    What if I told you that they have normal relationships, and you're the one with a strange relationship?

      I am also not a Reddit fan. As has been mentioned, I don't like the layout. Just can't follow what's going on. When I tell people I'm not a Reddit fan they always say "Well, you just haven't found the right sub-reddits" to which I always reply "Oh, are there sub-reddits that don't have ****ty 1990s style layouts?"

        I went on Rotten Tomatoes, and they listed Ethan Hawke's top ten highest rated films on the site (by the Tomatometer). The top three films were:

        Before Sunrise (1995) - 100%
        Before Sunset (2004) - 95%
        Before Midnight (2013) - 98%

        IMDb also rates them at 8.1, 8.0, and 8.1 respectively. Richard Linklater wrote an directed all three films, and I haven't heard of a single one of them before.

            I learned today that there are sock puppets on OS. I mean I knew sock puppets existed, but didn't know there were animated. Kinda cool really.

                I'm not the only one who thinks reddit is awful because of the layout. I knew I could count on you OS.

                    One of my buddies here flies to Tokyo at least twice a month to see his girlfriend of over one year. He's found a way to do it relatively cheap, though.

                    After seeing some pictures, I almost don't blame him.

                        I've seen the first one completely by accident. I was vacationing with a previous girlfriend and we were chilling playing pool and the TV had Before Sunrise playing. It seemed like a great rom-com/dramedy. Lots of great dialogue that ventured on several philosophically influenced themes. Its not a surprise they're all well received. Linklater is an underrated writer/director. His new film Boy looks amazing.

                        I can see why this site wouldn't be familiar with the films, though. Before Sunrise was essentially dialogue about relationships and love and all that jazz. I was at the end of a relationship and this movie made it clearer to me that I was.

                          Awesome, thanks for the heads up FT! I'm going to give these a viewing sometime, especially if they are on Netflix. I've really liked most of what Hawke signs onto.

                            All three films are dialog heavy. I prefer the 1st and 2nd to the 3rd. The again we watched Before Midnight late at night and I was half asleep before the opening scene started. Plenty there to analyze in all three films aka right up your ally, Blzer.

                            You could wrote us a dissertation on the trilogy.

                              Personally I love reddit. I always find a lot of really good information on there and it usually entertains me as well.

                              The layout isn't the greatest obviously but I'm used to it at this point.
