<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Because the stereotype of a movie critic is of a fat white guy who sits on the couch all day, because ebonics doesn't translate well into text, and because watches tell time. Any more stupid questions?</div>
Ebonics not translating well into text is not really the answer I was looking for, because they don't speak ebonics, they just think they are. Also, about the watch, all wise one, why do people not do the same thing when asking about a good place to eat,

People don't point to their watches when they want to eat or take a leak because you don't do either of those on a watch... I mean, duh! :)

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>As for the Chronicles of Riddick, I was pretty entertained. But then again, I'm a sucker for Sci-Fi flicks with a bad-ass anti-hero, so there may be a significant amount of bias represented here.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt "Fine Hand"; text-align: left; '>I knew what he meant. I was just messin' with him. =8^) Yeah, people use gestures to communicate. Like...if I need scissors, I actually start "scissoring" my fingers. Or if I need to pee, nevermind. =8^D</div>
