My dissertation of 2021. Hello 2022
4 years ago
General
Welp, another year has come and gone. And how did I feel about 2021 as a whole... JUST AS SUCKY AS 2020! Boy, historians ain't gonna look down on the 2020s with any kinda fondness at this rate.
Let’s get the crap out of the way. This year didn’t suck for me on a personal level, but for the rest of America… I think we all know which particular day in January at the start of 2021. And I think I’m more afraid of domestic terrorists now. I’m no fan of Democrats, but boy howdy Republicans and Conservatives this year have proven to be the biggest collection of cultist crybaby dipshits I’ve ever seen. Anti-maskers and Anti-vaxxers have proven over and over and over and over again they can never be trusted to do the right thing, and have become the very definition of assholes and complete scum. Welcome to America, Delta and Omicron Variants!!!
I have an ever-growing ‘Shit List’, and at the top is one Marjorie Taylor Greene. Oh boy, this absolutely evil bitch is so colossally stupid, she makes the dumbest of blondes seem like Einstein. And right on the last day of this year she suggests that we should separate the country's red and blue states. *facepalms* Do I even have to explain why that will NEVER work? Who'm I kidding, she'll just call me a 'communist' for my rebuttal.
What did suck for me personally this year was in September, when I learnt the existence of yellow watermelon. And I don’t know if that was that specifically, but an allergic reaction made my uvula swell up. And I did all kinds of in home treatments, including gargling salt water. But thanks to the swollen uvula, I accidentally swallowed it, and a few hours later, it made me throw up. First time throwing up since I was 11, making me have a full blown panic attack, thinking I had to go to the hospital. Yeah, I tend not to think rationally when angry, or panicking like that. But once I cooled down and took some Benadryl (which I shoulda done in the first place) I was fine the next day.
I had an epiphany throughout all this December that... I hate Christmas decorating. I despise it. This year's Christmas lights gave me so much trouble that everything kept blowing out. So much so that some outlets blew out. So next year I'm do a systemic top to bottom new thing for Christmas. Not inflatables, but if anybody knows any kinda battery-operated decorations, lemme know, I'll be taking notes and planning for next Christmas. ^^
But the biggest thing that disappointed me this year, was what it took to finally get Zack Snyder’s Justice League movie out. I haven’t seen the movie yet… AND I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO WATCH IT! Because I refuse to reward or acknowledge anything achieved by bad behavior. And that’s exactly what these ‘fans’ did; death threats. The Snyder Cut was just a toxic conspiracy theory that’s somehow been triumphantly reframed as a glorious myth. But hey, Zach, you were able to finally do it for your daughter, and I respect you for that. But that’s where my respect ends, because you reminded me why I dislike you as a person. You have that exact mindset as your fanbase; DC movies are for grownups.
So thanks, Warner Bros, you negotiated with terrorists, and who knows what other extreme crap these nutso fanboys will do in the future, and it’ll all be on you.
I’ve witnessed apex stupidity of the Christian fundamentalist group that is ‘Little Light Studios’ and how they cannot research their crap about anime.
Celebs that were lost this year that I love: Larry King, Cloris Leachman, Christopher Plummer, Yaphet Kotto (you probably remember him as Parker from 'Alien'), Willie Garson from Stargate SG1, Jack Angel (G1 Transformer voice actor), Chris Ayres (voice of Freiza), Derrick J Wyatt (an awesome Transformers character designer)
I’m fully vaccinated. And thanks to that, I was finally able to visit my Grandma and the rest of my family up north in Yuba City near Sac, and that really made her week, as well as my coming up there this year at Christmastime. ^^
One of my good friends for to come with me and my family to Las Vegas this summer, and I got to bowl in a sweet arcade at a mall there. Michael Jackson show in Vegas is awesome BTW!
