For New Year’s Day, a couple of friends and I went to catch a flick called “The Spirit”, and if you ask me, the movie stinks. I LOVED the visual techniques in “Sin City”, but when it was used for “The Spirit”, it didn’t get the same effect. Because for one, “Sin City” already did it, and second, the visualization in “The Spirit” was messy and half-assed. The entire characters were one-dimensional and spoke in such a completely stylized and slick dialog that you couldn’t buy into it.
Speaking of slick, do you know who’s not slick?
Me.
After the film, we hung out at Pris’s yard, chit chattin’ and what not, and part of the discussion concerned epic karate moves. I was demonstrating to them the art of an authentic roundhouse kick, and my foot landed on doggy doo right after doing it. I was wearing my favorite shoes too.
Instead of getting praises for my roundhouse kick, I only heard laughter for stepping on doggy doo.
Yeah, good one Tiff. No one’s ever going to take your roundhouse kicks seriously anymore!
Stepping on dog shit, or any kind of shit, sucks, but when something like that happens, I usually try to find the bright side of things. In this case, I stepped on a firm, dried up ol’ piece of turd, which is, hands down, way better than stepping on a soaked and freshly shitted mountain mush with steam coming off of it.
Tomorrow will be a better day.
hey they say having a bird poop on you is good luck. maybe stepping in dog poo is like the ultimate luckiness. haha~
don’t worry my friend was playing bball in the dark and he saw something on the ground and he thought it was some dirt or something. so as you do when you’re curious, he touched it. =__=;;
after screaming and running around for 5 minutes then cleaning his hand. he stepped in the poo with his bare foot while playing bball. -__-;;

That’s disappointing about The Spirit, I was really looking forward to it because I LOVED Sin City. I’ll probably check it out anyways though.

Ah, my friend asked me to go watch Spirit but it looked so gay I didn’t think I would be able to sit through it so I passed on it.
Thanks for informing about the movie, I’m going to avoid it altogether. I didn’t really like sincity either.
Speaking of which, I rented a whole load of movies two weeks ago and still barely watched one… I should finish it before they make me buy it. Lol
Cheers!! Happy belated new years!

Oh yeah, the shit was all up in the creases and grooves of my boot. I had to hose my boots down for two days!

I didn’t think that movie would be good because it looks SO MUCH LIKE Sin City. Who wants to see another movie made that way, haha~
Gross about the dog poop.. kinda funny though! ^^

i enjoy reading your blogs, you’re so witty. as for the poo, that’s a GREAT way to begin the new year…it’s supposed to be good luck stepping in that. I just hope for your sake you had shoes on…
…but if not hey, maybe it’s even more lucky.

oops sorry…you did have shoes….but still, its ok, its lucky.

Nawww… too bad about your shoe!
Next time, do it again without stepping on the shit. Maybe step on a balloon that’ll explode and scare everyone. HA!
I haven’t seen The Spirit yet, though Muffin who’s a complete comic geek is excited about it. I couldn’t follow Sin City let alone this one. I think I need to read it first or something? Because otherwise I really like comic movies, especially if they have out of the ordinary speech and special effects.

Ooh, thanks for letting me know that “The Spirit” isn’t that wonderful…my hubby and I had thought of watching it.

Hahah, I agree with you. I would MUCH rather step on dried up dog shit than the fresh, wet stuff. There’s really nothing worse than trying to scrape fresh dog shit off your shoes, much less your favorite shoes, with a sidewalk, stick, or some other dog shit removing utensil. Blech.

At least you didn’t SIT in dog shit with a pair of designer jeans right before you’re about to go out!! =(

LOL.
I have no sympathy, it just makes me laugh.

I hate it when you try to do something fun, or silly and it results in… that. Dog poop. It’s like, you know, you’re like “Look at me. I’m the life of the party,” and your pants split.
At least it was dry. That’s true. My neighbors’ dog took a dump in my lawn and I stepped on it while barefoot. So gross. I was furious. Stepping in your dog’s crap is one thing, but stepping in a redneck dog’s Stanley Steamer? Unforgivable.
I put the shit in a bag and dumped it out on their lawn.

I think owning a dog makes one indifferent to poop… but yes, i agree the dry one is better than the wet ones. perhaps you should film your kick? i’m sure the internets will appreciate it more than your friends.
