Insanitarium

It occurred to me that the movie Groundhog Day is seriously screwed up with the way it treats women (granted, it’s an old-ish movie so that could be why, I suppose…)

The protagonist is stuck in an endless loop and to escape it, he must bed this woman.

The woman isn’t even allowed to have a will of her own, to decide for herself if she wants this man or not, she absolutely has to get with him if the day is to stop looping continuously. Well, she does fall for him, but the fact the plot requires her to for it to be resolved  really irks me.

Instead of being treated like a human being who can do what the hell she wants, she’s an obstacle for the protagonist to overcome so that he can escape a bad situation.

Ugh. What a shitty plot.


GS fact

Little known Golden Sun fact:

You know the sweatdrop emoticon that, as far as most people know, was first used in Golden Sun: The Lost Age, and not the game before it?

It WAS used in the first game, but only in Japanese.

Localization team must have had anime dubbers on board or something. “OMG, too Japanese! Erase it!”

And then they got to the second game.

“OMG, too Japanese-“

“We have a clearly Japanese town with Japanese people and a subplot based off a Japanese folktale here.”

“Never mind.”


o-o

And another search term someone used to find the site

“sissels toes cut off”

NO. DON’T CUT OFF HIS TOES. D= THAT’S PAINFUL.


Hahaha what

I was looking in the site stats for Temsik Park, and I saw this as one of the search terms with which people reached the site:

“a couple move into a new house which has a secret room behind the bookcase the wife chains her husband to the bed in the secret room and when he escapes he chains her up and then dies of a car crash after the house is inspected a detective finds the wife chained and releases her she then chains up the detective”

haha, wtf.

Did someone really type all that into a search engine?

And they found my site that way?

LOL.


Having “mywritingspot.com” go to your blog instead of the actual site (which is “www.mywritingspot.com”) is really annoying.

I don’t even bother putting in the “www” in urls anymore.
