American friends want me to like the today show and I pretend I do as it seems to mean so much to them.
But really I find it kind of dated and obvious. Sarcasm, ironic style wit has to have a certain delivery along with it to make it click. But that Stewart guy just kinda goes 'uh huh huh huh I'm saying something but I mean something else! you get it huh huh huh?'
bland.
I dunno, tries too hard I think.

You mean "The Daily Show?"
"The Today Show" is a different show entirely... |

i hope you never become a film critic, because you lost all credibility with saying Inception was bad. Easily the best film on the year. |
Inception was a well done movie! except for the fact walking out of the cinema I felt like I had been living a life of heavy drugs! the movie made me feel so out of place...To over powering for a movie. |

Sounds quite along the lines of a Republican like you, Patrick. Next thing I bet you're gonna be stabbing bums in the eyes. |

Yeah maybe it's called that. The one that's mostly political satire. |

- jam bands (horrendous waste of time)
- Gangnam
- Club Eden, Club Answer, and Club Volume (wasted 120,000 won right there)
- flavored soju (way too sweet)
- true religion jeans
- menthol cigarettes
- the place in Suwon where you get 15 minutes with a blow-up doll
- Dr. Fish
--------------------------------
The best things that people won't tell you about because they are awesome:
- the g spot bar in Anyang, where Korean college chicks go in droves specifically to party with the foreigners that know about the place ... that place is incredible, a true NYC style back alley club, blows anything in Seoul out of the water. In case your wondering where it is - I won't tell ya. You have to ask around for someone to take you. |
