O Brother Where Art Thou is a good film, but it is nowhere near their best.

Well...in my opinion
What? What are you talking about? It's girls and spaghetti. We love girls and spaghetti.

I don't know why I'm still thinking about this, but for whatever reason I really enjoyed Matty's invoking Advance Placement tests to describe Adam's approach to Top 5 lists.  I suppose it hit close to home.

Matty, prefacing his top five list:

     Matty:  "You always give yourself like an Advanced Placement list challenge--"

     Adam:  "Yes."

     Matty:  "You always seem to take it to the nth degree."

     Adam:  "Uh huh."

     Matty:  "So I — just humor me here for a second — I came up with my own Top Five Big Lebowski moments..."

That's actually not an opinion. It's quantifiable fact.
