Movies your BF/GF made you watch ...

jackryan @jackryan (40) • Philippines 2 Jun 10

I think everybody who has been in a relationship that's just starting out is bound to have encountered this. The girl I was going out with a few years ago wanted to watch "Maid in Manhattan", so I *had* to watch it too. Nevermind...

jackryan That's great! It's nice that your GF is "expanding your horizons" when it comes to movies. Sometimes it takes another person's persuasion powers to make us see the movie we never thought of seeing, and in the end we enjoy it -- to both us and our partner's joy...

jackryan Oh that's sad to hear. At best you could only be mildly annoyed at what you're watching, not liking the topic at all. But since you're with someone you love, then you can sit through it. That's terrible that you had to walk out. And about Planet of the apes,...

jackryan this is actually what I was talking about -- being "forced" to do something, but not really in an extremely bad way. Yes, it is also because of love I guess, and the want/need to please your partner or children. You just want to be around them and enjoy their...

jackryan yeah, this is one of those rare days when I'm actually thankful I'm at the office and not at home. Even though our home is all the way up on the 11th floor, it's still mind-numbingly hot. Even the air blowing in was hot, terrible!

LOST finale - opinions?

jackryan @jackryan (40) • Philippines 25 May 10

(SPOILERS AHEAD!) Personally, I loved it. It brought resolution to a lot of questions (but not all). The thing is, I went into the last show with an open mind. I did not set my expectations too high, and neither did I dread...

jackryan I hear you. I've been looking around and most of the flak the finale is receiving is from the confusing presence of the flash-sideways. If you think about it really, you could take out that entire plot line and put it into half a season. but as I've...

jackryan I agree, it would have been a happier ending had they all returned from the island, but personally, I prefer the way it ended. Jack sacrificing himself, people dying, etc. It reflects real-life, not everybody gets a happy ending (plus everybody dies anyway)....

jackryan same here! I had to "reboot" around season 4, because I kinda stopped watching the show for a while. But when I restarted, oh man was it worth it. let me know what you think when you reach the end! (methinks it will be a while, but still :) )

It's finale time

olisaur @olisaur (1922) • United States 24 May 10

Which TV shows are you anxious (or were anxious) to see? 24 and Lost are ending for ever and Simon's last nights on Idol are this week. I never became a Lost fan, so I watched the Celebrity Apprentice finale instead last night....

Have U met anyone with the same birthdate as yours? Similarities? Differences?

tomitomi @tomitomi (5429) • Singapore 26 Apr 10

I recently got to know a female colleague who share the same birthday as I am. To me that's pretty amazing as I've had dozens perhaps hundreds of colleagues ever since I started working. The last time I knew one was a year or two...

Philippine Islands

kyleuy @kyleuy (270) 25 Apr 10

The Philippines is composed of islands that is why it has a lot of beautiful beaches where people go to during the summer to relax, unwind and bond with their family and friends. Last week, April 17, 2010. I went to White Beach...

jackryan Puerto Galera is not the same as it once was. It's quite dirty now (like a lot of other beaches). The only thing it has going for it is it is quite accessible if you are coming from Manila. Other than that, it has nothing new to offer. You're better off at...
