Memes 101


This is a blog I've been wanting to do for a while. In my blog info it says I will post about memes, I haven't yet so here it is. A meme was a term coined by Richard Dawkins in the 80s to describe a societal or evolutionary trend or idea. Obviously this term has gained in immense popularity and practical use of the definition in the past decade or so. It really all started with a picture of a computer modeled baby that became known as dancing baby. These things started trends and memes that would gain popularity on the internet. Some of the biggest early memes were doge, rage comics, troll faces, Pepe, and lots of stock photos that would have words over them to make a meme. Everything there is very outdated now.Image result for minecraft memes

Memes 101: Explaining my blog
 Within very recent years memes went to go on to unleash the full potential of their definition. The memes became very ironic, meta, and crazy being not just the white text old myspace and facebook memes that die instantly. They got their own culture and completely separated from the normies. They now have sites dedicated to just memes like 9gag and ifunny. Then there is 4chan, we get into explaining my blog, I don't associate with 4chan but I am very aware of them. They are agroup of radical memeist terrorists that take memes up another level organizing raids on twitch streams and other random online games like the habbo hotel or runescape. They are also very much alt right, which accounts for them being right about everything. The have created a nation with the Egyptian lord, Kek and they have a leader, Big Man Tyrone.


Their mascot goes back to resurrecting a dead meme for hateful purposes, Pepe the frog. They have engaged in Meme wars that have made headlines worldwide such as the war after the Cnn blackmail incident involving Donald Trump. Hopefully this will help you to understand why I embrace my blog as a meme and the culture behind it.Image result for communism meme
 Memes are minecraft and minecraft is memes. If you don't get it get out. And also follow my blog. And what I forgot to say last timb, Stay connected.

Summer Comics Review!

Summer Comics Review!
This summer I read many comics in the form of collected graphic novels, 55 be exact. Most of these are Marvel and DC superhero books, but I've read others that aren't. Not all of these are new in fact most aren't it's just what I've read, if you have any recommendations put them in the comments. I'm only going to be discussing a few, sorted into several categories. I'm doing the oscars.Start.

Best Avengers Book
Uncanny Avengers Vol.1
By Gerry Duggan
This book forges a team of Inhumans and mutants onto the avengers, when the two sides are warring. And it shows really good how they go together and it is very funny and really lit.

Best X-Men Book
All-New X-Men Vol.1&2
By Brian Michael Bendis
It brings the original team of young X-men to the future. It does really well of establishing the X-Men team as well as basically being one of the best X-Men books ever and a must read.

Best Batman Book
Batman Vol.1 (New 52 2011) court of owls
By Scott Snyder
This is the only dc comic I've talked in this, but I read a lot of them mostly batman. I also read the new rebirth batman run thus far and it was a big contender. But the court of owls is a superb batman story that will go down as a classic in batman comics.

Best Spider-Man Book
Spider-Verse: Warzones
By Mike Costa
This is a spinoff of the spider-verse event, but it's better. It does it's good in following Peter Porker, Spider-Ham, who is awesome by the way. Give him his own series! But it actually follows some awesome other characters as well such as spider-gwen, it has the og spider but they give him just enough time to be good.

Best Independent Book
Amazing, Fantastic, Incredible
By Stan Lee
This one barely counts considering Stan Lee is basically synonymous with Marvel but it's not published by them and it's not about superheroes so it does. It's actually an autobiography in comic form of Stan Lee. It's great that really delves into the business side of what Stan did and is also funny.



Top 3.
3. Champions (2016) Vol.1
By Mark Waid
Synopsis: Champions is a revamped marvel team of younger superheroes after Civil War 2 that try to be better than the avengers.
Thots: ha lol thot gotem. But really I like this comic because it has all of my favorite new heroes that I've been reading and moves them together without the divide that was in the avengers book before this.

2. Star Wars (Marvel 2015) Vol 1&2 By Jason Aaron
Synopsis: Follows the what's popping with the og star wars crew in between episode 4 and 5.
Thoughts: This was an absolutely amazing comic. It is everything great about Star Wars put into this comic. It really is almost number one and with over fity graphic novels that lots. Just baller adventures with so much grand lore to explore deplore.

