PPV nite, writing, Edgewood, Spanish, beer connoiseurship. (Okay, so two of them are phrases and not strictly words. Bite me.)
My point here is that guys are given certain impressions on what love and women are like and it isn't that way either. I'm seriously interested in what these are.
The thing about the Princess Bride to me was that it was as much about the tropes of romance stories and fairytales as it was a romance story or fairytale, which is why I love it. It essentially told a good story because it was so aware of all that storytelling baggage.
