Buffalo Wing Media Bias: Adam Carolla: 'On Hypocrites From The Hollywood Left'

"Comedian Adam Carolla exposes Hollywood's hypocrisy, mainly in the area of taxes and money. When it comes to paying your "fair" share, apparently we should do as they say, not as they do.

Here are a few links to articles referenced in the video:"

From Buffalo Wings Media Bias

Source:POLITICO- "The new Hollywood left"
Adam Carolla who is a libertarian comedian, laid out perfectly what the so-called Hollywood-Left in America really is and what they're really about, which is just a bunch of disingenuous Hollywood hypocrites. If they were a softball team, they would be called the Hollywood Hypocrites with a picture of Che Guevara on their t-shirts, arriving to their ballgames in their limos, Rolls Royces, private jets, smoking their Cuban cigars, drinking Champagne instead of Gatorade at their games. Claiming to be down for the cause and against the man. ( Even though a lot of them are the man  or woman )

It's one thing for Joe and Sally Jones or someone else in Smithville, Ohio ( or some place ) who only has a high school diploma, but who is an excellent construction or factory worker who was making before they were laid off or saw their job go to Mexico or some other low-wage country, 50-60 thousand-dollars a year with benefits, to now be talking about the flaws of American capitalism, because they were screwed out of their job and perhaps are now working two part-time jobs or one full-time and a part-time job, or perhaps three part-time jobs just to make a living. That guy or woman has a real case to make, because they just lost their good job in an economic system that does so well for so many people.

But if you're a multi-millionaire by the time you were in your late 20s, mid 20s, hell, you had your own damn corporation by the time you finished high school or were a child actor and now you have the balls to be talking about how much American capitalism sucks and the rich get away with everything, while the little man, woman, and minorities are getting screwed by the system. Well, aren't you part of the so-called problem that you say you want to correct?

These full-time entertainers and at best part-time activists and to be more accurate they're more like actors who play political activists, talk about how much they think American capitalism sucks, while they enjoy every benefit that comes from never having to worry about money ( just as long as they or their accountant doesn't piss their money away )  and enjoy the life ( as they would call it ) in Manhattan or Los Angeles, while talk about the horrors of homelessness, while they own multiple apartments and houses in multiple cities, in places where you have to be rich just to be able to afford the parking there.

If these Hollywood entertainers really care about the social problems of the country, why don't they donate a lot of their money to charities to other groups ( not politicians and candidates ) to fix those problems. Set up foundations to deal with poverty, instead of just looking good on TV in some TV spot talking about them. If they think the rich are really getting away with financial murder in America, then maybe they should release their own taxes and we can see how much they pay in taxes each year, how much they deduct from their taxes, what percentage of their multi-million-dollar annual incomes that they donate to charity. Don't just put your money with your big, fat, mouth is, but put a lot of your money and actually back up what you say. Instead of letting your mouth write checks that your ass can't or won't cash.

New York and Hollywood get stereotyped as left-wing ( if not Far-Left towns ) but they're not. If you had to find the two most pro-capitalist, pro-liberal democracy, pro-American towns and states in America it would probably be New York City and Los Angeles, and New York State and California. Which might sound like someone saying that Seattle, Washington is the capital of sunburns in America. Or no other city gets more blizzards and snow than Miami, Florida.

But think about it: New York City is the capital of Corporate America and therefor American capitalism. Washington, another supposed left-wing or Far-Left city, is the capital of the free world and liberal democracy. Los Angeles, is not just the movie and TV capital of America ( if not the world ) but the entertainment capital of America. ( If not the world ) If these three big American cities are so Far-Left, pro-socialist, and anti-capitalist, then why the hell are they so damn rich and own so many big companies? Why would someone want to do business in a city that hates capitalism and wealth? Of course they wouldn't, because they would either get taxed or regulated out-of-business, or both.

So, can we stop taking the average run of the mill actor or so-called celebrity seriously, or any actor or entertainer at least when they're talking about American capitalism and how unfair they claim that it is and that the rich get all the breaks, while the little man and woman continually get screwed by the system.

Actors and entertainers are just that and I'm not trying to be insulting here, but their profession is a convenient tool to use against them when they claim that the rich has too much. If they really think they're overpaid, then they're more than welcome to donate a lot of their money to their favorite ( if they have one or do any business at all with any charity ) charity and give up all of their extra homes, fly first class instead of having their own plane, eat their meals at delis and dinners, instead of their favorite posh restaurant in Washington, New York, or Los Angeles.

