My friend Almie made the BOLD statement that the “whole John Cusack thing” is getting old, and we proceeded to have a healthy discourse about this topic via Gchat. Then she wrote about it on her wonderful website Apocalypstick. I still think she’s wrong, but it makes for a fun read.
lloyd dobler had bigger balls than tom ever would
