Dance Dance Underpants

I played (and saw) Dance Dance Revolution for the first time today, and according to [livejournal.com profile] rikchik, I'm "a prodigy". Yuss Apparently one can purchase two dance pads and the game for $200, and I'm thinking: IGGMSOT.

Then we all watched Fight Club, where it somehow managed to elevate itself from a movie I saw once and enjoyed to one of my favorite movies, period. It is a fine movie, and by its very nature it's... differently enjoyable on its second viewing. I also had the special treat of being the only person in the crowd who had seen the film already and knew what happy things were in store, and therefore willingly got into that special, illusory feeling that I was somehow presenting the story to them myself. Ahh, it's nice.

And Fight Club had underpants in it and we made underpants jokes and therefore my subject line makes sense. Can I go now?

Your guess is probably right; I hadn't knowingly seen the acronym before using it just then, either.

My "best movie ever" movies remain 2001: A Space Odyssey and The Manchurian Candidate, which also deal with mind games (very literally, in the latter instance), but not in the mislead-the-audience sense.
