...confuse gothic and Romanesque architecture, my brother constantly accuses of me not only of being uncultured but also tasteless, I'm always behind a season when it comes to style, and last but not least, wine gives me a thunderous headache.

I'd venture a guess: When balding and/or graying politicians continually make what appears to be an active decision to cut young people out of the political process, the impetus to get involved is sharply diminished.

...immature as many of the films sound (the festival, not surprisingly, is vehemently endorsed by Korn), much of the humor can be rather clever. And Mike did manage to sneak in some sequences that could even be considered-gasp-tasteful. In "Rejected," you view animated commercials made for the Family Learning Channel that, for obvious reasons, were turned down: "The Ghost of Stephen Foster" displays crisp animation (with Squirrel Nut Zippers music) pleasantly reminiscent of the 1930s, and Pixar's "For the Birds" shows off computer animation at its best...
