Alright, confess odd things.

For example, I'm jealous to my big brother becuase he discovered The Smiths first. Dammit, now I can't have a crush for Morrisey without feeling weird about it.

It kinda bugs me that the Avengers really have nothing to do with avenging. Like, "revenge is bad" is kinda one of one of the core good guy tropes, and they are (basically) good guys. Really, they're more law enforcement than seekers or vengeance.

I've read the original Avengers comic, and apparently they chose that name simply because they liked the way it sounded.

It's just a silly name Marvel came up with, it's not supposed to make sense.

but...but words! You can't just pretend a word's definition doesn't exist! That's absurd! And so are comics! So I guess then it works in that context!

Everything has a reasonably simple explanation.

The fact that only 140 characters are allowed here is honestly so disappointing to me.

Okay, what about the existence of people who think The Secret is a legitimately deep concept that isn't a distortion of facts and bullshit theorizing?

Well, technically (At least in the movie) they do avenge Coulson, but he got better.

Which totally defeats the whole reason that movie was awesome, but whatever.

I can think of seventy-nine other reasons that movie was awesome just off the top of my head.

I can think on at least three within a second and a few more if I think for a little while longer... And I don't even like it that much.

I sometimes wonder what it's like to learn about American history from the perspective of another country/culture.

I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.

Every time I watch a fight scene in an action movie, my first thought is "we already know who's gonna win; can we stop dicking around and deliver the final blow already?"

I'm Colombian and can hardly speak Spanish.

I have bitten my foreskin once.

I used to be that bug and grass eating kid, got a friend of mines in in it too. She gave up shortly.

I really don't like cats.

I mean, you can say the same about most songs: we already know what the final chord is gonna be, so why not just play it now? It's not the destination that matters, but the journey.

(And I would argue that a good movie has it so that you legitimately don't know who'll win. Think of how The Empire Strikes Back ends.)

I think I've said this before but I'm really bad at listening to albums in order all the way through.

My attention span just sort of dies and it becomes background music and I force myself to get through it
