Apparently, 67% of women are not happy with me.
Gee. That would mean 33% are, which is a far higher margin of satisfaction than I would have expected, with absolutely no effort whatsoever on my part.

here's the question:
Name five movies (or books, or other works of art if movies aren't sufficient) that you love and would like to watch again but don't because they seem to demand more attention than you can find to give to them, and so you (maybe) end up watching instead cinematic trash that doesn't require you to wake up for it.
brought to you by Marvin.
(And hopefully this evening I'll answer it! - preferably before fulfilling honorary boy duties.)
