This will be extremely short: the W. review.
I pressed play.
I gave it 20 minutes.
I stopped the movie.
That's it. Sorry.
This movie does not merit me writing more about it.

We'll miss you little Bug.
A couple of weeks ago I posted a video of a cute rat called Bug. She was the most precious little thing. I found it thru my Flickr account a while back, and when I had a really tough day at work I used to go to her gallery to see cute pictures of her and smile in an instant. Well, Bug recently passed away but her cuteness still lives on, and it may be a little rat but if you look at the pictures you'll see why some of us will miss her.
So, thank you dear Bug, you will always have a cute place in my heart. Click at the name of the post to smile and enjoy her...

Grafitti is the Bomb.
Since the day I started traveling, I always liked to "document" grafitti all around the globe. The few places I've been lucky to travel have given me awesome, and most important, free art. The streets are filled with such beauty, some people don't look enough to realize that they are surrounded by art.
Some cities have more urban artwork than others, but it's always like an adventure for me to keep an eye out on the most cool art there is: urban art.
The last time I traveled to Manhattan we were walking down at SoHo and kind of bumped on a great artist near Dean and Deluca. It was incredible and totally affordable. When my lovely TravisFkcr started seeing a skateboard deck painted by hand by this cool guy, I decided to give it to him as a gift. I've never felt better buying a piece of art, period. My sweetie has it hanging proudly on his office. Please, support your local street art vendors. They don't have the luxury of showing their pieces at a museum or gallery all the time, and by helping out you are making an artist not to give up. Besides, there are more talented people out in the street than in most museums right now, trust me.

He's not that into you - I am a Traitor.
This is the most disturbing thing ever. You see, in all my life, the best friends that I've ever had were men. I've always been just one of the guys, and I've had the pleasure of listening to them and also, trying to comfort them when they needed it the most. That has given me an unprecedented access to the way men think.
The thing is, in my own past relationships, I never could get it. The "He's not that into you" debacle was not clear to me for quite a while, until once I started thinking... women tend to over complicate everything. I started accepting that only we, women across the world see things where there isn't a thing. I was the first idiot who had a bad relationship with someone and thought... hey maybe he's confused. Nope. That person specifically was not that into me. It took me years, but I finally saw the light: if I just were clear and listened a bit more, things were going to be fine.
I found that by being logical and reasonable I could have a better relationship the next time, and trust me, it has payed of. Not that I think like a man, I just undertand men a whole lot better.
Cut to tonight. One of my best friends when I was little reappeared. I was so happy. He and I have been brother and sister for years, and getting back in touch with him was very easy.
So he calls me up today. Last Saturday, he went out with some chick. Um, let me backtrack a bit. He just got divorced and he's feeling lonely and miserable. He's truly confused and sad. So he did what the rest of us at some point have done: got a little bit wild on alcohol and slept with an innocent bystander. It happens.
So after leaving her at her mother's - long story of her car being there instead of her own house - she calls him back, this one person who gave him her nookie hours before, and tells him "mother wants to meet you". Yeah. Fatal Attraction Bunny Cooker moment. He gets so freaked out, he leaves and tells her... Um, maybe later. Click.
He calls me up. This woman is calling me everyday and I am not that into her. Besides, he tells me, the meet the mother thing just hours after she slept with me gave me the creeps. I am so sorry that I slept with her because I didn't mean to, but hey, I was lonely. What can I say, he asked.
This is where I turn on my own sex and truly become a traitor. I listened to him talk about how difficult this moment in his life was, and that she just pushed his vulnerable button. For the first time in all my life, here I was listening to the complete other side of the coin, the male point of view... and he actually had a point. He didn't mean to have sex with her and now he felt that she wanted something that he could not offer. She has called him nonstop for every single day that has passed. Again, a woman that just slept with him on a whim, now wants a relationship and date? What the honest fuck is going on with single woman in this age?
I asked... Did you try to tell her that this would not go any further? Yes. Did you tell her that you were not looking for a relationship with anybody? Yes. Is her a clinger, in your eyes? Yes! Well dude, if you tell her the truth, if you tell her that it was just a weak moment from your part, you will be the asshole. So... I did the unthinkable. I told him to utter the ugliest line that I could ever listen myself: tell her "It's not you, it's me."
Um... Do you think it will work? Yup. Trust me, been there got a tshirt, I replied. It's better for you to let her think you're damaged than to break her self esteem because you just made a mistake. If you tell her that it was just sex, it will ruin her. Just be gentle... and say a white lie.
I was astonished. Here I was telling my best friend to be the usual asshole that all women meet, just because he truly was totally right. For as long as I've hated men doing this to women, I've never fully understood why this practice still goes on. I thought that all men said it because they didn't have any other interesting excuse out there. I was wrong. They sometimes have an excuse, but it's too painful for the women to hear. WHOA.
This woman expected way too much from someone she just met a couple of hours ago. Clinger women are the worst and he doesn't deserve a stalker just because he boinged her silly. He needed a get free from jail card and quick... and I was the one that gave it to him. A woman. Lord kill me.
The thing is, while having listened to a couple of guys tell it to me at one point of my past, I finally got it. Men usually lie to make you feel better because the truth for some women is just too harsh.
I've known women who insist on dating someone just because they are so lonely they think that they won't find a better man. Or saw women imagining love where there clearly wasn't nothing beyond caring. Those men see that and opt for a nicer goodbye, see you later, we'll always be friends. The "It's not you, it's me" is a nice, civil way to end something and salvage whatever is left. Amazing shit.
It's not having my friend's back completely. I scolded him for not thinking things through and not thinking that this might hurt this poor woman down the road. But he also had a point. He didn't offer promises, he didn't talk beyond his boundaries and the woman just took one little thing and blew it out of proportion.
But tonight, by helping out my sweet friend to become the asshole he doesn't truly want to be but has no other option but break her heart... I was happy. Not because I turned on my own sex. It's simple. It means that at some point of my past, the men that uttered that same phrase... well, they were not into me-into me, but at least, they cared enough not to break my heart.
That's nice to know. Hundred of years later.
UPDATED: He called the chick and used the get free out of jail card. It worked. Some things never change...

