Mini Frustrations #5 Wannabe Song

 

Wannabe

This song really annoys me. It hurts my ears. The sentiments are shallow and untrue. Love can last years, while friendships come and go very quickly, and a lot more easily. Yes, I understand that in some ways you could say I’m missing the point, but on the other, it comes across as nonsensical, shallow drivel. The sort of thing passive aggressive girls might say to each other when they are pretending to be friends with one another.

A Moany Introduction

 Like many British people I spend much of my time complaining. It can be anything. Waiting in a queue, the fact of the queue exists, the shower water running out, or burning the toast yet again. Don't worry though, most of the time you won't be hearing about how you always get one tiny stain of tomato sauce on you every time you eat it, or stuff like that. While I will talk about a few more real-life things, here I will prioritising posts about movies, series, and books. Am I the only one finding the Blogger settings hard to find? Took me half an hour to delete an ancient blog I found on here when I arrived. I keep having to go on Google and type in Blogger settings to get anywhere! Might just be me. Took me forever to set up my Wix website when it was only a few clicks in reality! I swear Wix is some sort of cleaning product.  Oh, well. Place your bets now as to how wrong I am going to get the labels. I seem to have a curse when it comes to social media! And what does permali...

I loved Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle, and then suddenly I didn’t

This movie has brilliant world building, an extremely involving beginning, and feels as deep and mysterious as the jungle itself. I was really excited. I was going so well for quite a while in and then suddenly it changed. It started with the hunter, or, maybe it started before but I didn’t notice. He was white. This struck me as odd to begin with. While I have only read the first book once, I have picked various things up from online videos, and have seen illustrations. The hunter is meant to be Indian, and the chief hunter in that village. And when you think about it, what’s this white guy doing in India in the middle of nowhere anyway. Okay, if you think about it deeply you could probably work out an explanation, he’s a trophy hunter, yadda yadda yadda. But even so, it doesn’t feel right. But what really doesn’t feel right is that no-one ever race-bends a coloured character into a white character. And they changed his name too. Something was up. After a while, I understood. Th...

Lissea Complains About The Warriors Series (Largely The Broken Code) *Spoilers*

I was, or is it am into, I'm not sure, but never mind. Warriors. Great. Until recently. Or not so recently. But if you're reading, chances are you know stuff already because you know, spoilers in the title.  Warriors turned into a mess, and seems set on challenging itself to become a much worse mess at the moment. Gone on to long, completely different writers from when started? Possibly a partial explanation. But here's some stuff I got frustrated while reading it.  Warriors takes place in Britain. There are no turtles in Britain. No cat would know what a turtle was, therefore Turtletail’s name is actually impossible. Tortoisetail, maybe, but not Turtletail. British people also always call tortoises tortoises, never turtles, so there’s no get out there either. Pretty sure no character has ever used the word turtle either, but if they had, that would be a mistake as well. There are also no chipmunks in Britain, yet one is mentioned in one of the books. As far as my reading g...
