Fabric stores and Hot Topics throughout the land closed their doors, and the Lifetime Network went off the air, as all of womankind gathered to see the further adventures of their sullen heroine, Bella Swan, and her various supernatural boyfriends. The film made an astonishing amount of money, which makes me all the more bitter that my screenplay adaptation of the book was rejected. Here it is, so you can compare it with what they used instead.]]> Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:00:00 MST http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/the-great-depression/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/the-great-depression/ Mon, 16 Nov 2009 12:00:00 MST http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/how-sweat-it-is/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/how-sweat-it-is/ Mon, 03 Aug 2009 12:00:00 MDT http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/strange-encounters-with-the-neighbors/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/strange-encounters-with-the-neighbors/ Mon, 13 Jul 2009 12:00:00 MDT http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/ribald-for-your-pleasure/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/ribald-for-your-pleasure/ Mon, 22 Jun 2009 12:00:00 MDT http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/in-which-it-is-hard-to-throw-away-a-desk/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/in-which-it-is-hard-to-throw-away-a-desk/ I bought a new desk at Ikea to replace the wobbly old one I'd been using, then realized I'd Ikea'd myself into a pickle: I now had two desks, with no easy way of getting rid of the old one. Giving it to Goodwill was impossible because I had neither the pickup truck nor the motivation required for such a task. And the desk wasn't in good enough condition to be worth Craigslisting -- besides, I wanted it gone NOW. So I decided to destroy the desk and just throw its pieces in the garbage. ]]> Mon, 01 Jun 2009 12:00:00 MDT http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/leaving-the-house-and-why-i-dont-want-to/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/leaving-the-house-and-why-i-dont-want-to/ Mon, 18 May 2009 12:00:00 MDT http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/receding-airlines/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/receding-airlines/ Mon, 06 Apr 2009 12:00:00 MDT http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/the-10-types-of-internet-comments/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/the-10-types-of-internet-comments/ Mon, 23 Feb 2009 12:00:00 MST http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/peta-peta-kitten-eater/ http://www.ericdsnider.com/snide/peta-peta-kitten-eater/ Mon, 16 Feb 2009 12:00:00 MST
