Honestly for some reason Chucky legit terrified me into my teens. I only watched the movie once as a kid but the fear was still there. When I reached adulthood and met my boyfriend (who is obsessed with horror) made me rewatch it and it was so stupid I was legit angry at how much it tormented me as a kid. I still get Read more

I really don’t understand the “blow shit up in the street” variety, but I like the pretty ones that look like fountains and don’t sound like much of anything except running water. Read more

Back? He never went away. There was literally a new Chucky movie last year on Netflix.

The Chucky movies are still going. The writer of all of the movies has directed the last two, which were excellent for what the are. The most recent film ended on a cliff hanger, and I’d like to see where that goes rather than get a reboot.  Read more

As someone who professionally set of fireworks from 2007-2016. I 100% agree with this article. They are expensive and they generate tons of trash.  Municipalities should not buy fireworks shows. Read more

We grew up with my dad, a Vietnam Vet, not being able to abide any kind of loud noises, crowds or startles. Know how kids jump out at their parents and go boo?! Yeah, he’d yell “incoming!!” every time. Poor Dad. What a mental scar.

I like watching our town’s firework show, but fuck the assholes who have been randomly setting off really loud fireworks at all hours of the night for the last couple of months. Illegal fireworks are dangerous, but if you want to blow your hand off I don’t really give a shit. What bothers me is that it wakes me up and Read more

A friend’s 12 year old dog already ran away last night because of fireworks. They haven’t found him yet. :( Read more

Beyonce really saved Jay Z there. Why is he always so awkward and weird? Read more

As soon as you are out of the womb, the United States does not appear to give two shits about you or your wellbeing. It must be a truly brutal place to raise children or suffer misfortune/poverty Read more

I do not understand why Drake is so popular. His voice sounds gorgeous in the studio but he doesn’t do anything original, EVERYTHING is sent to him and he just mimics what he hears on the demos he's given. Theres a reason Drake rarely does live tv performances! Read more
