I swear to god, yesterday in my lit class after a debate over the Patriot Act this guy turns to me and says, "There's this movie you gotta see, called 1984."
Yeah.

Let me get this straight: this happened after your lit class, lit being short for litterature, a guy suggested you watch 1984 - the movie?! How did you refrain from saying, "Oh yeah, I read the book they wrote about that."
I wouldn't have been able to hold back, but then again, people in high school don't read real books today, do they? Then they go to college and their ignorance is overt...
(Sorry for the rant but you said "Patriot Act" which gets me worked up. I had to rant about something and you know with Big Brother watching...)
