Eat Pray Love - Just Bear With Me And Read This

Post by skb12172 »

Words cannot adequately express the inherent loathing I have for Elizabeth Gilbert, the author of the book which they also, incredibly, made into a movie. This describes it as well as anything I could ever say. It's as if this person looked into my soul and then articulated what I was feeling.

The only thing I would add is to the arrogance part. The sheer presumptuousness and arrogance of thinking she were entitled to be an example to anyone else as far as how to live/fix their life. I reserve the same level of scorn for this woman that I do for "Kendra."

Read the review. It's short, but absolutely spot-on accurate. It's also hilarious just because it's so...damn...true.

p.s. Don't forget to read the comments after the review. Also spot-on and funny in a hilarious-because-it's-true kind of way.

We need Riff Tracks for chick flicks so guys can watch them.

I really wish the West would stop polluting India with our hippies. We have a perfectly good western elightenment tradition these fools are ignorant of.

The comments at the end of this page are just GOLDEN! All the better that most of them are from women who feel the same about this piece of excrement as I do... :twisted:
