boy's name.

i asked you, "does it bother you that you have a boy's name?"

i thought i pissed you off. most of the time, i come off like a jaded asshole.

i forgot about that.
i don't mind that question as much as "so wait, did your parents think you were a boy when they had you!?"
or "is it just 'kyle' or is it 'kylie?"

it takes much more than a witty remark to upset me, you'll find.
most of the time i appreciate people who can fight back.

i agree with and have seen most of this, however...
how the hell are you not going to include wild at heart in a lynch list, but somehow include mullholland drive and even worse that that lost highway. also a gilliam list without the adventures of baron munchausen, tsk.
but other than that, awesomely comprehensive!

i consider lost highway to one of lynch's best works.

mulholland drive to be a lesser work, and wild at heart to be somewhere int he middle.
