No one EVER told me life was gonna be this way...

          I feel like this sort of thing happens every year you know. For some reason, there is a collective movement that rises up and makes their voices heard to the rest of the world. They tirelessly share their opinions through any outlet available to them, and make the post of their positions in the professional world to try and convert as many as possible. Like pests, they do this for a few weeks before retreating to their hole, readying themselves for the next year's debacle.
          I am of course talking about people that despise Friends and believe to be unfunny and complete garbage. This is usually started by some journalist or blogger (lmao who even blogs any more am I right???) who is looking to make a splash. And when that article gains any sort of traction, they all come out of the woods and try to stand out in this world. "I'm not like other people. Ha! I'm different and therefore better than you".
          I know that this isn't what most people actually say, but it is essentially what they're saying. We get it. Friends was and is a very popular sitcom and widely regarded as one of the funniest shows ever. But. because not liking popular and mainstream things is somehow a personality trait, we have the issue at hand.
          I understand if you don't think Friends was the funniest show ever. Comedy does not have a singular approach, and different people have different things funny. No complaints from me there. But you really can't go ahead and make the claim that it was one of the worst shows ever. The jokes were both funny and memorable. If you were looking for a life lesson or a social justice campaign inside the show then you are in fact an absolute fool. Friends was and is a sitcom meant for easygoing enjoyment. The characters have flaws and they aren't meant to solve them or learn from their goofy adventures: because that is how life works.
          As far as the jokes and bits on the show go, they were funny! I don't know how you can make the argument that they never were. Obviously comedy is subjective to a person's own personal experience and humor, but to simply declare 10 seasons of a show as not funny? You are in fact wrong.

Spiderman 4: Into the Metaverse

 At first, I thought I was going to write about Facebook doing a complete rebrand as a company and their transformation into "Meta". On Oct 28th, CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that the company Facebook was more than just the platform Facebook and that the company name no longer encapsulated everything the company was trying to do. And just as  Google in 2015 had a restructure into parent company Alphabet, Facebook (the company) is now Meta. But as I did more research on what that entailed, I realized it's not really Facebook (from here on out Meta by the way) that I care about. Meta is just one small piece of this mess. Because, and call me cynical, I am one of the many who believe that Mark is just trying to move past all of the large pitfalls his company has recently encountered. I mean everything from large Instagram and Facebook outages to the recent whistleblower and the "Facebook Papers" cannot be good for the company name. I mean since really the beginnin...

The NFTea on NFT Video Games

 For the sake of clarity, I will do the briefest of recaps on what an NFT is before delving into my main business for today. An NFT, or "Non-fungible token" can be thought of as a purchasable digital proof of authenticity linked to a digital work. When an NFT is minted and sold on a marketplace, it can be bought and the buyer will receive the work and the digital code to mark their ownership. The word "receive" is not literal, as there is no physical work mailed to them. This is where most people get tripped up. Yes the work is digital and anyone can simply hit right-click and download the art. But then again, I don't have to pay millions at auction to own the Mona Lisa, I can order a cheap print of Amazon. Think of the NFT as being the mark that the buyer has rights to the authentic original. Yes, there are plenty of arguments against NFTs, from their use to their adverse effects on the environment. But, I am in no mood to get to them now and lucky for me this ...

Stoner Cats: The Cash Grab We All Should Have Expected

Yeah I'm talking about NFTs and crypto again. What of it? It annoys me. Although it is partially on me, since most of research now a days is crypto related so are a lot of my advertisements and suggested content. Anyway, onto the title of this blog. I suppose that, like a lot of these NFT "projects" we should go back to the beginning. This one is a doozy. Stoner Cats is an animated series revolving around six cats and their owner. Oh, and the cats are high on marijuana. That's it, that is the show. The project is consisted of multiple episodes (three as of the time I am writing) and claims it will go on for multiple seasons. On the Stoner Cats website , they say that the project was conceived sometime before 2020 and was later picked up by Orchard Farm Productions. The actual production of each episode is being done by Ghostbot Studios. They are a San Francisco based animation house that has worked on high profile projects in the past such as "Lost Treasure Hunt...