But until then ( and it finally stops raining in Seattle and they run out of coffee on the same day ) we should take these actors and entertainers only as seriously as they deserve to be taken: which is as actors and entertainers who play a part, because they want to be seen as cool with young people who probably do like socialism and perhaps identify as Socialists. And perhaps because their favorite celebrities claim to hate capitalism and the rich as well.

Charisma on Command: 'How To Have Fun Without Drinking'

Source:Charisma on Command- It's easy: just be yourself. Unless you hate yourself and feel the need to get wasted, just to have a good time. 
"How Do I have Fun Without Drinking?" Google
It can be tough to have fun when you are learning how to not drink when everyone else is.  People will peer pressure you incessantly, implying that you're no fun or a buzzkill.  That's why it's good to come up with a plan for having fun despite not having anything to drink.

So if you've watched this video Charisma on Commandand decided to quit drinking, take a look at these tips for having a good time when you're sober and everyone else around you isn't.  Obviously there are a million ways how to have fun without drinking, but the big question is, "How do you do it in an environment where everyone else is?"  Hopefully these musings help :-)"

From Charisma on Command

As a nondrinker ( of alcohol ) I'm not sure how I write this without sounding like a prick here, but I'll give it my best shot, but one of my famous quotes is no promises, so we'll see how it goes.

Before I'll layout how to have a good time without drinking alcohol, I'll first explain why I don't drink alcohol so you know where I'm coming from.

One of the reasons why I don't drink alcohol, is one of the reasons why I'm not religious, because I don't like what it does to people. Which might sound ironic and even contradicting because a lot of the nondrinkers in the world are some of the most religious people because they consider alcohol to be a sin. And here I am as an Agnostic saying that I don't drink because I don't like what it does to people.

They say the most honest people who are drunkest and alcoholics. OK, maybe I only say that, but it's true because when you drink alcohol, you lose braincells and therefor control of who you are as a person. So what you end up doing when you're drunk is saying and doing things that you normally wouldn't do, including making a complete ass out of yourself or even worse. Abusive parents, spouses, romantic partners, bosses are also alcoholics. Not in every case, but in a lot of cases. And also I don't like the taste of alcohol. So I guess my brain, heart, and my tastebuds thank me every time when I drink a Pepsi, ice tea, or water instead of a beer or another alcoholic drink.

And here is where the sounding like the prick comes in: every time I hear someone say they can't have a good time without drinking, I take that as seriously as the person who says they can't get through the day without their Starbucks: ( or whatever their favorite coffee house of choice is ) does life really suck that much for you, or do you really dislike yourself that much that you feel the need to sound and look braindead or like an escaped mental patient in order to have a good time?

And then there are the peer pressures for why people not just drink alcohol, but drink to excess. And I go through this in my own personal life with my drinking friends who wonder why I don't drink and then say: " I know you don't drink and I respect that." Which is their way of saying they don't respect my choice here. Americans especially hipsters and have this dying need to be cool and be seen as cool. Cool people not just drink, but drink to excess, so other people feel they have to do the same thing in order to be cool in America.

How to have a good time in life without drinking alcohol?

Simple questions deserve simple answers: what do you enjoy in life and who do you enjoy hanging out with? Unless the answer to that question is you enjoy getting drunk and hanging out with other drunks, and playing drinking games, and you respect and like yourself as an individual, you shouldn't have any issues enjoying life and enjoying your friends in life, without alcohol. Just do the things that you like doing in life and even do them with your friends, but without alcohol.

And this also sounds like me being a prick, but it's true so I'm going to say this: but the people who feel the need get plastered ( or shit-faced ) in order to have a good time in life, I suggest that they don't like themselves that much and have real self-confidence and self-respect issues and use alcohol to escape their realities, which just leads to other problems. One of the biggest mistakes that people can make in life and perhaps only intentionally hurting innocent people is only worst, is escaping and ignoring the truth and your own reality in life.

Evan Carmichael: 'John F. Kennedy's Top 10 Rules For Success'

Source:Evan Carmichael- From some of President John F. Kennedy's greatest speeches
"John F. Kennedy's Top 10 Rules For Success:

In this video we're going to learn how to improve our lives by analyzing John F. Kennedy's rules
for success."

