really, if any one didn't get those references, just, wow. though, i have to remind myself, i am a 22 year old man, and those two movies are more or less my bread and butter. through in some Shaun of the Dead, and you've got the Holy Trinity. toss in some Motorhead, you've got the Holy Quad.
but, really, that argument, wow. that was extremely well written. nicely done. respect.
Author's Response: Yeah, the argument was tricky to write. I didn't want either one of them to come off as terrible, just incompatible with each other. I too love Shaun of the Dead. I would throw the Batman soundtrack at a zombie if it came at me any day of the week. Thanks for the review.

Very well done as usual. Although Jim's thoughts seem a bit to feeble. It seems like he's given up entirely to the idea of Pam and REALLY wanted it to work with Karen. Maybe that's just my interpretation but even so good job.
Author's Response: Yeah I see what you mean. My reasoning is that Jim knows he has a lack of deep feelings for Karen and is consequently over-compensating by trying to hold on too hard to the relationship. He knows that if it doesn't work with Karen, if he can't move on from Pam, a woman who rejected him twice already, then he is completely screwed. The Jim in this story doesn't realize how Pam feels about him. Thanks for the review, I appreciate the kind words!
