back from work, back to work
I got back home and surprise surprise the maid bought the wrong type of milk. This drives me crazy almost as much as Vito the Chimp looking at me while I try to focus on my work. All sorts of disasters have to happen in my life lately.
I need to forget and soon I will start a movie, before I do anything crazy. To begin with, I emptied the 4 liters of milk in the sink. Then I wrote her a note. Then I sent her a text message, saying that it tasted like water and to never buy it again. Then I called her. And she replied "oh, but your favorite milk wasn't there". And I said "well, next time better nothing, because this one tastes like water". And she said "strange, because on the box it said it was good for your health and a lot of other positive things...".
This goddamn maid. After trying to get her to buy the right milk in vain for 6 months, I even went to the grocery store with her to show her precisely what milk I want. She bought it fine for 4 months, and now, when everything seemed to go perfectly, and I had congratulated her on doing a great job, she goes and buys the wrong type of milk again!
I need to drink a beer and watch a movie. If I don't get drunk i don't know what I'll do. I am also catching a fever, and already have a cold.
The good thing would be that I don't have to go to work if I am sick.
In fact I was just exaggerating, but that's my type of humour. In a sense I
manipulate my writing to make myself look more of a psycho than I am and create humour. But the stupidity of the people I describe is all real.
This quote almost always applies to my writing:
http://english.owu.edu/
All writing, even writing on the most serious of subjects, is a form of word play in which the writer manipulates language in order to shape a reader’s response.
I was googling on writers manipulating language and readers, and I came across it. I didn't read the rest and don't even know what they're talking about. But that quote is a good quote.
I exaggerate my problems so I can vent out my frustration and by doing that i create humour. I try to laugh at people and at myself, so I can feel better. If i write about Vito and the maid, then I can tolerate their stupidity and annoyances more easily. I suppose that's the source of a lot of sarcasm. It's a way to beat someone up with words, without having to pay the consequences. I can't get rid of the neighbours, I can't get rid of Vito, and I can't get rid of the maid. The next maid on top of being stupid would be a thief as well, so that's why I want to keep the one I have.
I now need a beer and I need a comedy. So I'll go in my list of movies and look for a director that made comedies I liked.
The first choice is this guy:
Farrelly Brothers (with ranking):
4 Dumb and dumber
12 The Heartbreak Kid
12 Kingpin
13 There's Something About Mary
It takes a genius to make 4 comedies that make my top 200 of movies. Yet he is beaten by Mike Judge on my list, in terms of ratings:
Mike Judge (with rankings):
6 Idiocracy
8 Extract
10 Office space
13 Beavis and Butt-head Do America
What else did they make that i haven't seen?
It's listed as Bobby Farrelly, and there's a lot I haven't seen:

I'll watch one of those and hopefully I'll fall asleep. That way I might recover from the potential fever. I might defeat an oncoming fever.
I'll watch this:

I also updated my list of movies worth watching with the total score by director.