From Evan Carmichael

The brilliance of what John F. Kennedy talked about in life either as President of before his presidency, even though a lot of what he talked about had to do with public service and his own government service, can be translated into real life and how Americans live their own lives and should live their own lives. Not so much the decisions that they make in life, but how they go about making their own personal decisions.

Source:The Insider Tales- "INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES BY JOHN F. KENNEDY"
Move forward

People should not just appreciate what we have, but if anything be more focused on what we have, instead of what we don't have yet and perhaps will never achieve, but we should always strive to be the best that we can be. To always strive for perfection knowing that we'll never get there on that road of life, not so we chase our tales and just waste a lot of energy, but to be the best people that we can be. To be the best person, parent, uncle/aunt, sibling, friend, what we do professionally, our hobbies, etc. To be the best people that we can be in life that we possibly can.

Service

To go to President John F. Kennedy's inauguration: "ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." Don't expect people to do for you, what you can't or are either not willing to do for yourself. You'll accomplish a lot more in life if instead of waiting around for things in life and for people to do give you things, because you're simply doing everything for yourself that you can and being the best and most successful person that you can possibly be. In this sense at least, JFK sounds like Ayn Rand here.

High standards

If you want the best out of life, you not only have to work for it, but you have to expect it as well. NFL teams don't win the Super Bowl by believing they're not even good enough to get to the Super Bowl. They know going into the playoffs, or at least late in the regular season that they have a really good team and perhaps even a great one and know they're good enough to win the whole thing. And then set out to do that and execute their goal here. And that's just one example with education being another one, where you can't have great schools, teachers, and students if you don't expect them to be great and hold them accountable when they're not as good as they can be, or even good enough and not even passing the grade.

Freedom for all

When race, ethnicity, complexion, gender, sexuality, religion become more important in America than the person themself, you have a real problem. And no, I'm not talking about not seeing the biological characteristics about people, because we would have to be blind to miss them, but instead see people as people first and more importantly as individuals and not as a member of any group. Judge people individually and you'll have a lot more friends, colleagues, mentors in life, then if you took the attitude you don't like that person's race, ethnicity, complexion, religion, etc.

Resolve differences?

Not sure I like this rule because not all differences can be resolved; hard to imagine how a Communist becomes a Libertarian and vice-versa. Or how a religious fundamentalist who perhaps even has their own definitions of what their religion is supposed to be that's not written in any religious text, gives all that up and decides that they're wrong and religion is actually garbage ( to keep it clean ) and all the sudden becomes an Atheist. Or how an Atheist who is so hardcore and militant with their Atheism to the point that they see anyone who is religious at all as either crazy or is a moron and perhaps even believes that religion should be outlawed, ( like a Communist ) all the sudden decides that they're not just religious, but a religious fundamentalist. Not all differences can be resolved simply because sometimes the two sides are just too far apart.

I guess my positive note here would be to learn to agree to disagree: instead of focusing on what divides you with someone or other people, how about focusing on what you do have in common ( if anything ) instead. And similar to judging people as individuals and as nothing else, you might find that you have some things in common with that person or people and pick up new friends. And if you're so far apart with someone or some people that what they stand for offends you, then maybe you should just move on and find new people to associate with. Which would also be better for your blood pressure with fewer intense arguments. Your heart would thank you for that.

Express your beliefs

You want people to know what you believe and who you are as a person, then speak up! Let people into your own world and bring them in to see what kind of person you are. You can't drive a car until you start it. And you won't make friends and obtain associates in life, if they don't know who you are and what skills you bring to the table and what kind of person you are, what you believe, and why you believe it.

Evan Carmichael's video is called John F. Kennedy's Top 10 Rules For Success: I gave you six because a lot of his rules actually overlap. Like moving forward, ask not what your country can do for you, and a couple others. And as I said before a lot what Jack Kennedy talked about in life he was doing as a public servant: first as a member of Congress and then as President, but what he talked about as a public servant can be translated into real life as well. Which is one thing that I believe makes him so popular that he was not only so intelligent, but he was readable and easy to listen to. His brain was like a great book of commonsense.

