The larynx of my generation
I've long felt like an outsider among thinking twentysomethings because I didn't care for Garden State. I'd assumed I would love the movie, and I seemed to have all the characteristics of someone who would--so what was wrong with me? But hadn't I seen that ending about a dozen times before--anyone remember Friends? Now, dependably contrarian Slate has come through for me with some unapologetic Garden State bashing.

Just now I saw on my People RSS feed the headline "Scrubs Star Hospitalized." And I was like, oh my god, I'm going to feel so guilty if Zach Braff has had his larynx crushed by an irate ex-fan. But no, Carla fractured her pelvis. Phew.
I saw the show Friends for the first time in Vang Vieng. They were playing it 24-7 in several tourist bars/ restaurants. Its such a thang there that one bar responded by advertising that "No Friends Shown Here."