I found through Harry Potter quiz that I’m a Hufflepuff. Gonna be doing a Harry Potter movie marathon at the start of the new year ^^
I had my first movie experience in 17 months since this friggin’ pandemic started back in March, and the first movie I saw right when I landed in Yuba City was that new 'Spirit' movie, and I thought it was fun ^^
Awesome movies I’ve seen: Black Widow, Shang-Chi, Venom: Let There Be Carnage, Eternals, Luca, Encanto, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, A Quiet Place 2, Fast and Furious 9, Godzilla vs. Kong, Space Jam 2, Free Guy, and Bill and Ted: Face the Music.
Awesome movies I’ve seen in 2021 on Netflix: Red Notice, Princess Swap 3, and The Mitchells vs. The Machines.
Awesome shows I’ve seen in 2021 on Netflix: Masters of the Universe: Revelations, the reboot of He-Man: Masters of the Universe, Cowboy Bebop (Despite and regardless all the grumblings of these shows)
Awesome shows I’ve seen in 2021 on Disney+: WandaVision, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, Hawkeye, Monsters At Work.
Awesome Anime I’ve seen in 2021: Eden’s Zero, Dragon Maid Season 2, Shin Evangelion.
Worst Netflix shows I've seen in 2021: Transformers War for Cyberton Trilogy - my Primus, I've never been more bored watching anything Transformers. Last chapter, Kingdom, wasn't too bad, only cuz the Maximals were in it, and they proved to be better characters than Prime and his Autobots. Middle chapter, Earthrise, oh boy, I actually yelled at the TV to get to the point.
The other was 'Tollhunter: Rise of the Titans' - That.... ending.... it undoes the efforts of those three awesome shows leading up to the movie.
Achievements:
I made my whole new FA account ‘CWS’, and loving every second of it. ^^
I finally got off my butt to watch Stargate: SG1 season 1 for the first time in almost 24 years, and finally bought all the DVDs to see it in its entirety. Movies included. Don’t ask me about Stargate: Atlantis. Haven’t watched it yet. I am thinking about it though. That’s why I mentioned Willie Garson, who played the funny/awesome character Martin Lloyd in several episodes of SG1. I quickly became a fan of ‘Bob’s Burgers’, thanks to an episode I related to so hard, and bought all the seasons on DVD. Can’t wait for more ^^.
My brother gave us Paramount+ this Thanksgiving and I'm watching some of my old favorite Nick cartoons of the 90s. ^^
I finally bought the whole thing of ‘The Real Ghostbusters’ on DVD, and I love it.
And just today, my mom took me to an awesome restaurant, Lazy Dog. And I've been wanting to go to it for over 2 years, maybe more, since she and my dad kept talking about it so much. I enjoyed it so much, I brought home one of their burgers to enjoy tonight for New Year's Eve. ^^
Movies I’m looking forward to in 2022: Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness, Seeing Red, Lightyear, Thor: Love and Thunder, The Batman, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (Cuz, man, losing Chadwick… I’m curious on what they’ll do for this.), Black Adam (The Rock looks gnarly here), Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse Part One, John Wick 4, The Bad Guys, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Bob’s Burgers Movie, Mission Impossible 7 (cuz my gal Hailey Atwell be in it! ^^), Creed 3.
Movies that I’m on the fence about but will still give a looksee: The Flash movie (cuz we haven’t had ENOUGH Batman – though Keaton Batman appearing is the plus), Morbius, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (because of Amber Heard), Jurassic World Dominion (last movie’s ending was whew), Top Gun: Maverick (FINALLY!), Fantastic Beasts 3 (last one… wasn’t too good to me, but this looks fun ^^)
Shows I’m looking forward to in 2022 on Disney+: She-Hulk, Moon Knight, Ms. Marvel, Sneakerella (Always love a Cinderella story ^^)
I ain't gonna jinx anything and say, 'maybe next year will be better than the last', but I am looking forward to some groovy stuff for 2022 movie-wise as mentioned above. I'm really looking forward to all the new Transformer toys coming in 2022. I'm really excited to see the Haslab Victory Saber, since I became a backer of that awesome character. ^^
But more importantly, I look forward to doing and sharing more and more art to my most excellent friends here on FA. ^^
Till next time, y'all have a safe and Happy New Years, everybody. See y'all in 2022.
Thanks for your time. ^^
