Why Juno tries too hard, and ends up sucking:
"It began with a chair." - first line.
What the fuck began with a chair? They had sex on a couch. This line is an example of being "artsy", but in all honesty, it means absolutely NOTHING. Terrible writing.
- Walking around with Sunny D.
- Completely retarded music.
- Orange Tic-Tacs.
- Hamburger Phone.
- "It ended with a chair."

Actually.... you can see the chair they do it in pretty clearly in the beginning of the movie, hence the line. But I can understand your not paying attention since you seemingly went into this movie prepared to hate it.
But fine, I will not argue. Everyone's entitled to their opinion. From what I see, hating a movie on the basis that almost everyone is raving about it is in nowadays.
EDIT : Gotta admit though, the music
is a bit overbearing at times. ;)
