Ooooh, I'm so quirky, OMG! — 42 weeks ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

Well, I wanted to like it. I truly did. Right to the end.

And right to the end I didn’t.

You can do quirky characters well (Amélie) and you can do them poorly (Kate Winslet in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind). Poorly = annoying.

I also found it bizarre the amount of utter crap he filled pages with – seriously, like 15 pages of library searches?? 5 pages of some fax he found? If I wanted to marvel at random shit, there is plenty of it all around me.

The insights weren’t insightful and I felt like I was reading the memoirs of a mentally deficient person.

Now, I also didn’t HATE it, but I did not like it. It was mostly boring and pointless.
