Revisits #30.


Part 2 of my "Fish From The Quantum Sea #5", recap.

Picking up with part 14...


Things that don't give me nightmares #14.
(Lindor truffles!!!)

Yep, Lindor is still awesome.
Too bad there's no Lindt store anymore. :-(


Things that don't give me nightmares #15.
(These two goofballs)

Wembley & Digby.
We lost Digby 3 years later. :-(

Wembley has gone on to be our oldest kitty ever at coming up on 11 this summer.
:-)


Things that don't give me nightmares #16.
(After some hemming and hawing, Romero's Dead cycle)

The "hemming and hawing", was the point.

I still fret and worry over family.
Even the relatives who piss me off.

I still suck at love.
Well....actually, I'm actually not too bad, where I trip up is the part of being good at capitalism.
Actually....I'm pretty smart with money if I ever get my hands on it, where I trip up is pleasing the corporate overlords.
Actually....I'm good at the JOB part of that, I'm just not good at being a smiling robot that thinks his duties matter, and that this is a good system.
Women don't like to hear that you want to burn it all down in a revolution, it's not....stable.
They don't think you'd make a good dad for their offspring if you think like a super villain.
So....okay, I guess I still suck at love.

Porn keeps being boring and lame, but it keeps pulling me back in.
I'm like a gamble-holic that thinks "this time for SURE!".
Nope, it's always a geek-show of weird and stupid kinks, and I end up watching it for comedy.

And finally, the Romero Dead cycle.
Did a better review of those here.


Things that don't give me nightmares #17.
(World War Z, upcoming (then) Marvel flicks, people helping in Haiti)

World War Z movie was "meh".
You gotta spend "Lord Of The Rings", level money to do it right, or don't bother.

The MCU.
It was just taking off back then.
Now it's been around a decade.
But, I said all this in part 12.

Aid workers in Haiti.
Well, it's like Fred Rogers said, when there's bad things going on in the world, look for the helpers, there are always people helping.


Things that don't give me nightmares #18.
(That there's enough sanity in society to loathe reality TV, and...my "utility belt")

Not enough to shut reality TV down forever.
Not enough to stop the first reality TV president.
Well...there ARE, Trump lost the popular vote by 3 million votes, it's just our system is fucking broken.
Get rid of the electoral college, install ranked choice, boom, the worst sleazeballs only appeal to a minority of halfwits.
Their influence over this planet ends overnight.
It's why they fight like the Tasmanian Devil on steroids and crack to keep the status quo in place.

The utility belt....I never used that.
I felt silly.
Ah well.
Better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.
You never know...


Things that don't give me nightmares #19.
(Conan's classy goodbye speech leaving NBC)

He was pissed off though.
In "Conan O'Brien Can't Stop", he got pretty candid.
Andy Richter held back even less.


Things that don't give me nightmares #21.
(The couple of hours when I thought Richard Dawkins was going to try to lock up Joey Ratz)

Ratzinger retired, and now we've got this new dimwit who stands for all the same bigoted, homophobic, misogynistic, pedophile-defending bullshit as the last asshole, but somehow, he's tricked liberals into thinking he's a reformer, in spite of doing fucking nothing.
Go figure.


Things that don't give me nightmares #22.
(Nobody Loves Harry Hembock!)

Said my goodbyes to the character here and here.
I've got a new thing brewing though.


Things that don't give me nightmares #23.
(Fucks angst. Eh, an addendum to 22, really)

I was back-pedaling from the philosophy rant.
I went back over that in a quick paragraph in revisits 9.
Dunno why that was such a shame drama.
Oh, yeah I do, see part 26.


Things that don't give me nightmares #24.
(The good stuff in Krazy For Decades)

Which grew into En-Mike-Lopedia, which whittled back down to movie reviews, and Meedya Morsels.


Things that don't give me nightmares #25.
(Song of the week! (A.K.A. SOWTHIFL))

Dead.
Obsolete.
Like I said here, I share songs on Facebook if ever now.
Blogging music as posts is just clumsy and cumbersome.
I mean, comments is fine, but posts?
Meh.


Things that don't give me nightmares #26.
(Fish From The Quantum Sea!!)

Dead.
Obsolete.
I needed a lot of self-reassurance to hold my marbles together in those early days.
Had a lot of demons to sort out, and a decade of WF trolls didn't help.

Fucking trolls almost made Ahmed Best kill himself.
Trolls ain't no joke.
I think we've all had our bad times with them to varying degrees.


Things the don't give me nightmares #27.
(En-Mike-lopedia!)

See part 24.


And that's the end.
Now to link these to the old post in comments.

Then, to compile Revisits 1-30.
