THEME 2 - THE WORST MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN AND WHY

Like the last post, the beginning of this post is going off on a little tangent.. I'm currently sat in the porch of a cottage, in the middle of nowhere, stealing the pub next door's wifi.. 

We set off at 1am this morning and went to the ferry terminal in Liverpool where we had to wait about an hour and a bit.. This would have been fine, I mean, we had music, food, drinks.. But of course I was the one who had the bladder of a 3 year old at the time and I really needed a wee.. NO TOILETS TO BE SEEN! So I spent most of the time waiting to get on the ferry dancing in the back seat of the car..

As soon as we got on the boat, we got our cabin keys and went straight to bed.. It was cold, loud and /SO/ uncomfortable. I slept maybe an hour in full over the 6 hour sail.. When we woke up, my dad went to get breakfast while me and my mum got ready and by that time we were nearly in Dublin Port. When we finally got to the port, the boat was already 15 minutes late.. To add to that, we had to wait another 45 minutes waiting for someone to open the door to let us back to the cars. So we were all pretty p*ssed about that. When we finally got off of the boat we had a 4-5 hour car journey ahead of us and my god.. The only reason I'm sane at the moment is because I was listening to music.. 

We finally got to our destination at around 4:25pm and the first thing we did after putting the bags in was go to the pub and say hi to everyone we know here.. Me and my mum went a different pub after a while and we had Chicken Curry Half and Half (chips and rice) and went back to the pub where my dad was. At the moment, my parents are now sleeping while I'm writing this post, sitting in the conservatory of a little cottage, stealing somebody else's Wi-Fi.. Muahahahaha!

ANYWAY - ON TO THE THEME!

The second themed post will be about the worst movie I've ever seen and why.. Now I think this one is quite difficult because I don't think I've ever seen a movie which I've literally hated.. 

My mum hates The Matrix because she somehow doesn't understand the story..

My brother hates The Hunger Games (the b*stard) just because I love it..

I don't think my dad hates any films really..

But for me, I think I'd have to go for Team America.. You know the puppet one? I have nothing against puppets, I used to love watching Captain Scarlet and the Thunderbirds puppet version but something about Team America seriously grinds my gears. Maybe its the fact that my brother finds it hilarious how the producers have tried to make the puppets have sex and I'll just be sitting there like, "What the actual f*ck!?" It doesn't even have a storyline! Thunderbirds, they're a family who save the world.. Captain Scarlet's storyline I can't remember for the life of me, but Team America? No. So yeah, I think its safe to say that Team America is the worst movie I've ever seen..

Anyone agree with me? Anybody disagree with me? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic and your reasons for them!

FACT FRIDAY #2

It's Friday again and I've never been happier about it being a Friday in my life. Anyway, like I said last Thursday or Friday, every Friday was now going to be Fact Friday! (Stupid, I know right) But I was reading something before I started this blog and it said something about having a sort of schedule when it comes to blogs and vlogs. Something like Throwback Thursday on twitter, and this was the first thing I could think of. Anyway, the fact I found for today was;

"Dr. Seuss coined the word nerd in his 1950 book 'If I Ran The Zoo'" 

I found this interesting because a few of the older authors, like Shakespeare, JRR Tolkien and now Dr. Seuss have all created words or other materials for their books. Dr. Seuss shocked me though because for Shakespeare and Tolkien, it is more understandable for them to make up words. I mean, Tolkien wrote about elves, dwarves, dragons etc all while he was fighting in the war. 

Because I know Dr. Seuss as a child's writer (The Cat in The Hat, The Lorax, etc) making up words would be slightly pointless as children don't really understand many words to begin with, never mind made up ones. 

Another reason this interested me was because I honestly class myself as a nerd or a dork or something because of how many slightly weird and childish things I like, such as Marvel, Pokemon and computers. To find out that a word I describe myself as was made up by one of the most creative men of all time in my opinion just makes me like the word even more. It's brilliant!