The Beacon: Ben Wilterdink- 'How to Talk to Millennials About Socialism'

Source:The Beacon- Tell Millennials that their laptops and smartphones, could become too damn expensive, if Socialists were ever in charge. 
"By now it is largely considered common knowledge that American Millennials are more enamored with socialism than previous generations. While cutoff points vary, Millennials are most commonly understood as the generation of those born between 1981 and 1996—meaning that, as of 2019, Millennials range in age from as old as 38 to as young as 23. Poll after poll has found that this generation is increasingly skeptical of capitalism and more open to trying socialism. While those headline findings don’t quite present a full and accurate picture of what’s going on, the trend is concerning, and should spur those of us who value a system of government that recognizes individual rights, human dignity, and the power of mutually beneficial voluntary exchange to be ready to defend those principles in the public square."

"Jaboukie Young-White talks to young people and Senator Bernie Sanders to find out why socialism isn’t the taboo it once was."

Source:The Daily Show- U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders (Democrat Socialist, Socialist Republic of Vermont) and Jaboukie White, a young dude who doesn’t know how the real world works.

To make a more serious point, first: I believe Millennials are now embracing Socialists and socialism, is because they believe that they're being screwed by American capitalism and for good reasons ( and perhaps don't like liberal democracy either ) and know enough about politics and economics to think that socialism, is the natural alternative to capitalism. So instead of so many Americans getting screwed by private enterprises, they expect Uncle Sam ( or Uncle Bernie Sanders ) to come in and provide for them the services and even income that traditionally was provided for by American private enterprise.

Now how to talk about socialism and explain why socialism isn't good for Millennials.

What do stereotypical Millennials ( at least ) value in America?

When you think of Millennials at least socially ( not socialist, necessarily ) you think of their love for new-technology, social media, celebrity culture, what's called reality TV, Hollywood, high-end fashion, etc. Explain to them how all of those things would go away if Uncle Sammy or Uncle Bernie would then become in charge of all of those products.

What drives American capitalism and private enterprise: innovation, talent, intelligence, and competition. You have an idea and product that others want that's affordable and you know how to market it, you'll do very well in America. You put Uncle Sam or Uncle Bernie, or Aunt Liz in charge of those products or at the very least allow them to tax the hell out of those companies and services that Millennials cherish so much, you'll get fewer of those products and they'll become more expensive as well to try to compete with all the new taxes and regulations, assuming they're able to even stay in business after Uncle Bernie and Aunt Liz are done with them.

You think 7-10 bucks for a cup of coffee is too much, put Big Government in charge of it and get use to paying 10-15 bucks for a cup of coffee. Government doesn't need to innovate, it sure as hell doesn't want competition, and doesn't even need intelligence to stay in business. Just taxpayers or foreign countries that are willing to lend them money.

KrisAnne Hall: 'From Socialist To Constitutionalist - My Story'

Source:KrissAnne Hall- Don't ask me to explain this photo 
"From Socialist To Constitutionalist - My Story

What does it take to make a hard core socialist into a true faith Constitutionalist? Listen as this wide awake story is told to not only encourage you, but to show you how to reach others."

From KrisAnne Hall

Source:Namely Liberty- "From Socialist To Constitutionalist - My Story - NAMELY LIBERTY"
From Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy

"Constitutionalism is the idea, often associated with the political theories of John Locke and the founders of the American republic, that government can and should be legally limited in its powers, and that its authority or legitimacy depends on its observing these limitations. This idea brings with it a host of vexing questions of interest not only to legal scholars, but to anyone keen to explore the legal and philosophical foundations of the state.

How can a government be legally limited if law is the creation of government? Does this mean that a government can be ‘self-limiting’? Is this even possible? If not, then is there some way of avoiding this implication? If meaningful limitation is indeed to be possible, perhaps constitutional constraints must somehow be ‘entrenched’, that is, resistant to change or removal by those whose powers are constrained? Perhaps they must not only be entrenched, but enshrined in written rules. If so, how are these rules to be interpreted?

In terms of their original, public meaning or the intentions of their authors, or in terms of the, possibly ever-developing, values and principles they express? How, in the end, one answers these questions depends crucially on how one conceives the nature, identity and authority of constitutions. Must a constitution establish a stable framework for the exercise of public power which is in some way fixed by factors like original public meaning or authorial intentions? Or can it be a living entity which grows and develops in tandem with changing political values and principles? These and other such questions are explored below." 

