Addendum

Since my posts are always inordinately long, I'm going to try out writing a short one, which is that I forgot to mention the converse of my theory from my last email, which is that I often don't care for stuff that you kinda have to have seen when you were a kid. So, when my roommates put on Labrynth during college, I was like, "What the fuck is this shit?" and hated it. Similarly, I can usually cause people to throw things at me with my blithe dismissal of the quality of Lord of the Rings (books and films), though I'm confident that had I read about Frodo's adventures when I was really into swords and dungeons and sometimes dragons, it would be some of my favorite shit ever.
