Excuse Me, What?

I write things and no one reads them. So far, so good.

Raison D'Etre

Raison d'etre is French for "reason for being," and this part of the website is the reason for this website existing. Now that I've thoroughly overexplained this shit to you, go for the gold and don't read any of it.

Welp, I finally saw Deathly Hallows Part II, or Harry Potter and HOLY SHIT SNAPE WAS ALMOST MY FATHER PART 2

I have precisely mixed feelings about this. The movie geek in me was spazzing over the effects and aesthetics and other filmy shit that was awesome. As a movie, I loved it. As a canonical part of the Harry Potter saga and as an adaption, I wanted to shoot myself in the damn face. Because fuck paragraphs right now, here's a bullet list of opinions straight up Bible facts, son:

  • That awkward moment when Harry is more concerned with a two-timing goblin'...

Hurr Durr, Another Pointless Update

Posted by Amanda Storey on December 18, 2010 at 12:32 PM Comments comments (0)

So I'm not really sure what I'm doing with this website anymore. At first it was just me archiving my not-shitty Facebook notes, but since I've been lacking new material and enduring the Writer's Block from Hell, I have no idea. I have a separate blog for movie reviews, so I haven't been doing as many in-depth ones on here. I have to finish one for Paranormal Activity and Paranormal Activity 2 and I may do one for Harry Potter 7 Part 1, but since I actually enjoyed it very much and it was exc...

The YouTube Chronicles: Part II

Posted by Amanda Storey on October 8, 2010 at 2:10 PM Comments comments (0)

Read Part I here.


I love and hate it in equal measure. The general reasons are obvious and are more likely than not the same as everyone else.


I'm subbed to some funny people: Shane Dawson, Ryan Higa, Philip DeFranco, KassemG, etc. But I refuse to be associated with their other fans purely because they are SO. FUCKING. STUPID....

I'm Not Dead (Not That Anyone Cares)

Posted by Amanda Storey on September 12, 2010 at 7:14 PM Comments comments (1)

I don't mean that in a thoroughly pessimistic way, but in a nobody-but-some-Christian-Louboutin-spambot-is-commenting-on-my-posts kind of way.


Anyway, I just wanted to update the approximately 0 people that follow this site as of now. I'm a super-freshman in college, which means I'm a second year student with not enough credits to be a sophomore. It sucks, but I'm doing what I can to remedy the situation. Last year sucked. This year doesn't. Dream big.

Evolution is Bullfeces

Posted by Amanda Storey on February 10, 2010 at 12:00 AM Comments comments (2)

Rather than piss and moan outright about going stir crazy during Snowmageddon 2010, I've disguised it as a way to disprove Charles Darwin's theory (but not of natural selection. I will support that until the day I die...or the day I spawn something greater or equal to the sum of its parts, namely me and whomever is lucky enough to eventually spawn with me). So here it is: why evolution is a lie, along with the cake.


I am not a big fan of the great outdoors (Mar-Lu-Ridge...

The Internet Chain Letter: A Scathing and Objective Commentary

Posted by Amanda Storey on October 10, 2009 at 2:55 AM Comments comments (0)

I hate chain letters. I get a little excited every time I see "New Messages!" on MySpace, but it always turns out to be some new band whoring themselves out to every 14-25 year old on MySpace, or one of these bullshit letters. So here's the OLDEST ONE EVER apparently, but with new and improved commentary.

Harry Potter and the Half-Hearted Failmovie

Posted by Amanda Storey on September 29, 2009 at 10:46 PM Comments comments (4)

So, I didn't go to the midnight premiere; instead, I went to the twenty-till-11 PM premiere the day after. I'm really glad I didn't go to the premiere because I would have been all hyped up and if I was irate last night afterward, I would have been suicidal. Oh, wait.

 

Honest to God, I wish I could get my/Becky's money back, but since I've been thoroughly blacklisted as a general annoyance (my in-theater commentary this time included references to masturbat...

The Best $25 I've Ever Spent

Posted by Amanda Storey on September 20, 2009 at 11:34 PM Comments comments (0)

AAAHHHHHLASDGHASDKHAROHWPRHIJGDS I LOVE MY LIFE.

 

Last night was THE BEST EVER. I now know why people go to concerts all the time, because they're so much fricken fun. It's the only way to beat people up legally while hearing your favorite music played LIVE. I mean, what else is there??

 

After Midnight Project was up first, but I though they were Halestorm until Halestorm actually came on. FAIL. The name was even on their drumset, and I still didn't see it....

Sendler's List

Since Ben Thompson, author and webmaster of Badass of the Week is a corporate slave, so I decided to help him out and write an article about one of the most amazing women ever, Irena Sendler.
