I want to know how this wiring works between father and son.
Since having “A” I have discovered that I am an absolute pawn to media over small children.
Commercials with them make me contemplate the product. Movies with them make me defensive.
And don’t get me started about Mufasa’s death scene in “Lion King”
Recently, I’ve been watching “The Guild” – this is the program that effectively inspired “Dr. Horrible” to be made.
The basic plot is a series of “Insert your favourite WoW like game” addicts trying to interact with the real world.
The irony is not without merit, but it was really hard for me to enjoy this over time due to a need for suspending not only disbelief but also resigning some core issues that have developed as a parent.
I suppose it just goes too far into the realm of “Look how disfunctional online game addiction can make you.”
To be honest I absolutely resent two of the characters, have no pity for the rest, and can not even laugh at the jokes about children. I don’t know if I can make it through more episodes after numbers 6 and 7.
Don’t get me wrong. I salute them for the work done on this guerilla project. It’s amazing and a great step for independent-made-for-internet entertainment. I’m just personally not entertained.
I used to have a very macabre sense of humour. Verging on warped, twisted, and actually broken in 3 places likely needing a permanent pin.
But each episode just makes me more an more uncomfortable.
What happened to my sense of humour?
