After watching THX 1138, I've decided I agree with Taylor's sentiment: The future really, really sucks. Oh yes, and Taylor's previous comment, while in Blockbuster (when I questioned whether the movie would suck): "Hey, it's a DVD, it can't be bad!"

Driving back into town, in the right hand lane, I had a driver pull out of a line of stopped cars and into my lane, nearly causing an accident. I didn't see his turn signal until he was already changing, and thus didn't slow down (since my lane was clear). And he obviously didn't bother looking before deciding to amble on over to the next lane. The only thing that saved us from a collision was the fact that there was an empty turn lane to the right, and I swerved into it, went around the guy, then back. The thing that really amazes me on reflection is that I only had a couple tenths of a second to act, and that somehow my brain was able to process the danger, figure out what to do, and swerve, all long before I "knew" what was going on. It makes you wonder how often our reflexes save us..and what would happen if they didn't work so well.

Oh, and Aeon Flux actually wasn't that bad of a movie. Kinda strange, but not too bad.
