| | I had never, in my life, really been a fan of the word jackass, until two things happened in my life.
First, a woman and I were discussing a younger fellow who I said that I liked, and I was making a committment to find him a woman. Her response (tongue in cheek, or at least I think so...) was "No! He's no nice! Don't turn him into a jackass like you!" She and I ended up making out in a cab that evening, but that's a story for a different day.
Second, the character "Steve" in the remake of Dawn of the Dead, at some point exhorts his co-mall-inhabitees from going outside wherer the zombies are, and puncutates it with "...you jackasses." I would have strangled the guy in real life, but he was a perfect fop for the movie. You have to say "...you jackasses" in a sort of semi-sober swagger ala Dean Martin, tho...
So, like all problems in life, I blame my rude use of "jackass" on the movies, and women...
