icepixie"The objective of most romantic comedies is to place various obstacles in the path of the happy union of their protagonists before getting them together in the end. There is hardly a larger obstacle for said protagonists to overcome than abject hatred of each other."
It's never a good sign when I'm already getting flippant with the first sentences of the first real paper I have to write this month.

And I don't spend time angsting over how very much I want to sleep with them. Instead, I find that sheer loathing does a lot to keep feelings of sexual attraction at bay.
But perhaps I'm just odd that way.

Maybe not, but it is terribly funny!
Wait, this isn't a case of:
"I hate your guts!"
"Well, I hate your internal *and* external organs!"
*couple has hot, sweaty sex before realizing that made no sense*
Is it?

Well, it involves You've Got Mail and The Shop Around the Corner, so there's actually no sex at all, at least not in the movies themselves... ;)