1. Ms. Marvel (2013) Vol.1-6
By G Willow Wilson
Synopsis: This is about Muslim girl, Kamala Khan in Jersey City who becomes an Inhuman and becomes Ms Marvel.
Thoughts: I thought it was absolutely wonderful. It displays the muslim culture so well and hits so many funny and great moments while it's at it. But the most important thing is while i read so many comics this one showed the most creativity and was so fresh and the best thing I read.

Knitting: A Talk

Knitting: A Talk
Now, some of you have seen a certain undankness cultivating in my posts and an unorganized place here and that may be true. So i shalt bring forth this cultured and delicate art of knitting for my next subject of which to write. Now my experiences with knitting are very interesting, such as the times in which I crafted a puppet while knitting it or when I would knit a plush. My journey into knitting started after learning about Sesame  Street, puppets in Star Wars like Yoda, and other muppets from watching their shows, documentaries, and reading about them. Which inspired me to make something like that. How was I going to do it? Knitting. Knitting is a popular hobby with Needlepoint magazine and other clubs and literature surrounding it. The community isn't just old people as some might expect, it has them but they aren't toxic and there is a community of young city slickers that make it up. Humans have the capability to knit with highly moveable fingers and eyesight, so you should all use that ability to create great knitting things to model your ideas. Knitting is a very creative sport that won't fade from the world as long as we utilize it. So keep knitting and stay connected.

Star Wars Battlefront II Inferno Squad Book Review

Star Wars Battlefront II Inferno Squad Book Review
Inferno squad by Christie Golden is a tie in prequel novel to the upcoming video game battlefront 2 of course both take place in the star wars galaxy. It follows the imperial group Inferno Squad as they infiltrate the rebel group, the dreamers. The main character is Iden Versio whose father is an imperial admiral an the person responsible for Inferno Squad. This book also has a lot of parallels with the tie in book for the first battlefront game, Twilight Company by Alexander Freed, which is about a similar group of people on the other side of the war them being with the rebel alliance. Both books wonderfully model the Battlefront games through how they show just a team of people that are just a small part of the war but have big stories. What I liked about the book was how well it conveyed the characters and showed what was going on in the story. It was a really well written aspect in which you would be following one character and due to all the characters being in the same place for most of the book you would casually get caught up on their story as well. This made it easy for the book to avoid having unnecessary side stories which is a big problem with lots of star wars books. There were some other problems with this one though as in some actual spelling and grammar errors which made me lol and reminded me of my own blogg. At only 307 pages it comes in as the shortest canon star wars novel, which would be fine expect for that there is a big part of the book which is referenced, I just wish that we could have seen that part in the story. This book really succeeds in having great Imperial main characters that are relatable even though a lot of the time you know they are being bad. Overall this was i great novel that ties into Star Wars perfectly and makes me super excited for Battlefront 2. I would rate it a 9.5/10. Stay connected!

A Series of Unfortunate Events GBA Game Review

A Series of Unfortunate Events GBA Review

A series of unfortunate events (asoue) on the game boy advance (gba) is a game based off of the movie of the same name. It's a movie adaptation game so I wasn't expecting much, but I've read the books the movies based on, theres also a tv show now so a thought it's a good time to play and review it. The game follows 3 kids and the same plot as the movie. You can switch through the kids at any time in the game, but you can't stay as one character because to progress you have to use each characters individual abilities. Which is where what I liked about the game pops in. I did quite enjoy that each of the kids had different aspects to the character and is a big part of the franchise as a whole.
Screen to select characters, Klaus, Sunny, or Violet

One of the best ones is a mode where you can design inventions and actually use them in the game. The music is pretty fire, it isn't DJ Khaled but it fits what the game is going for with the eeriness and all, so it's good. But where the game falls apart is the fact that the whole gameplay is a platformer that really just ends up being a fetch quest with some neat mechanics put within.
So in the end I would recommend Asoue for the gba if you are a fan of the movie, books or tv series, but if not it's definitely not the best game ever. I would rate it a 6.5/10. I'm coming for your souls you trolls! Stay connected. Bye
