Maybe it should be "Love means that when you say you're sorry, you actually mean it."

It goes hand in hand withh its other stupid line.
When she says "You had me at hello" it makes me want to puke..

A criticism of you personally? No, of course not. I don't know you.

A criticism of the baby boomer generation? Yes. Trying to stay on topic at least a little bit, that generation is the one who screamed about peace and love, but gave us soaring divorce rates, broken families, and AIDs. They had a chance to change the world, but instead they sold out in favor of SUVs and the Home Shopping Network. I'm hardly alone in my disappointment in the "Me Generation." They had the single most prosperous society in American history, and they squandered it on themselves.

I think that we Baby Boomers are pretty spectacular as a generation.

Keeping true to this thread I will also say the "we" have made many exceptional movies, too.
