But who knows? Maybe one person decided to write about it and everyone tagged along. I have a serious soft spot for it, I admit.Nick Priggehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17895803287589438170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17951989.post-8106413665563385172013-12-15T20:25:55.138-06:002013-12-15T20:25:55.138-06:00I've been seeing a lot of crazy hatred for thi...I've been seeing a lot of crazy hatred for this film recently as well. Why is that? Did something happen that made people think about this film all the sudden? Maybe it's just the impending holiday... who knows. I've always thought it was a decent enough romcom. Nothing spectacular or anything. Except Keira, of course. That lady is special.Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17951989.post-29712908780846093582013-12-15T19:13:41.676-06:002013-12-15T19:13:41.676-06:00It does relate to "Love Actually."

I remember dating a girl once and I'd always go to movies without her because I like going to movies by myself and, yeah, she was never keen on it. So it is.<br /><br />Also, meatloaf rocks. Enjoy.Nick Priggehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17895803287589438170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17951989.post-53101606055021811942013-12-15T16:28:50.999-06:002013-12-15T16:28:50.999-06:00Okay, the hat thing has swayed me.

I'm on board now.<br /><br />All these discussions of Love Actually have reminded me that it's the ten-year anniversary of my breaking up with the girl I once thought I was going to marry. Two different Christmas movies from 2003 factored in to our breakup. Love Actually was the last movie I saw with her, and me going to see Elf with my friends instead of spending the day with her led to what ended up being the final argument. Ten years has apparently been enough time to heal the wounds, however, as we are finally now Facebook friends and she even sent me her killer recipe for meatloaf -- which my wife loves and which I'm making for dinner tonight. <br /><br />I know this doesn't relate very much to Love Actually, except it sort of perfectly does, doesn't it?<br /><br />I still don't like the movie that much, though.
