It's a decent thriller blown out of proportion partially because of its accessibility as a Netflix film, partially due to all the advertising Netflix poured into it, and partially because Netflix probably created bots to make and spam birdbox memes on Twitter.

Essentially, the core conceit of the movie is that if you look at the monsters you commit sudoku, so characters blindfold themselves to do basic things outside. The Birdbox challenge is that, but in real life. Why? People are stupid and attention hungry.

I am currently in recovery from surgery which has so far included my incision opening up leaving a giant gaping wound in my stomach and having tubes stitched in. Sooooooo good luck.

Blank firing exercises are always a good roar, especially if you get to do trench clearing with grenades and bayonets. At night it’s utter chaos though; flares going up and sergeants being even more shouty than normal.

Having said that they’re only fun if you’re just doing a firing exercise. Not so fun when it’s part of a longer weekend in the field; sleeping outside, damp kit, cold rations et cetera.

Not even a fan of Black-ish tbh, Anthony Anderson peaked a good 10 years ago imo. That and I was busy showering rather than watching TV, and normally we have TV Land or TBS on at this time, normally it's Everybody Loves Raymond or The Big Bang Theory.

There once was a union maid, she never was afraid
Of goons and ginks and company finks and the deputy sheriffs who made the raid.
She went to the union hall when a meeting it was called,
And when the Legion boys come 'round
She always stood her ground.
