"LA's Fine! It's Great!"

This AIDS-awareness webseries "In the Moment" is reasonably well produced, acted, and written, as PSA webisodes go. I mean, it's at least twenty times better than QuarterLife. But it is still worth watching primarily to make fun of the embarrassingly "fierce" faggotiness of the dialogue.

Some dialogue highlights from the first ep: "Who's thirty and dirty?!" "Whore!" "I'm Edgar. You're hot." "And Mike gets discounts with his senior citizen card." "Woof."

The most realistic--and haunting--thing about this video is the terrifying sexual avidity of Edgar's gaze. The guy who checked my groceries at the Wegman's on Santa Monica Blvd used to fix me with an identical (and identically creepy) sexual stare.

Also: is "Woof" making a comeback or something? I thought that expression died in the early 80s, along with all the men who ever used it. Moreover, isn't "Woof" like a come-on or catcall to be used on passers-by, not on ALREADY INTIMATE ACQUAINTANCES? LOL.

Last thing: Why is it that when people type on their laptops in bad movies or TV shows (or, I guess, WEBISODES) they always TYPE SO HARD?
