant we all just get along?
Oh and I'm getting pretty sick of my emial box getting filled with 10
complaints about off subject posts every night. Maybe we can meet at some
common ground.
