The Search for Love in Manhattan

May 30, 2005

Why did we once think Brad Pitt was really hot?

Is it that he used to be hot, and he simply isn't now?

Or were we suffering from some collective delusion?

The cowboy hat and the hair dryer. Yeehaw.

3) Stairs said (on 05/31/05 at 02:15 AM):

He's pretty, but has never been my type.

4) campbell said (on 05/31/05 at 05:20 AM):

1) Because he was

2) He still is

You, sir, are fickle.

Eh. He never really did it for me. Not from the neck up anyway.

chris, roy, and campbell: You'll see from my next post (on Tuesday) that, if I haven't recanted, at least I realize that the answer to the last question in this post is "no."

Stairs and Adam875: I have corrected the stylistic oddity your comments used to refer to (and adjusted your comments to match). While technically correct, it was pretty infelicitous prose. Chalk it up to too much Memorial Day merriment.

he was, is and will always be hot.

8) MzOuiser said (on 05/31/05 at 11:22 AM):

Nobody looks hot next to Angelina Jolie.

9) Stairs said (on 05/31/05 at 01:07 PM):

I knew that you could be depended upon. Of course, I'm still preoccupied with trans-Atlantic grammatical variation; I'm curious to know which bits of each that you prefer?

10) Mushlette said (on 05/31/05 at 01:23 PM):

He's still hot, for the love of God.

11) Schorsch said (on 05/31/05 at 01:34 PM):

Faustus, he never was... Those who thought he was may have suffered (and may still suffer) from collective delusion. Of course, as so often, this is a matter of perspective: It might just as well be only me, in which case we're still dealing with delusion - but not in the collective form...

Of Ocean's twelve, he's not even in my top five, and depending on my mood, sometimes finishes behind Elliott Gould.

13) Dave said (on 05/31/05 at 10:42 PM):

Hm, ya hadda love him as Achilles in "Troy"..

14) Mr. HK said (on 06/ 1/05 at 05:58 AM):

Brad? Not hot? Ummm. I don't think so.

15) Joe R said (on 06/ 1/05 at 11:55 AM):

Brad Pitt, in "Thelma and Thersa, set the record for hot. Now he's aging. Sorry about that.

A friend let me know about your blog, and I just wanted to let you know it's hysterical. It's somewhat like reading my thoughts if I was this honest with myself.

Keep up the good work.
