Dear Inception:

Sorry you were so cerebral and loveless and I guessed your ending even faster than I guessed the ending of M. Night Watermelon’s masterpiece The Village, but you were awfully nice looking and you did, for one shining moment, make me think that if JGL wanted to buy me a $9 Pabst Blue Ribbon at an annoying hipster bar, I might let him. But only if Juno was there too.

Best,

Katie

The fact that you called him M. Night Watermelon is hysterical to me. I always call him something that sounds like Shy-a-melon, but that is better.
