I watched an old soppy film last night from 1997 - 'As Good as it Gets' very funny in places. Oscars for Helen Hunt and Jack Nicholson, who is just a brilliant actor.

Today I am mostly be watching iZombie, My expectations were low, but it's really good fun. Zombies always get bad press, you know the deal, "fucking zombies coming over here and eating all our brains, we need to take control of our borders and only have a points system like Australia, they only let in highly qualified zombies". It's about time there was a TV series showing the good side of zombies. don't judge all the undead by what the right wing media says.

As Good as It Gets is a 1997 American romantic comedy film directed by James L. Brooks. It stars Jack Nicholson as a misanthropic and obsessive-compulsive novelist,
What the fuck is misanthropic? Google!
misanthropic
mɪs(ə)nˈθrɒpɪk,mɪz(ə)nˈθrɒpɪk/
adjective
- having or showing a dislike of other people; unsociable.
"a misanthropic drunken loner"synonyms:antisocial, unsociable, unfriendly, reclusive, uncongenial, unneighbourly, inhospitable, cynical, suspicious, distrustful, sceptical, jaundiced, narrow-minded"his misanthropic gloom"
Why the fuck use a pretentious fucking word like misanthropic when it just means a normal, everyday bloke?

ha ha, have you seen the film? It starts brilliantly and gradually goes downhill into the soppy romantic bit.
Nicholson is outstanding.

Of course he is misanthropic, like all the best people. I think I watched it years ago, but I have this amazing talent, I can forget almost everything I have ever heard or seen, so I get to enjoy films, books, meeting people for the first time, finding my slippers- over and over again.

Who are you? Do I know you? Did you steal my slippers? I remember when you could leave your door unlocked, if you were rich enough to have a door, and the weather these days is not proper weather like we had when I was alive.

Ha ha, I've only made it to the end of season four so far, which is brilliant. I don't know where everyone gets the fucking time to sit and watch all this TV I've only done the first season of Homeland as well, and that was even better than Breaking bad...!!!

Save me is really good BTW.
and suprisingly so was the remake of jumanji for a light hearted couple of hours.

My technique is to arrange my To-do list, all the things I need to do work wise, all the household chores I have to do, all that stuff. Then I throw that fucker away put a 'In a client conference' responder on my email, send the phone to voicemail - and watch telly.
