Happy Halloween!!

Hi, hello, and a very happy Halloween everyone! 

October really flew by. I swear it was just yesterday I was putting up the Halloween decorations.

One of my favorite things about Halloween is handing out candy to trick or treaters. This year I got full-sized candy bars, KitKats and Nerds Gummy Clusters. It's more of a treat for me when I see the kids faces light up as I let them choose. Also, I just LOVE when little kids (like 2-4) wear onesie costumes. It's the most adorable thing ever. I just wanna pinch their cheeks and steal them (not actually ofc).

So yesterday, some families chose to trick or treat early due to a college football game on Halloween. A little girl in the first group of the night looked up at me (mind you, I am mid powder bake with rollers in my hair) and said in the cutest voice "you're so beautiful." I DIED. Oh my gosh, it was the sweetest thing ever. I told her she was even more beautiful and snuck her two candy bars. How could I not? She earned it. 

Another thing I love about Halloween is the opportunity to be creative (especially gay halloween, i saw someone dress up as the f**gy lamp from Glee, ifykyk). It warms my heart to see everyone be so proud of the effort they put into their costume. 

I also would like to talk about costumes I hate seeing. Not to rain on anyone's parade, but I have to voice my opinion. I absolutely HATE seeing the stupid lorax costume. It's just not funny or fun. All the sorority girls dress up as him and think it is the funniest thing ever. I don't know why it irks me so much, but it does. 

Anyways, I hope everyone has a fun Halloween. Stay safe, drink water, and don't text your ex.  

Hot take: I don't think SNL is funny.

Hi everyone!

In this post I will be stating an opinion that some people may not like. Please keep in mind that this is solely my opinion, and I am not trying to judge/shit on other people's interests.

Here it is: I don't think SNL is funny, like at all. 

Saturday Night Live has been running longer than I have been alive. I have seen countless clips and episodes, yet not once have I full on laughed. Skits can be funny, but when they do skits about niche things on the internet (like the Moo Deng thing) it just comes off as "yeah guys, i'm on the internet too." Even when it's not niche internet references, the skits just aren't funny. Like David S. Pumpkins, who is that for? 

Also, Jimmy Fallon is not a funny host. Yes he is kind and respectful to the guests but I feel like he is just constantly talking over them to add his own little quips and laughs so annoyingly. I can't stand the guy. 

On the contrary, I have seen SOME funny clips. Like Arianna as the castrated victorian singer, that got a small chuckle outta me. Or Pedro Pascal in the "He does not have ADD, he just like to jump" skit. And my all time favorite, Timmy T and Pete Davidson when they both rap, I quote that daily. 

Overall, I just don't think the skit parts are funny. I wish they would get better writers and understand that you can't just put on a funny costume and expect me to laugh.

Go watch Wildwood now.

Hi everybody! 

So, over the weekend I had the pleasure of seeing Wildwood! It was an absolutely spectacular movie in which I will be seeing again. 

The animation was filled with so much love and care that you can see it in every shot. The subject material is very mature, however that is not a bad thing. It doesn't shy away from what it is in order to appeal to more people. When I saw that head fly, my mouth was agape for a good twenty minutes. I also loved how Kurtis wasn't made as an annoying side character, instead he was given his own plot and development. It truely is a love note to art. 

But, I have an issue and it isn't with the movie itself. It's the viewers, or more so the lack of viewers. 

I am a chronically online person, if someone has an opinion, I have seen it. So imagine my surprise when the internet constantly complains about reboots, sequels, and unoriginal stories and yet they fail to go see actual original stories. Wildwood made 11 million dollars at the box office on its opening weekend, yet fucking Street Fighter made 30 million. The reason there is no originality in film anymore is because people don't show up to any good original films!!!

I just genuinely can't understand why people fail Laika time after time, even though they have proved that they make timeless movies. I can understand not being able to afford movie tickets (been there) because it costs an arm and leg to go enjoy movies these days. 

Anyways, if you want to actually show your support for art, go watch this movie. I am begging every single one of you to get your butts in the theaters and witness the pinnacle of filmmaking. If you have seen it, I am very proud of you.
