Group rituals

Ok, I have a query.

Why do people go to movies in large groups?

I don't really understand the concept at all actually. I will admit, going alone is fairly dumb. Makes one feel like that loner kid in the corner that everyone either feels sorry for or laughs at. So I don't mind going in a small group; however, going in a large group? It makes about as much sense as getting a group together and staring at a wall for two hours. Commenting on the light changes occasionally. Actually, a better example would be gathering to read a book. Occasionally making quips about your favorite character or how the bad guy is a douche bag. Now, why is going to a movie more exciting than the book prospect? Perhaps because it is flashier, and easier on the brain muscles.

Another small thought. Why am I stupid enough to buy food at the theater? Damn. So freaking expensive. I actually could have seen three movies for the amount I spent at the theater today.

Oh, and on the off chance that you don't know. We went to see Quantum of Solace. It was ok. I'm no movie critic, and I make no claims to knowing what is a "good" movie. I did however feel that this Bond film lacked what made recent ones great. Pierce Brosnan. He was my hero for a long time when I was a kid.

Hmm, anything else to let y'all know. I have a plan for grad wear. That if it goes through I will be the happiest grad ever, or at least one of the most stylish. =P

Also, I have been thinking about my next piercing. Which I will probably get in four or five months. I have been thinking nose or another ear. The ear would probably be a Daith or maybe Tragus. I don't even know which side it would be on. I am going for a project on my left ear. So maybe there. By the way, you don't have to understand what I am talking about when it comes to piercings. It took me a while to figure out all the lingo and such. Look it up, but be careful. There are some... interesting piercings out there. Which involve genitals. Male and female genitals. Crazy.

Oh, just a heads up, but Opeth is amazing.