An Ode to the most Evil Art Director, ever.
I've never hated anyone in all my life. Even my dead beat father, which proudly carries the "asshole" title in my book. Hate is an ugly word and most of all, an ugly feeling that, in at least my opinion, makes people sometimes lesser human beings. I prefer to pity someone bad than anything else.
But this person could have made me change my mind. I was just lucky.
Restrictions reminded me of a turd of a person that we had the "displeasure" (if it's even a word) to work with. He was, without a doubt, a rotten art director. In all my years doing this I have never met another person who could come close to him, period. I write about him because every one of us at some point will have a close encounter with one of these types and since we learned our lesson, hey, let's share this in hopes that some of you out there avoid what could end up in massacre.
How ugly a human being was he? Let me give you the award winners:
1) He once put on a sign on the creative's wall that read "Nothing tastes as good as being skinny", not caring for one moment if someone would be offended by this statement. Funny thing is? He ended up fat the last time someone saw him. Can you say "foot in your mouth?"
2) He once made an Account Executive cry for screaming at her so loudly. He insulted her intelligence, her values... and all the excuse he had was that she was just an AE and she could handle it. Yeah, forget about respecting people for just their position. Asshole. Oh, I forgot to mention, this particular AE had emotional problems and everybody knew that we had all to be extra gentle with her? Yeah... Moron.
3) He used to smoke so much weed, it made him a complete moron. There was no way you could work with him, even worse if you had a deadline. And he always had this attitude when he was caked out of his mind, like... what is your problem? Dickwad.
4) The agency I worked for was a true Team Effort. If you had a deadline and I finished my work early, a non spoken rule was in effect: we all stayed and helped you out. I cannot count the times this buttmuncher actually left us and didn't even offer to help. Small dicked man.
5) He thought less of other people's design abilities. Granted, he was very good designing, but still, he wasn't a Picasso. I hated when he saw other people's work and went... Meh. Idiot!
Why is this post important? Well, I'm not saying that we should all love each other at work, but people like this sometimes crap all over what could be a nice work environment. There will always be bad apples around, but this apple, covered with slime and fungi isn't nice to have around. The thing that bugged the shit out of me was that my late boss didn't see this obnoxious person for who he was and he had to make huge mistakes just so that he could get fired.
What can you do if you encounter this piece of shit? Nothing much you can do. Ignore him or her. Time, my friends, is the best medicine. In a blink of an eye you will have the pleasure of doing what the rest of us that have lived through it do: Laugh and remember.

My friend the asshole
I’m not an advocate of gossip, but it sure is entertaining. So I was curious to hear news about a friend who had gone over to the Dark Side: he was an Art Director and was now a Brand Manager, client side. Yep, a goofy art dude was now a serious client. The switch had occurred over four years ago, and I was ready for my briefing from a mutual friend.
Turns out the dude has turned into a total asshole since becoming a client, and not just on a professional level, which is natural, what with all the new responsibilities, but also on a personal level. As an art director he was laid back, fun, easy going, a vocal liberal, understanding, open to ideas and constructive criticism. Now, as a client, he’s always uptight, easily angered, harshly critical, condescending, and unfair in his judgments.
This got me to wondering, Is being an asshole just the nature of being a client? Is this unavoidable? When I think back on the hundreds of clients I’ve had to deal with, I can only single out maybe FOUR who do not fit this bill, which is a pretty good indicator. Is it possible that our rants here at WAS are nothing more than preaching to the choir?

