RT @Dealfatigue: MT @scottEweinberg re piracy "if I have to wait for it, I'm allowed to steal it." Good luck getting life to work that way. cc: @parislemon
RT @mastersofcinema: @gemko That you think you can justify experiencing all these for nothing because you have a one-a-day habit is much more absurd.
RT @gemko: @mastersofcinema That you seriously think the solution is for me to buy *every single title* and resell them all is absurd. Get real.
RT @mastersofcinema: @gemko You download films illegally because you can. All your attempts to justify it = whining. You're talking out of your backside. -NW
RT @gemko: @mastersofcinema I would rent it from a shop and return it, if that were possible. So instead I rent it from the Internet, and return it.

“I was never let down by the hot dogs, bought from Chicago’s irreplaceable Vienna Beef, which were split down the middle, griddled and laid in a toasted potato bun with or without the classic Chicago garnishes. Better yet is the Bird Dog, a smoked chicken and apple bratwurst from Usinger’s of Milwaukee How the burger could change lives I never divined, but on occasion it was magnificent, as beefy and flavorful as the outer quarter-inch of a Peter Luger porterhouse. More often, though, the meat was cooked to the color of wet newsprint, inside and out, and salted so meekly that eating it was as satisfying as hearing a friend talk about a burger his cousin ate.”
~ Critical Eating: NYTimes Resto Critic Pete Wells Makes A Mouthful Of Shake Shack
“There is an innocence – an almost monastic purity – about Adam Ant’s enduring devotion to pop; after coming off antidepressants a few years ago, he began performing live again, playing modest venues, often unannounced, and later this year he will release a new album. I find myself hoping his audiences are respectful, and kind. Though still beautiful, he has to wear hats and bandanas to disguise the fact that he is now bald. He was always very conscious of his own beauty – “I think to be a pop star you need sex, subversion, style and humour” – and the hair loss seems gratuitously cruel. “Yeah,” he admits with quiet sadness. “It was pretty awful. But – I dunno – you’ve just got to do what you can. It’s part of the job, really. Just gotta get up, have a shave, and get on with it, really.”
~ Adam Ant On A Life In And Out Of Punk And Pop
