Four Rooms is a great movie you fuck

I actually haven't seen it. /:

Who the fuck gives people mixtapes lmao

1. president baker
2. every black guy ever
3. people who miss the forgotten art of mixtaping

Cool semi-blog, bro.

Thanks, holmes.

if you think that your fetishes are chosen by yourself you're pretty much admitting you want to fuck your own mother

Pretty sure no one said this.

You should also throw in Four Rooms if you do include From Dusk till Dawn.
Tarantino only directed one chapter, but still.

By that logic we should also included Sin City.

Was that before or after he tried to sell you the death car?

That was Cipher...

i wouldn't care either way, honestly

trust me on this

i play this man like a damn fiddle on a daily basis

Additionally, I'm going to ask for permission when the time comes

why?

Psychological tactic. By asking him permission, I'm giving him responsibility, which will make him more rational because other persons depend on him. He'll feel worse about it if I don't tell him and he  just "finds out".

Imagine youre in that situation. Would you rather your friend come up to you and say "look man, I rarely fall in love, but i've fallen for your ex. I've been really struggling with this over the last couple of months and it's caused me so much stress, but i can't stop thinking about her. i love her. but i won't do anything if you don't want me to -- your friendship means more to me than anything, and i wouldn't want to do anything to jeoprodize that." or "did you hear? jak and the manager's daughter are fucking on the side."

Okay, so... I need to get some sleep. I have to be up early tomorrow because I'm going to get breakfast with some friends... including her ex.

In conclusion, I'm going to pursue her romantically. But not until I think the time is right -- meaning, she is sufficiently "over" the other guy, and she is sufficiently "under" me. Additionally, I'm going to ask for permission when the time comes, but the answer to my question will be irrelevant -- I will go forward with my plans, and I will be graceful about it.

Thanks for replies, all. I'll keep making updates as time goes on. You guys were pretty sick tn.

Where does Pulp Fiction fit into that list?

Pulp Fiction is a good one-off, when you're bored. But it isn't essential.

It really requires an understanding of what Tarantino is about. It was the last movie I watched of Tarantino's, and I would've felt overwhelmed had I not grown accustomed to his style.

Also, it's his most overrated movie IMO.

Ask his permission at the very least.

Why would you need his permission? He isn't with her anymore and he certainly doesn't have the right to make decisions for you.

I don't need it, but it's an excellent tactic in psychological warfare. Instead of him finding out that I 'betrayed' him from someone else, I bring the matter to his doorstep, pleading with him to 'let me' fall in love with 'his girl' so that I may be saved from my miserable life. "Your happiness is in my hands. Please."

It's a lot harder to feel like shit after something like that.

Even if he said no, I'd still do what I want. But it's worth a shot.

Well, that's great, just tell her how you feel, something along the lines of "I like you, I find it easy to be myself with you, would you want to go on a date with me?"

I really feel like that would rush things, dude. Could jeopardize this entire operation.

She's your friend and should be among the first on the list of people that you can be completely transparent with.

I'm all for honesty, but like I said, it's ill-timed.

and more to do with "be graceful and conscientious about people's emotions".

That's all well and good, and I commend you on your sensitivity to the feelings of others, but you can't be throwing your own happiness under the bus just to make everyone else happy.

Watch Django with her before you see it to get her into that western feel.

Yeah, ideally. My problem with Django is that it shouldn't be your first Tarantino movie. Reservoir Dogs > Kill Bill > Inglorious > Django is the ideal order IMO. So I'd rather her see Reservoir before Django, than have to rush Django just so she "gets" what Tarantino's all about. Idk, I'll play it by ear.

Oh shit I didn't know that...
Kierra?

Nah, man. The Kierra ship has sailed. More than that, actually. It crashed somewhere in the south Atlantic trying to bring goods back from the new world to Great Germania.

He keeps trying to sick Anna's sister on me... which is fine, because she's great to look at. But I'd rather not agitate that situation, considering her relationship and the fact that she has a boyfriend.

For me though, I don't really care about being happy. Yeah, I'd like to be -- but I'm not going to sacrifice things I value more, like friendship, virtue, and honesty just so I don't feel like shit all the time. It's just the way I am, man.

That being said, I've come to the conclusion that if things to progress with her, it's going to happen -- regardless of what he feels. I'll be graceful about it, though.

That's what I meant by my situation.
Rather potentially lose a friend if you make a move than potentially lose a job.

Oh.

Yeah, fuck everything else. If I can be in love, I'm going to be. I'm going to handle it as gracefully as possible, but if she's down, there's nothing he can do about it.

I watched it the other night after not seeing it for years. I appreciated it much more this time.

It's Tarantino's best, tbh. Reservoir Dogs and Jackie Brown are close seconds, though. That opening scene is perfection.

I kinda want to watch it again. Right now.

There's never a good reason to not watch Tarantino.
