Car Problems Fucking Suck!

 I never know what to expect with cars.

Specifically, my 2006 Hyundai Elantra was falling apart at the seems.

Then it got broken into .They fucked up the ignition cylinder. The assholes. I hope they burn in hell. Or at least burn somewhere where there is not a fire extinguisher. Seriously, you fuckers don't deserve much.

Breaking into people's cars is some absolute bullshit. And I hope the long dick of the law gets you!


So on to the new /used car.

I have a new used 2016 car now. Nissan Versa by way of my cousin which is fine. And then it began.

Here I though the car troubles were done but I was so mistaken. So mistaken to the point where the serpentine belt had cuts in it on an oil change, you shitting me. The car is new used. Then you hear the brakes, and they were shot in the front. So now I go from a car that was working to two gigantic repairs.

And the worst...the car the other day just stops working. The battery and dash lights were on. What the hell? I was trying to go visit my best friend Alex, and the car just dies in a neighborhood .  So I get him on the phone and tell him I bought coolant. Maybe the coolant was low. Try to accelerate and it won't even register!

What in the fuck is the issue.


So a tow today and a nightmare begins. I am really hoping it is minor. I really pray it is minor. I had a littany of problems with the 2006 Hyundai Elantra. It was creeping to 170,000 miles. So yeah it was dying but this Nissan has been work for no reason. What did the previous owners do? What did my cousin actually do car maintenance wise or her ex wife? It has been stressful and exhausting.

I was wrong so wrong : Attack on Titan Season 4 SPOILERS AHEAD

 SPOILERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!


Attack on Titan season 4 has shown us some sheer brutality. Dafuq, is with all the murderin'?

It also showed war with battleships. And then I got confused.

Yes, so anyway Attack on Titan season 4 or AOT , phew that may be better to actually say it that way; has turned dark. It was already dark. But when I started watching the fucking show I was like okay this world is bleak, the world is dark, this is a void, this be a WDW. (Walking Dead World) 

And it is!

It so is.

But the story is going into some bat shit territory. Genocide? The idea of the Marleys and Eldians warring against each other for all glory. For one to survive? Nutters. We thought the Titans were the central focus. But the Japanese to me have an obsession with the Nazis. Fucking most of the goddamn character's names are German. Not to say that is bad. Eren is my favorite character. But this Eren Jaegar is something more akin to a murdering savage now. And the scout squad has seen so much fucking blood . They flat out really do not care. Mikasa cares about Eren like she did from the beginning. But she now sees this reflection of Eren that is a shadow of his former self. He is not necessarily evil, he has seen atrocities but now he has the founding titan in his hands. And also when the Titans broke from the fucking walls it was really cool to see animated.

Devastation.

Mikasa is wifu. She stays by Eren. She is compassionate. She is loved and revered. She is a survivor. Do I ship them. You bet. But that doesn't matter . I hope she survives. Anyway, I titled that Devastation because Levi dies in the most awful way. I was devastated. A new character Gabi entered the fold. And she was straight mercin' Eldians. And I wanted to know why. I found out why lol. I still do not like this little shit. She has grown on me a little bit. 

Is it so bad to want the Eldians to win? Is it so bad to want Eren to win?

No.

Even if Eren is ultimately wanting to wipe the world out. We saw him grow from the 1st to the 3rd season. Are the other titans neat? Sure. But they are not Eren. And are we even sure Eren is good or bad? 

Who knows. 

I am team Eren. :)

Penguin Drum finale

 SPOILERS


Hard to put into words how much I love characters. From Bleach to One Piece animes can move you.

Penguin Drum was one such an anime that moved me.

I did not cry. But I was just confused by  how the show wanted to end. It blew me away Shou and Kanba basically not existing or being a memory was shattering. Their not real sister Himari basically on her death bed throughout the whole damn show, survives from sacrifiice. And also Ringo switching her fate with Shou and Kanba.

But the best scene to me was the ripped bear that Kanba and Shou stitched back up because they ruined it. Himari looks at it and starts weeping because inside the bear is a note.

You see in this world. Shou and Kanba exist but they are not brothers with Himari. Incredibly sad. But the only redemptive thing is that Ringo in this world , is good friends with Himari. This anime took me on a crazy fucking ride.

As the whole premise is Himari is going to die. And the brothers have to find a way to save her. And when the Penguindrum is revealed it is really neat. So much of the anime is tied into Fate / Punishment. It was sensational the symbolism in it.

And yes I needed to further understand by looking at how others interpreted the ending. I was confused. But once reading what they wrote it started making sense. Shou and Kanba are amazing characters. I wish even in the flashbacks we find more about Momoka. Momoka you see was Ringo's sister who died. She was killed because of Kanba and Shou's father. Where there is a syndicate element to it makes it even more intriguing. Plus Kanba killed I dunno how many goddamn people .But he dies but in a peaceful way. ANd then Shou dies switiching fates with Ringo and assuming the scorpion fire.

I also loved the Idols. Though, they could have been fleshed out more.

Goddamn it I want season 2. But I doubt we get it. Oh well, what a crazy interesting anime from start to finish. Brilliant!
