Iron Man

All week I've been telling my co-worker how good Iron Man is and he's ignored me. He said he thought it was a kids' movie.

So today he's all interested in Speed Racer. SPEED FUCKING RACER. And he says Iron Man is a kids' movie. So I finally just stopped talking. He went to his highest authority on movies--MSN movies. After checking  a review on Speed Racer he decided maybe I was right. Then he looks at Iron Man...hmmm. Rave review of Iron Man, how can that be? Then as he's reading the review out loud, in a stunned tone of voice, he says "Robert Downey Jr. as the troubled lead character. Is that right?'  me: "What?"  him: "Is it Robert Downey Jr?" me: stunned silence.  finally, heavy sarcasm, 'I don't know, what does the review say?'

Cripes man. You gotta love it when someone just ignores everything you say and then all of a sudden they 'discover' the same thing you've been telling them all along. Fuck that, I hope he goes to Speed Racer.
