All Things End

The past couple of weeks have been interesting as several pop-culture phenomenon have concluded all at the same time. We have seen the end of stories about a fantasy world, political satire, superheroes, and some nerds who eat together, that have captured the collective hearts and imaginations of millions of people around the world in… […]

Weird words we use everyday

To tell you the truth I think all words are weird. Language in general is a very peculiar thing. It is just grunts and sounds arranged in a particular pattern or sequence that we have all collectively agreed has some sort of meaning. English in particular is complex and hard to learn as in it’s… […]

MET Gala 2019

I know this is a little late but I had to do a post about this year’s MET Gala. Every year the beautiful and the rich get together in an extravagant display of excess and wealth for…some reason. They choose a theme, people prepare, they make a scene, and stop for lots and lots of […]

Some Stuff

As you know, I stopped posting for over a year and started again just recently. But during that time it wasn’t that I was not writing, I just didn’t complete anything that I wrote. Currently I have 18 draft posts just sitting there waiting to be re-examined and maybe posted. Well this is one of […]

Bad Trek

The last post I wrote for this blog before I went on a ridiculously long break was about Star Trek Discovery. The show had just started, airing the first 2 episodes which created and destroyed the world I thought this story was to take place in. I had enjoyed the episodes but because I hadn’t… […]

Product placement

I still have friends that complain about product placement in movies. It used to be something that got to me as well but many years ago I kinda just got over it. Why? Because it properly reflects a realistic version of the world we live in. Look down at your clothes, look at your desk, […]

Until

Music is a strange thing. It is a series of strung together sounds that are pleasing to the listener. Unless of course you are an old crotchety man waving his stick at the damned youth of today. But music has a way of instilling emotions, making you move fast, or slowing you down for just… […]

Get untethered

I don’t like horror movies. As a young child I was afflicted with night terrors and that combined with an over active imagination did not bode well for an evening’s slumber. As I grew older the terrors waned but my dislike for horror persisted. But every once in a while a horror movie catches my… […]

If you liked the Manga…

Every once in a while I have the audacity to let someone else pick the movie I am going to watch. That is just crazy! But the other day my friend begged me to go see Alita: Battle Angel. Despite my reservations and due to him offering to pay, I said yes. This was a movie I… […]

Stop Living in the Past

Nostalgianoun a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal association something done or presented in order to evoke feelings of nostalgia I get why nostalgia sells. For the most part it just makes people feel good. It is a familiarity taking you back to a […]

Four in a row

In the last 2 weeks I have watched 4 vastly different movies. They are all completely different genres, styles, and quality. But they have all managed to be good. I am really happy about that cuz lately movies that are available to me seem to be kinda crappy. Yeah there have been one… …more

Quarter-Life Crisis

Have you ever heard the term “quarter-life crisis”? Well I hadn’t until the other morning. I was listening to my regular morning show and they were talking about this phenomenon. Apparently it is just like a mid-life crisis except earlier. It happens to people in their mid to late 20’s. For most this is… …more

These are all authentic comments posted in their entirety, neither edited for content or grammar or for their lewd nature, enjoy! Cory says: will the mouse play while the cats away? Nelly says: doesnt it always? just finished lunch whats up with you? Cory says: not much just trying to stay …more

Handwritten

Handwriting is going the way of the “Hammer” pants. Actually maybe not cuz those seem to be making a come back. Or should I say “drop crotch pants”. Whatever. Nel totally called it too. I guess I will have to… …more

It’s alright I guess

Apparently my first post of the week is going to be on Tuesdays now. I just can never fit it in on Mondays anymore. Yeah, Mondays are generally busier but I was managing before and now I don’t seem to get the chance. Oh well. I will try to get back on the Monday, Wednesday… […]

What a week.

This week 3 crazy ridiculous things have happened that have left me in a strange place not knowing how to handle them. First As I have been complaining about, and should really stop, I moved. I knew the place wasn’t the best but with a few touch ups it would be fine. But… …more

All She Needs is a Mani and a Dentist

I know this is late. I really should have posted it yesterday. But I was too busy being in pain, staring at the ceiling, while being mocked on the phone by my ‘friend’. All in all not the best of days. It is all due to the move that I was complaining about before. No… […]

Here I go again

This weekend I am moving. I hate moving. And I have moved a lot in my life. When I was younger moving was a fun exciting thing. I didn’t have to do anything my parents would run around packing all my things. It would all fit into 1 box. Then they would take my… …more

Where’s My Salvation?

  I love the first two Terminator movies. At the time of release they were inventive, interesting, and epic. The story was complicated intertwining the future, the past, people, and robots. They were well written, casted and directed. This may be… …more

There was nothing else

  Yeah, yeah, I know, where have I been? Well as for my post last week I have been busy. It can’t be helped. It is kinda late and I doubt any of you care but I saw Angels &amp… …more
