No me gusta trabajar
¿Donde esta la chica nueva?
Cyber Agatha and I watched the slapstick farce "Enough" last night over a tray of freshly prepared Pillsbury Grands biscuits and some undercooked bacon. We helpfully translated each scene into eighth-grade Spanish:
Jennifer Lopez is punched in the face by her husband. Heneefer Lopez no es muy suerte.
Jennifer Lopez waits tables. Heneefer Lopez tiene la hamburguesa grande.
Jennifer Lopez answers the phone. "¡Hola!"
We only watched half of it, so maybe tonight we'll practice conjugating verbs. Abuso. Abusas. Abusa. Abusamos. Abusan.

Isn't this the movie where J.Lo's character is a bastard fathered by a pimp named Jupiter?
(And thanks for the link, where I learned that the German title for this movie was "Everyone has a limit".)

"slapstick farce..."
Very accurate. Why didn't she just shoot him?

I *love* Pillsbury Grands.
They're like crack, represented in delicious bread.
But I prefer my bacon crispy.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't the verb 'to abuse' be reflexive? Abusarse?

Hey Toby just thought I'd let you know someone over on my blog said something nasty about you and used your link.

i love when Billy Campbell slaps her face, she gets quiet and intense and says 'i will NOT get hit by my husband' and then he punches her in the face and she hits the floor. that movie is classic.
