a collection of reflections by people i have known

by tripp

a few weeks ago, i came across ‘the big lebowski: the fucking short version.’ someone went through and cut everything out of of the movie but the ‘fucks’.

this afternoon, nick sends me a link to the ‘pulp fiction: the fucking short version’

so then i do what any good nerd does — i go to youtube and search for ‘fucking short version’. it is official — it’s an internet meme.

what follows is:

lock, stock and two smoking barrels

the boondock saints

the commitments (??)

the blair witch project

scarface

and casino

and you dont really need me to tell you that this ties in nicely with my post from tuesday about movies with the most utterances of the word fuck in them, do you?

i made a juice futon* this morning.

* juice bed comes from my time dating petunia. she (regularly) spills** (-ed?) food items in the bed, esp juice. this morning, i knocked over an oj onto the futon. since i make fun of her spills to this day, i wanted to fess up to my own messmaking.

** i have a text on my phone, saved, from april 4, 2006. it is from petunia and reads: ‘i accidentally made a juicepillow.’*** so maybe she has cut back, but juice-age could still strike at any time.

*** i love that the word ‘accidentally’ has to be used here. i don’t recall anyone spilling juice on a bed (or pillow or futon) on purpose. i believe the term ‘juicebed’ implies an accident. which is why i am amused for the word accidentally to be used.

List of films that most frequently use the word fuck – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

thanks kurt. this list inspired a guessing game in the office for no less than 15 minutes. 1 and 2 are not well known, but i was surprised at how long it took people to guess number 3.

and the obvious movies turn out to not be obvious afterall.

(grain of salt) i am a big nerd. but this is the coolest thing i have read in a long time.
