Review/Analysis of Enterprise's "The Communicator"

[(Anonymous)]

We are reminded why giving advanced technology to planets that aren't ready for it are a bad thing. It's more theoretical than actually played out on screen, but at least it's something.

What media was recommended to you, that you ended up hating?

Re: What media was recommended to you, that you ended up hating?

The Mortal Instruments. It was SOOOOO bad. I really tried because it was a favorite of a friend but I can't.

The Game of Thrones books. I've tried the books and audiobooks but I just cannot get into them.

The Walking Dead. Ugh good god. I watched six seasons of that shit because "the writing totally gets better!" Spoiler alert: it does not.

Witch Hunter Robin. I like anime but that bored the hell out of me.

iZombie. My friend insisted I would love it. It's dreadful.

Harry Potter. To be fair, my friend had grown up with them and had a lot more nostalgia for them, which probably made her as keen on them as she is, but after managing to get through all of the books, I honestly just stared at a wall for a while wondering how grown ass adults could be so into it. It wasn't... bad, I guess? Just stunningly mediocre (even for children's/young adults fare) considering the hype behind it.

My friend's still pissed off that they didn't change my life.

I think there's a large number of people who have had a friend give or recommend Ready Player One to them - "OMG you'll love this cause you're so into geeky stuff!" - and then hated it. I'm still avoiding the topic with a couple friends who loved it.

Infamous, I love superheroes so my bf recommended it to me thinking that I'd really enjoy it, I did not.

The gameplay and powers were really fun and nicely designed, but I could not for the life of me stand any of the main characters(Cole was so fucking boring, his bff was an irritating shit-head and his gf was... I can barely remember her tbh but I know I didn't like her either), the only character I even vaguely enjoyed was the first villain you kill. I very quickly stopped playing the game after that.

I was recommended The Host (the South Korean monster movie) by a friend, and also by the internet (reviews of it are overwhelmingly positive), and I ended up hating it. Like, I can't even start on what didn't work for me. Nothing. The answer is nothing. Nothing about it worked for me. Everything was bad.

Basically, I think maybe I just loathe that particular director's style/vision/narrative sensibilities, because I also hated Okja, which was directed by him as well.

Postmodern Jukebox. I really dislike their twee take on popular songs that don't even use the best parts. No harmonica in Timber? Where's Thrift Shop's bass line?

Plus, they strike me as... smug? Like, when Weird Al covers a song, I get the feeling he respects the original artist, not so much with Postmodern Jukebox.

Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I do not care for them.

The Shannarra books. I like fantasy. I like high fantasy. But these books just did nothing for me.

What media did you think you'd hate that you ended up loving?

Kind of based on #3

Are there fandom people you've wondered/worried about? Or aren't worried about per se, but you noticed they disappeared randomly?

(Bonus points if anyone reunites here...)

makeup question

[ketita]

I have this foundation that I got (Clio's Kill Cover), and it's a pretty great foundation, but the tint is slightly yellower than I'm used to. I think in part it's because I usually use BB Cream as foundation, so I'm nudging my skin to the paler end, and bringing out the pinks in it. This foundation is a bit darker, and has yellow tints (Admittedly, my skin has yellow tones).
It could be that the reason the color bothers me is because I'm just used to the pinker tones. Does anybody here have any suggestions about what I can do to either pinken it a little bit (I'm a bit worried about just putting blush everywhere), or to help my eyes adjust to the new tone and figure out if it's really an issue or "just me"?

What are your favorite sick foods?
