'kat-h-'leen: yeah well. you're insane

re: Black Narcissus

'kat-h-'leen: 
 it's a bunch of Anglican nuns who travel to the Himalayas
 whatever la, I didn't watch it. Creepy.
Vincent Koh: 
 All nuns are creepy, whether in the Himalayas or elsewhere.
'kat-h-'leen: 
 AHAHAHA
Vincent Koh: 
 Except Julie Andrews.
 But she didn't really make it as a nun.
 Which is probably why she isn't creepy.

Apathy: My Greatest Enemy

curtismega: Many people ask what my greatest fear is and I always say becoming apathetic. Some may say this is a cop out…but I see it as the worst of all things.

I...
