Weekend Epiphanies

1. All Kevin Smith movies suck. As a young impressionable film lover, I may have been influenced by Clerks' bawdy attitude or by Dogma's bold concept, but having had time to reflect and to see them again, it's clear that they suck. Chasing Amy sucks. Mallrats sucks. Jay and Silent Bob sucks the worst. And I can guarantee that although I haven't even seen it, Jersey Girl sucks. Any belief in the contrary would be absurd.

2. Sloppy Joes are disgusting. The thought of them makes my tummy turn. The soggy bun. The spicey ketchup flavor. The mess-hall vat of slop feel of it all. Gag. What some people can bring themselves to consume is beyond me. They are like hamburgers that someone already ate.

Its about time you realize Kevin Smith is an awful film maker.

And since you hate ketchup, it would stand to reason you'd hate sloppy joes. I love them, but only when they're made right- the way my mom makes them. Good grub.

I have never really liked sloppy joes when I was growing up but I could at least tolerate them. I think since I moved out of Mom's house 15 years ago that I have had sloppy joes once. and I don't care if I have them again.

I honestly can't remember my last sloppy joe. It must've been at least 20 years ago, but I can still remember the taste and the smell and the - erp - texture like it was yesterday.

Jennifer will never...never live down the fact she ordered a sloppy Joe at the north memorial cafeteria.I really and truely think less of her.
I wen't to Mary Tolefson's birthday party when I was like 8 and her mom served up sloppy joe's as Mary's birthday dinner.I wouldin't eat mine (because I would rather eat my own vomit than sloppy joe's even more so some random neighbor's homecooked sloopy joe and Mary's mom said since I didin't eat my sandwich I would not be able to have birthday cake either.I have not thought of that since it happened...That seems awful heartless to deprive me of cake with all the other kid's because I was the only one smart enough not to eat her nasty slop.Now that I really think of it why would you enforce your no dessert untill your sloppy joe is gone rule on me?I'm not her kid.Was me getting the nutrience from that sloppy joe that important to her?Or was it because I bruised her ego and led her to belive that she did not make the wisest choice when selecting a birthday menu for Mary.No birthday cake.How cruel is that?

Wow, that Mary Tofelson's mom was kind of a bitch. But that happened to me at every single birthday party and sleepover I've ever attended. I remember being forced to eat scrambled eggs that were runny to the point of being soup, jello with NOODLES in it, and casseroles with undeteriminable ingredients. And sorry, Kris, but your mom's Chicken A'la King is barfworthy. Same goes for the "Gumpies".

Gag. Rupe {{{burp}}}. SloppyJoes are really gross.

I also had to eat cold cream of wheat at my aunt suzie's
And I remember Kris and I making turkey roast,mashed potatoes and corn at her house when Mr & Mrs Malecki were out of town.Turkey roast sucks you cook it for like 8ours and it still is revolting...I liked it then Kris...Swear to God.

Julie Cottew made me eat her mom's homeade pot pie,which I typically rule out foods that smell like body odor from my diet and the worst of the worst was eatting homeade ...urp hashbrowns frozen chicken patties and mountain dew after cleaning old man Lester's dusty,nasty,dog hair infested house.I actually feel scared recalling that horrific memory.

If Mary Tofelson or Julie Cottew Google their names, you are so busted. Oh and Dan, gumpies are good, but I guess if it's not a soft taco you won't eat it.

Turkey Loaf is the pukiest, especially that wierd clotted gravy substance they put all over the it. And the smell it makes in the kitchen for days afterwards. Jen-E-O should be ashamed of themselves.

Sloppy Joes, the ultimate example of man's inhumanity to man. No, wait, that's Necco Wafers... Every sleepover or lunch at a friend's or relative's house the mom would always bring this crap out like it was a treat. "Yaaaay! Sloppy Joes!" (sound of cat barfing hairball)

You're a fucking clown shoe.
