I will watch any kind of feature film.I usually find something salvageable about even the most critically savaged film . I will watch anything . I draw the line however when it comes to any film with Hugh Grant. Everything within me recoils at the sight of the man.

The burden of belonging , in large part,  has

as its prerequisite , that one is generally agreeable.

If one tends to be disagreeable , one will very quickly

discover one  has been liberated from  the burden of belonging.

Consequently, it is felt, that having a base line of

general curmudgeonliness, as lets say, a starting point

in all matters, one is very likely to feel the true lightness

of being in ones life, and the spreading of ones wings in flight,

as they readily unburden you and abandon you to your

unassailable and irascible nature.

Imperfection is a birthright not to be squandered

amongst  the dull headed  merchants of

precision and exactitude
