When I was seven, an 80s movie aired on TV, and I watched it until my mom turned it off at bedtime. I cried, wanting to see the rest, but she refused, and I eventually fell asleep. The next day, I couldn’t remember the movie’s name, so I never finished it—until today. It aired again, and the experience was surreal; I remembered every detail and finally saw the ending.

I was seeing the movie Rocky Balboa in theaters as a kid and during the final fight scene between Rocky and Antonio Tarvar's character, when Rocky starts making a miraculous comeback and the crowd around me was hooting and hollering, I heard the woman sitting directly behind me yell, "Yes Rocky! Kill that (n-word)!" But, you know, uncensored, hard R. I don't remember a single other thing that happened in the movie and I still can't fully believe it even really happened because no one else said anything to her????

I was 3 or 4, and hooooo boooy, let me tell you how significant this moment was for me. Thomas gets pushed onto an abandoned ferry by those good-for-nothing Troublesome Trucks and sinks into a marsh. I positively lost my shit. I vividly remember rushing into the dining room where my mom was chatting with her friend, and I would not let them continue talking until they came in and watched it again. I'm sure I wore that part of the tape out replaying it over and over and over again. Looking back now, I think it radicalized me.

It's a big NO from me for Espresso and Please Please Please , they were the Dance Monkey of 2024. I swear, I get so uncomfortable whenever either of those songs comes on.

It's not just because they'll eventually come for you too - they will but because being around them will mess with your head. You'll start overthinking everything you do, scared that everyone's judging you just as hard. And honestly? Life's too short to live like you're on trial all the time.