So to understand KrisAnne Hall's definition of what it means to be a Socialist: I guess she was a Communist and perhaps even a Che-Guevara-Fidel Castro loving Communist, until she woke one day and found Jesus. Perhaps she didn't just have Che t-shirts or a closet full of Che t-shirts, but she personally made Che t-shirts and hats as well. This might be a slight exaggeration, but if you watch her video and just the first 5-10 minutes of it, you could easily get that idea. Unless you're too busy staring at your i-phone or something and completely missed her story.

How about constitutionalism: if you think of the terms constitutional conservative and what's supposed to be the philosophy of constitutional conservatism, you're talking about someone who believes in conserving the Constitution. So in the United States that would be the U.S. Constitution. So Conservatives believe in conserving which is the whole point of being a Conservative and conservatism.

So if you're a Constitutional Conservative, you believe in conserving the Constitution. Not just parts of it that into one partisan or another's current political objectives, but the whole damn document and every amendment in it, whether you agree with every aspect of the Constitution or not. Because you don't want big government coming in and outlawing certain freedoms that we have, just because it decides it doesn't believe individuals should have that freedom, or there's some popular movement to outlaw that freedom or freedoms. Just one example of what it means to be a Constitutional Conservative.

Just to give you a brief, modern history of Constitutional Conservatives and constitutional conservatism: When then Representative Michele Bachmann and former Senator Rick Santorum ran for President back in 2011-12, ( Michele Bachmann's campaign didn't make it even to 2012. Not even sure if her campaign qualified as short-lived. ) they were both throwing around the term Constitutional Conservative.

But here's the irony and even catch about their Representative Bachmann and Senator Santorum's self-descriptions of their politics: they were both running to amend 2-3 amendments of the U.S. Constitution. In Senator Santorum's case, 4 because he was talking about amending the 1st Amendment to outlaw pornography, which would actually cover the 4th Amendment as well and what people do in the privacy of their own homes and free time. And the 10th and 14th Amendments to outlaw same-sex marriage from the Federal level. And he was also flirting to come out in favor outlawing gambling as well at the Federal level. Which would also come with serious constitutional issues and challenges as well.

So to sum up the Bachmann and Santorum presidential campaigns and to put it simply: neither one of them, at least when they were running for President were Constitutional Conservatives. They were no more Constitutional Conservatives, than Bernie Sanders is a Libertarian and Ronald Reagan was a Communist. And to go back to one of my original points about Constitutional Conservative: you either believe in conserving the Constitution or not. You're all in on the U.S. Constitution, or you're not a Constitutional Conservative. Constitutional Conservatives are not political partisans ( whether they're on the Right or Left ) simply there to conserve the aspects of the Constitution that they like, while working to outlaw and amend aspects of the Constitution that doesn't fit their politics.

The Atlantic: Amanda Mull- 'The Rise of Coffee Shaming': About Damn Time!

Source:The Atlantic- "Buying Coffee Won't Make You Poor." Tell that to people who are drowning in debt.
"Suze Orman wants young people to stop “peeing” away millions of dollars on coffee. Last month, the personal-finance celebrity ignited a controversy on social media when a video she starred in for CNBC targeted a familiar villain: kids these days and their silly $5 lattes. Because brewing coffee at home is less expensive, Orman argued, purchasing it elsewhere is tantamount to flushing money away, which makes it a worthy symbol of Millennials’ squandered resources."

Read Amanda Mull's piece at The Atlantic

"Today Shelby Church & I are trying LA's most Instagrammed coffee shops! We're stopping by Alfred Coffee, Blue Bottle, Philz, Carrera Cafe + more. We'll be giving you all the info you need to know about the cafes you see on social media & whether or not they're worth the expensive price tags."

Source:Morgan Yates- Saving the rest of us from having to drink a lot of coffee. LOL
From Morgan Yates

I'm a big believer in freedom of choice as a Liberal and we see ourselves as the freedom of choice or pro-choice blog, but just as long as I or no one else has to pay for someone else's choices. If someone else wants to piss their money away on coffee or anything else, that's their choice. Just so long as no innocent person is getting hurt from someone else's personal choices. Personal freedom, is just too damn expensive without personal responsibility.

