Fantastic Mr Fox
This is NOT a rage against Fantastic Mr Fox, this is a rage against everyone who refuses to see it, or didn’t like it, because of the use of stop-motion animation. I’ve had three people, most young, use that as an excuse now, saying ‘preschoolers could do better’. Um, no, they couldn’t. God, you’re so spoiled these days with your polished animations. I’m not necessarily knocking the new technologies in animation, I’m just saying have some appreciation for its history and how far it’s come. Personally, I think the story line for FMF fits stop-motion animation perfectly, there’s a certain quirkiness about the film that could have been lost through CGI. What really annoys me too is that they seem to think that it’s rough around the edges by accident? No, it’s called an aesthetic losers. There’s no camera shake, that’s technique, everything that looks rough is done on purpose. They COULD have made it with CGI or they could have made a more polished stop-motion (think Wallace and Gromit) but there’s something so delightfully kitsch about the film’s aesthetic that would have been lost if they’d done it any other way. People took the time to hand craft that movie, so stop being so ignorant and open your minds a little.

Why do people feel the need to occupy the stall next to you in public bathrooms when there are usually like eight others free? If they want to hear me urinate that bad I’ll just knock em up an mp3 next time.

No Justin Bieber, no, no I will not love you. I just can’t. When I see pictures of you or hear your songs alarms go off in my head, “DOES NOT COMPUTE, DOES NOT COMPUTE.” I legit thought you were twelve years old Justin Bieber, and I could almost deal with that. Like, “aww but he’s just a kid, let him have a go!” But.. you’re sixteen. You.. you don’t sound sixteen sweetie… Or look it. I mean… I think, I think you need some help… some like.. Growth hormones.. Or.. Corrective surgery… Or.. Something.. (also you’d think with all that money you’d be able to afford a decent haircut, I’M JUST SAYING).

In case you can’t deduce from the past few fyfo posts, I WORK IN RETAIL. So prepare over the coming days for an onslaught of ‘things I hate about retail’ posts. To get the posts a’rollin (yes tumblr I know that isn’t a word, I just made it up, now away with your red squiggly lines!) I’ll begin with this: PUT THINGS BACK WHERE THEY CAME FROM! Displays can take up a lot of time, we don’t all get drunk on tequila and play pin the shoe on the store front! Well.. Not regularly.

Mosquitoes are the most unnecessary insects on the face of the planet.- Frogs can just eat flies, fussy bitches.

People who come into stores at 5:25 PM have clearly never worked in retail.

Everyone makes a huge big deal about the ‘their, they’re, there’ thing, but I think there’s one worse… Loose and lose. You know that sound Sideshow Bob makes when he steps on a rake? EVERY TIME.

The followers of this blog are so loyal, I love it… but because this is a blog about ranting I’m going to have a say about everyone who doesn’t follow this blog. One word: douchebangers.
