ironie? mais oui!

Oh my. First, in interest of full disclosure, let me say that I like Tom Cruise. I mean, I think he's cute, I enjoy his movies. Hey, he's not impregnating my daughter and turning her into a Scientology zombie.

That being said, I saw a poster on the side of a bus for a new movie Mr. Cruise is in. The tag line is (are you ready?)

"If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything"

Really. How perfect is that?

Xenu, anyone?
