office space

snerk snerk snerk... okay so i might be behind the times but i have finally watched office space, which is so funny! i don't know if people in other work environments would find it as funny, but man i did... apart from the fact that jennifer aniston is in it. because i hate her. well, not her obviously since i don't know her, but as an actress i just think she's always playing exactly the same character with exactly the same facial expressions and mannerisms. oh look it's the tilted head frowny pout face... again!

 

but aside from that - what a funny movie... i mean the geeks getting back at the Man with a virus 'like in superman 3'... looking up money laundering in the dictionary... oh and my favourite lines... 'if i had a million dollars, i'd do nothing' 'shit, you don't need a million dollars... my cousin's broke and he don't do shit!'... ok ok so i've probably misquoted but whatever you know.

 

but seriously it made me think... if i had a million dollars, i'd want to do nothing too!!! really. like absolutely nothing. i'd just bum around and read and maybe go shopping (with that million dollars remember) and watch movies and listen to music and surf the net over a dedicated T1 line and read some more books and... yeah. maybe this whole 'oh i'd be bored' thing is just sour grapes for all us non-millionaires. i'm thinking bertie wooster, i'm thinking english nobles, i'm thinking maharajahs... by all accounts they did ok!

 

the other thing i decided i'd like to do is be a naturalist... no, not a nudist, a naturalist... the kind that studies animals and takes people on field safaris all the time. that's a sweet job. drive around in a jeep and point out wildlife. maybe pet an elephant now and then. nice.
