: I was just wondering why all of you people hold such a high regard for such an ego-maniac as Kevin Smith. I made the mistake of watching the Clerks animated disks with my idiot neighbor. After watching those two clowns walking around their place (which I'm sure is probably Kevin's or Jay's, seeing as how the sun has to shine on a dog's ass every once in a while), I couldn't be more afraid for the future of america than I am right now. How can people flock to this guy for the answers to all of life's little questions? Lets's get real here. The man used to work at a fuckin' convenience store and collect comics, play Dungeons and Dragons and watch Star Wars. Take Chasing Amy for example, how am I suppose to take seriously the relationship advice of someone who couldn't get laid in a morgue if he didn't have money? You're telling me that he had all this relationship experience with women in high school? How is that possible? Did he give them coupons for a free Big Gulp?
: And another thing. Everybody gets so awed by his dialogue in his movies and how its so professional sounding and proper. Hey, way to go Kevin, you know how to use a thesaurus. Nice.
What the fuck does that mean? Doesn't "couldn't get laid in a morgue" make the point? Maybe that's some non-d&d, non-comic book term I just don't understand. Hey, I'd love to take you seriously, but I haven't seen one of your movies yet. Fucko. Beat it.