So if Millennial's or anyone else wants to spend 5-10 bucks on cup of coffee every time they buy coffee, when they could make their own damn coffee at home which is just as good as the coffee as they're buying, that's their damn problem, but not mine or anyone else's.

If they want to take the attitude: "Even though I know I'm drowning in student debt and I can't work enough to support myself and perhaps even work jobs that I know way too qualified to work, but I have to take this job, because I can't get the good job that I'm trained for, but being seen in coffee houses and buying and drinking coffee house coffee and being seen walking down the street or sitting outside at a cafe with my coffee staring at my phone is a price that I have to pay to be cool in America, then so be it." ( And perhaps they would use more colorful language than that )

Which gets to my point about coffee houses in America: it's not the coffee, stupid! Or at least not the flavor of the coffee and the quality of the coffee that's the issue here. Coffee house cups and coffee house coffee are like jewelry or t-shirts that have social message on them, or smartphones: they're status symbols that the so in-crowd in America believes that they have to have and be seen with in public in order to be cool and popular in America.

It's not the side of the brain that tells us what we like and don't like that's driving so many hipsters ( and wannabe hipsters ) in America to the nearest and coolest coffee house, but the part of the brain that wants us to be cool and popular.

So I'm glad that Suze Orman and others are at least pointing out the financial costs for young people who decide to spend so much of their own money on coffee house coffee in America. Money that could be spent for half as much at home by these hipsters who could simply just make their own coffee that's just as good, for half as much as they spend at their favorite coffee house.

And if they want to continue pissing their money away which is money that they probably can't afford to piss away, that's their damn business. Just as long as I and everyone else doesn't have to pay for their personal decisions.

20th Century Fox: Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid 1969- Paul Newman & Robert Redford Are Butch & Sundance

Source:20th Century Fox- Paul Newman and Robert Redford, are Butch and Sundance 
"Paul Newman and Robert Redford set the standard for the "buddy film" with this box office smash set in the Old West. The Sundance Kid (Redford) is the frontier's fastest gun. His sidekick, Butch Cassidy (Newman), is always dreaming up new ways to get rich fast. If only they could blow open a baggage car without also blowing up the money-filled safe inside... Or remember that Sundance can't swim before they escape a posse by leaping off a cliff into rushing rapids... Times are changing in the west and life is getting tougher.

"So Butch and Sundance pack their guns, don new duds, and, with Sundance's girlfriend (Katharine Ross), head down to Bolivia. Never mind that they don't speak Spanish - they'll manage somehow. A winner of four Academy Awards (including best screenplay and best song), here is a thoroughly enjoyable blend of fact and fancy done with true affection for a bygone era and featuring the two flashiest, friendliest funniest outlaws who ever called out "hands up!"

Source:Michigan Theater- "Michigan Theater: Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid (1969)"
From 20th Century Fox

Paul Newman and Robert Redford are Buch and Sundance. And I could leave at that, at least for anyone who has seen the movie and understands. They made those roles their's and if there is any one movie that I believe an actor would want to be known for, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid would have to be that movie, because Newman and Redford were so perfect with those roles.

You're talking about two American outlaws who rob banks for a living and Paul Newman who runs this gang, makes Butch Cassidy almost seem likable or at the very least entertaining, because of his charm and his depth ability as a comedic actor and American smart-ass, very similar to Cary Grant or Burt Reynolds, Newman could make bad guys seem likable and have you rooting for them.

You're talking about two men who rob banks for a living, who are career criminals, who escape to Bolivia which even in the late 1800s had to be one of the poorest country's not just in South America, but in the world and they're stealing money from people who probably in most cases don't have enough money and yet you're literally rooting for them at the end of the movie to escape from the predicament that they're in and somehow shoot their way out, instead of staying boxed in and either being captured or killed. 

Butch and Sundance is a great movie is you like westerns. It's a great movie if you like action/adventure. It's a great movie if you like action/comedy. Hell, it's a great movie if you like comedy. It's a great movie if you're a guy who loves great female distractions with Katharine Ross playing a big role in the movie. Similar to a great Alfred Hitchcock movie, Butch and Sundance has everything in it. It's one of those movies when you're home one night and you don't know what to have dinner, but you're hungry and you have everything to eat, so you decide to eat everything . Butch and Sundance has everything for everybody.
