Oddities of being me, I suppose

So I'm sitting in a study room at R.C.C. today and I drop a Real Genius reference (the scene where everyone is studying and that one guy freaks out, yelling over and over again as he exits the room, and the only response from the characters is to move his stuff so they can keep studying) and no gets it. I mean NO ONE. For Christ's sake here, it isn't like this is some sort of hard to find movie. It's Val Kilmer, a house full of popcorn, and a voice in a guy's head telling him to stop touching himself. It made me sad.

What exactly do these people do with their time? Did I happen to find the group of people that could name every single person who had ever been on any of the Survivor shows, but weren't able to recall one of my favorite movies of all time? I started to wonder if anyone in the room with me actually had a sense of humor? If not, were they laughing to be polite? No, that couldn't be it, because I am fucking hilarious. Maybe they were just so trashed by finals that their memories of anything bright and happy had been stripped away.

I'm betting it was just that they, like so many people I have met, have no taste in movies. These are the people that went to see Stomp the Yard. Oh God, I'm going to be sick.

Yes Justin, that means that you have no taste in movies. Seriously, you liked that movie? Good God... you just aren't the person that I thought you were.
