they need to stop making electric cars so damn ugly oh my godddd
so far the ones I have seen have been either mediocre or abhorrent. There’s so much potential you could make them space age you could bring back beloved styles you could. Urghhh.
Look at the difference. What did they dooo god. Where’s the whimsy where’s the joy. I feel like I have already seen around ten other cars that look like the new VW bus and that isn’t a good thing
I’ve always loved the old VW bus and this feels like an insult. It’s not even that bad it’s just. Disappointing. Lackluster. It should have been so much better. The interior is nice? Where’s the cute round headlights where’s the triangle where’s the rounded box shape where’s the whimsyyyy
it doesn’t look like a minibus it looks like an overpriced suv it looks like an upper middle class white soccer mom car I’m in tears.
this isn’t a revival this is defamation
there’s no separation between the windows they smoothened it another victim of corporate minimalism. 40 years for this
It kills me that AI generated texts use em dashes and “If not x, but y” statements. Because I used to do that!! Before chatgpt and COVID-19 was around (tbf I was a kid). I don’t use those types of statements as much anymore but man do I love contrasting examples. You could use the “xy” statements for emphasis or as an emotional beat, but now I want to cringe whenever I see so much of it.
And the em dashes… I do a lot of tangents—apt for my blog name ‘cause I ramble. You could use anything for side topics such as commas, semi-colons, parentheses, or brackets [if you’re feeling frisky]. But em dashes evidently separate your tangents where it’s clearly a segue from your main topic. Em dashes are my beloved. I swear to the heavens above if I see one more “em dash = AI” argument from a professor or anybody really.
I will stare deep into their retinas until lasers shoot from my eyes. They can pry my punctuations from my cold dead hands.
Here is a little something I wrote a couple days ago and decided to post (finally!)
Have you ever gotten so pissed off at your soap of choice because there was just something about it that irritated you to no end? Ever gotten to the point where you couldn't watch anymore based on the fact that your brain was about to melt because of pure stupidity of the storyline that's just boring and drawn out to the point where you just don't give a shit anymore? There is one of these stories in every one of my shows, Corrie with Nick and Leanne (and Kylie thinking she's batshit insane because her son is) I still don't understand how David can put up with any of them. Todd and his never ending mission of fooking shit up...but if you think that Corrie's the cream of the story plot time fails....you'd be very very wrong.
Let's start with the neverending plots that are on Hollyoaks right now that are actually finally (in one case) kind of coming to a close. You have the whole Maxine/Patrick thing which I don't even understand why it's still a thing. The only reason these two started was because she fell in love with him while he was trying to teach her how to read...she confessed blah blah blah blah. Then the beatings happened and she got pregnant and basially told her that it was her own fault that the baby that down syndrome? Then after she finally said something AT THEIR WEDDING there was no major shock? Why you ask? BECAUSE IT STARTED A YEAR AGO AND NOBODY GIVES A FLYING FOOK ANYMORE! I felt the same thing about the JP storyline too, if it wasn't for a select group of people's performances (Namely my little Robbie Roscoe (yeah I'm biased....everyone in this storyline had their moments but Robbie confessing that he knew about it just UGH) Hollyoaks is just one giant mess and a half. #FIRETHEWARDROBEANDHAIRSTAFF!
My two big beefs over at Eastenders Ian 'the blubbering whale who is literally about to lose everything' Beale who turns non-whiners into whimpering pussies (Mick Carter) and whiners into kind of tolerable characters (Namely Denise!) And what's this shit about Breaking up with Lola beause you want LAUREN? That's just like all kinds of ew, I don't approve of making Lola cry I think she's an adorable girl if someone (like a professional hair artist (LIKE HERSELF)) would do something cute to her hair that isn't a ponytail on the side of her head! My second huge beef is the fact that the Carter family's falling apart, and it's not going to be made any easier with some of the shit that's coming up...I just can't believe they are wasting such a good character like this just because the Carter family is in a turmoil-ish state. It pisses me off.
I only have one big problem with Emmerdale....and his name is Adam fooking Barton. Yes James is your father GET THE HELL OVER IT!!!! You can't hate the world forever or people are going to end up throwing you off a cliff into a moving train! Wouldn't be the first time that happened in Emmerdale, also Charity and Declan can be moved in front of that train too and I wouldn't be sad if Megan and Cain did it just for a good effect! I just need to see Cain smile again and I think that this would do just that! I'll probably have more for Emmerdale as I rewatch July/August stuff, but I'm not a fan of ranting on this show on purpose (unless it's for the benefits of arranged marriages with your brother's enemy, or the dreaded Adam of overdue teenaged angst, I mean, he's acting like the kids on Corrie, little shitheads who can't control themselves.)
I would go into a bit more detail but as it's going on four in the am as I am finishing this bit alone, I don't think I want to rant in detail, look out for my rantery/mad love blogs every so often! (I'm in the process of writing a little bit of a 'one storyline I love on Corrie' right now sort of thing....NOTEBOOKING IS NOT CALLED FOR GAIL!) So look out for that. Thanks for reading and until next time when a rant is called for, you'll know that I'll be about to give it!
