Bang: American Berry


 I'm not really sure why I keep trying these New Bang flavors anymore, but I couldn't help it with this one. It has the american flag on it, see?

Basically this is their old Bangster Berry flavor with a bitter taste. I liked Bangster Berry, it was a blueberry flavor but with the bitter twist in this can, it comes off as odd. 

Not their worst flavor they have out there but certainly not their best. Now that they discontinued the Sour Heads flavor, there's no longer a reason to buy these. I guess when the next new flavor comes around I won't be able to help myself, but until then, I'll stick to my Ghost.

The Invisible Man (2020) review

Wow. What a waste of a good movie. 

Good premise, really shakey arc. It's a shame because just one or two tweaks to the script would've made it perfect. Unfortunately it is a flawed film and not worth your time. 

The issues? The main villain is poorly portrayed. We hardly know him but the movie tells us over and over again that he's a bad guy. Why they couldn't have a few flashbacks to portray this I have no idea. The film tries to give you a "twist" at the end, but it's really a cluster that was poorly thought out. Again, one tweak would've fixed it instantly but in this day and age I've given up on most holloywood studios ever being good again. 

Pass.

Happy 4th!

 

Today marks the anniversary of my longest group text. Where I texted Step, Mikey and Rusty about how fireworks always remind me of the death star exploding. 

And ever since then, it's led to several enjoyable conversations. Here's to another year of the group chat!

Music facts Part 3


 And now for the last CD I ever bought. 

Yeah, wild huh?

Weexer Teal album. I didn't even realize it at the time that it would be my last. When you bought it off the site, they also provided you with the digital copy and I thought "Why am I still buying CDs?" So I decided not to buy anymore after that. 

Crazy because I it makes for a perfect ending to my physical music collection. It started and ended with Weezer.

Fitting. 

Have a good weekend folks!

Music facts Part 2


 Although I can't remember what the first album I listened to was a child (I bet it was Sesame Street Gold) I DO remember the first album I listened too after Mom and Dad bought me a Walkman for Christmas. 

Mom had just received the latest Manilow album too and it was his blues/swing album. I listened to this and walked around the block over and over again. Dancing on the sidewalk and singing at the top of my lungs probably too. 

I remember years later when my brother ran for college, he took this CD with him. I was pissed. "Why'd he take the best Barry Manilow CD?!" I thought. 

I did listen to this last year. Not bad. Good memories, yet somehow it sounded better through a Sony Walkman. 

Then again...what didn't?

Happy Birthday Jeremy!


 He goes by Remy now, but I still call his be his Christian name. 

Not really sure where he goes out to treat himself for lunch or dinner. My go-to has always been a Peanut Buster Parfait from Dairy Queen. Classic. 

He used to love Taco Bell but I think he gave it up years ago after it started giving him indigestion. 

Either way, Happy Birthday Brother!

Music facts Part 1


 First album I ever bought (on tape) was the Weezer blue album. And to this day it's STILL the first album I make sure to play in my car whenever I buy a new one. 

There's something very satisfying blarring "My Name is Jonas" out of the new car stereo. 

Oddly enough, I remember the 2nd album I ever bought too. Used to listen to the entire album on Saturday's while I cut grass for a summer job. Must have played it 10 times a day back then. To this day it remains my favorite album of his.
