Favorite romantic comedies 1. Groundhog Day 2. When Harry Met Sally… It’s a classic. I read an article a little while ago that was ripping Billy Crystal’s character for being a sexist jerk, and while the writer was completely correct, I feel like they kind of missed the point. Yeah, he’s a sexist jerk, but he’s _intentionally_ a sexist jerk. ---
