Sex & Shenanigans


Ok the real world makes me sad … so here’s some interesting questions for you all again today..



Get to Know You Round 3:


1. If you could forget and then re-read or re-watch a show or movie to experience it again for the first time … which would it be and why?
The west wing. Or Yes Minister.

Perfection.
2. If you could have sex in any public place and not get caught or have any repercussions, would you do it and where would it be?
I don't have anywhere really.
3. Do you wish you could change just ONE thing about your physical body… if so, what part would you change and why?
No. I wish I could change a few things.
But I can't, so. I'm good.
4. If you could know the truth about one thing in history, what would it be and why?
Alien sightings.
5. What animal best represents your personality?
Luna wolf.
 
1. If you could forget and then re-read or re-watch a show or movie to experience it again for the first time … which would it be and why
Saving Private Ryan. Such a good movie.
2. If you could have sex in any public place and not get caught or have any repercussions, would you do it and where would it be?
Yep, its on my bucket list. Not sure where, just the riskiness sounds fun.

3. Do you wish you could change just ONE thing about your physical body… if so, what part would you change and why?
Just slim down on my front end a bit. I've dropped alot, but still have some slight man boobs/gut/fupa.

4. If you could know the truth about one thing in history, what would it be and why?
What the hell are UFOs?

5. What animal best represents your personality?
Probably a bear. Which also fits my appearance, being large and bearded.

But hibernation sounds pretty great.
 
I hate that empty feeling after a good show or book …. It’s the worst!!
I’m opening up and letting my inner child and nerd out here.
I’ve been a fantasy/fiction fan since I understood what it was, including comic book characters and epics like Lord of the Rings. I read LotR once a year, I read Stephen King’s “It” once a year, I’ve been reading R.A. Salvatore’s work, and his longest running series, for over 20 years.
I was hooked on Marvel with Iron Man, and the trilogy of X-Men movies before that. I’ve been a Star Wars fan since before I could read.

What does it for me are great characters. If a book or a show or a movie shows me a character fully fleshed out and gives me a strong sense of place, that’s a good start.
Then, if the story lets me suspend my disbelief and go on this journey of adventure and discovery with these characters, to have it pull me down through the hole between the words or be lost in the story unfolding on the screen and be truly invested in them and their relationships…that’s my happy place.
There’s been characters in novels and films I’ve genuinely wept over because of how their stories resonated with me.

Now (if you’re still with me), the show that’s hit the hardest for me in recent memory is Daredevil. It originated on Netflix in 2015. The tone. the music. The brutality, and the hope.
The characters, especially the villain, absolutely captivate me. And they ended it prematurely, and I went through almost a breakup period where I mourned those characters and their unfinished stories.

And, eight years later, it’s coming back. Same tone, same music, and the same cast.
That’s almost unheard of for a TV show, and I’m so damned excited!

*steps down off pedestal*
 
What's worse for me is watching the later seasons, after it should have ended, and they are just limping along, and you can see it, but I still keep going. I think, "maybe it will end okay!" and it doesn't. Some shows can change direction and it is wonderful (The Good Place pulled that off in spades, as their core value, I think), but most...cannot.

I am looking at you right now, Castle. And the Anita Blake books. I stay in relationships longer than I should, and that includes media.

I totally understand everything you wrote here and I 💯 agree with you.

It’s also why I am always so hesitant to start a new series until I feel like they’ve committed to a lot of seasons.
