Exploring the Internet

Beware, as there’s some swearing, but here’s MovieBob’s take on the movie Pixels:

Like for reals, yo. This was my response:

To be honest, I have had zero interest in any of Adam Sandler’s movies for the last few years. He’s gotten too old to play the goofy manchild, and he even seems to be tired of the roles that he’s playing.

Which, logically speaking, would make this the perfect time in his life to reevaluate the scripts that he works on and begin producing a better product. Instead, he keeps grinding out the same overdone garbage, and even as he hates his own movies, he expects that people are going to love them.

It feels like a big F-you to his audience. There is a burningly obvious lack of respect toward the people that keep giving him their money. Seriously, yo, I’d rather spend my money on subpar weed than on another movie that’s going to leave me pissed off and frustrated as I try to slam the pneumatic door of the movie theater.

TL;DR, if I ever watch Pixels it will be on Netflix or something. I’d rather have my nostalgia ruined at home.

I’ve always wanted to make my own font, and from what my googling has taught me thus far, it seems to be pretty easy. Awesome.

I was tooling around Buzzfeed and I found several interesting articles.

“22 Easy One-Pot Meals With No Meat” – Vegetarian, not vegan. I’m most interested in the vegetarian pho and the butternut squash noodle bowl. Some of the others I would have to look over a bit more.

“Vegetarian Pho” – This recipe looks super easy. I can make this.

“10 Minute Meal: Butternut Squash Ramen Bowl With Rice Noodles, Tofu & Fresh Pea Shoots” – Just from the pics alone my gaze is drawn to this noodle bowl. The color is so vivid and it makes my stomach rumble.

I also looked at this one, because the title alone drew me in:
“Girl Scout Sells 117 Boxes of Cookies in 2 Hours After Setting Up In Front of A Marijuana Dispensary” –  Was there any doubt? Hopefully she won’t be kicked out of the scouts because of this, but what a great idea.
