Observe, if you will, the following incident that took place between me and one of my friends at a wedding reception this weekend:
He shows me a text message he's sending,
Actually, I == teh drunk.
Wedding reception
Me: "I see you didn't forget the double equals"
Him: "Yeah, all my text messages compile properly"
Me: "Although, I guess in this case using a single equals would be a quick shortcut to getting drunk..."
Him: [rofl] "How are you not an alcoholic with a mind like that?"
"Does anyone have the phone number of the Internet so we can order a sendmail?"
Apparently air bags may be harmful to your thumbs. Oh noes.

Armageddon, the movie. This is exactly Independence Day, except instead of aliens in giant spaceships there are rocks, in... bigger rocks. Also, cross-bred with Lord of the Rings, because Arwen is in it. Not Liv Tyler — Arwen, because I can only hope Liv Tyler is capable of something more than standing stoically while everybody else panics about impending doom. I have never seen a more useless character.
