It started when I challenged myself to listen to all 29 AC/DC albums. This was funny for me (mostly because it annoyed my roomates), until AC/DC started to come across as the same 6 songs on repeat. This is when I first realized that AC/DC only wrote six songs and put them on 29 different albums in varying order and possibly changed the song title a few times...at that point I didn't feel like checking into it.
Anyways, back to the point (I don't intend this blog to have a lot of writing as that = work, which is something I have enough of and don't desire more of), this blog is intended to be an outlet for my reaction to absurd lists that I challenge myself to tick off...will I actually succeed in finishing any of these lists (my track record is not strong)? Who knows! Will I write something cynical, negative and possibly funny about each item I tick off...? You bet!
Ok last paragraph because I have something much better to be doing at the moment.
So my latest project is this... To watch all 250 movies on IMBD's top 250 movies of all time list. Do I agree with their list...not even a bit. I don't even want to watch most of these movies. However I do want YOU to have to read about how I feel about each movie...So heres the list...I don't want to hear your opinions, this is about me.