Juan Manuel Marquez Vs Juan Díaz
You know a fight is damn good if I'm screaming at the top of my lungs, past midnight. That out of the way, what a fight. What a sensational fight. What an incredible fight...
Round 1: Juan Manuel Marquez starts off pretty good, pretty solid, and after about fifteen seconds or so, Juan Díaz does what he does best, throw punches. Few people can put more pressure on an opponent than Juan Díaz when he is focused. Think Paul Williams, think Antonio Margarito, but put quicker combinations to that equation.
The first three rounds were close the very definition of close. But you had to give them to Juan Díaz. Maybe the third round escaped from his grasp, but for the most part, Díaz was getting the best of the best fighter in the world. Commentators said ooohs and aaaahhhs about Díaz's combination punches, especially a left hook that for some reason was catching Marquez flush two out of five times.
More praise for The Baby Bull's combination punching from the commentators but something else was mentioned. The fact that Juan Manuel Marquez is one of the smartest boxers ever to lace up a pair of gloves. The thing is that though he has great defense, he's never in it to win a decision. When that happens, it's because the other guy could take his punches. What this means is that he wants to hit his opponent, hard, and because of this is susceptible to get hit. Everyone predicted Juan Manuel Marquez was going to change strategy and adjust, but everyone seemed to think this just meant that he'd find the way to make Juan Díaz slow down just enough so that the 35 year old boxer wouldn't fade away and that his counter punching skills would come to fruition. No one would have thought that Juan Manuel Marquez would keep pace, especially since the natural light weight is Juan Díaz and because by the end of less than 8 rounds, Juan Manuel Marquez had been forced to throw, land, and receive more punches than in any other fight in his career.
By round 5 Juan Díaz was doing the unthinkable, he was pushing Juan Manuel Marquez back, forcing him to fight his game and showcasing his wonderful abilities. In the early rounds Díaz was throwing straight, quick, and accurate shots, and in combination no less. He was throwing, and throwing, and throwing. Juan Manuel Marquez was backing up, countering and fighting way faster than I've ever seen him fight... ever.
Round 6. Juan Manuel Marquez lands a couple of shots that slightly rattle Juan Díaz and for his part, Díaz obliges and throws back to fight the way he loves to fight, usinig fire against fire.
Round 7. Ronny Shields tells Juan Díaz to not back off or give Juan Manuel Marquez a chance to rest. Díaz did just that. But for every crack heard from Díaz shots, you heard a boom from every left hook to the body and every right cross Juan Manuel connected oh and did I mention the uppercuts? Yeah, he threw some of those too while showcasing a variety of punches in close quarters and at a distance.
Round 8. Juan Manuel Marquez lands 30 shots to Diaz's 8.
Round 9. Is Juan Díaz going to think of clinching or backing off? no. That would not be good enough for a fighter as good and as proud as Díaz. But Juan Manuel Marquez showed that he's not only one of the smartest boxers in the history of the sport. He also showed that he could give better than he took from a hungry young warrior in his prime. Right cross, left hook, left uppercut, right hook, right cross, left jab right hook = knockdown #1. A brilliant right uppercut gave Díaz his second knockdown of the fight and a TKO victory to Marquez.
Age 35. 50 victories. 37 KO's. Juan Manuel Marquez is simply the best boxer in the world.
"But Manny Pacquiao beat him twice..."
First off, the first fight was a draw and it was a bullshit draw. Check the tape, be honest and accept the facts. Juan Manuel Marquez won the first fight. As for the second fight, it was a hell of a lot closer than the first one if you ask me, but this time there was a victor.... Manny Pacquiao via split decision. I watched the fight three times.... I know I'm a Marquez Mark (Marq?) but I was objective, and I still saw JMM win by one round.
"But Manny beat Oscar De La Hoya..."
Great... When was the last time you saw Oscar be supremely competitive in a fight and win? you'd have to think a bit, but being honest, I do think Oscar beat Floyd Mayweather so credit to Oscar for that fight. The thing is that with De la Hoya's last fight, I truly think going down to 147 cost him everything for the fight. His body couldn't take it and Manny did what no one had been able to do with Oscar, pretty much ever... neutralize his left hand, completely. So props to Freddy Roach and Manny for getting the strategy that won him the fight... but that still doesn't mean Manny has ever beat Marquez. Sure, he's knocked him down four times when all is told, but if anything should be clear by now, it should be that Juan Manuel Marquez can be hit, he can be cut, he can be countered, and he can even be knocked down... but outwilling him? Well rather than answer lets see Pacquiao VS Marquez III and leave speculation to a side.
Cheers
