A while ago, I made a post asking why some people dislike this film. Out of nowhere today, I was thinking about the film, and I had a realisation that will guarantee you never look at this film the same way again (unless you already had this thought): the catalyst for Shrek signing a contract with Rumple Stiltskin was that he was so overwhelmed, under so much pressure and so frustrated that he roared. Not some simple roar either, it sent stuff skidding across the room iirc. The immediate response from almost everyone is cheering and clapping. I could understand this from the one kid who says the funny and memorable line "do the roar", but we're talking some of Shrek's friends actively celebrating... Shrek reached his breaking point and it's treated like a performance. Only Fiona bothers to make sure Shrek is ok. We're supposed to sympathise with Shrek while thinking him smashing the cake was an overreaction... no! It's not! That is a 100% legitimate response from someone who can't take the stress anymore and wasn't even taken seriously!

I might sound stupid for saying this, but trying to find out why I didn't get much EXP from this creature leads me to the exact same forum discussion: they just don't give out much EXP. This makes zero sense to me, especially since there's info saying they give out 1250 and double especially since the regular cait gives 1000. If this is the case, I don't understand but I'll have to accept it. In case of glitches, I'll list the exact steps that happened:

• I trigger an encounter in West Stoneguard Pass
• Two enemies plus a cultured cait spawn
• I surprise my foe
• I use a large wind soulstone
• It wipes out the board, dealing 27 damage to the cultured cait
• I get dominance and untouched
• EXP is less than 500

This morning, a friend of mine (male) and I (female) were heading to a Theme Park in the UK. I'm not the best navigator and my friend is visiting from France. Things had already been going a little awry trying to get to the first train station, delaying us a bit.

We get on what was supposed to be the final bus (had to transfer to a different one of the same number for unrelated reasons), and at one stop there's a bunch of shouting from a woman at the driver, my friend and I were upstairs so we didn't hear fully what was being said, but it was obvious whatever her problem was the driver couldn't do anything about.

At that point, and even now, all I know is some busses apparently skipped the stop she was at. After a few minutes, it seemed she wasn't going to go away, so already being mildly frustrated from my lack of navigational skills and not wanting to waste any more time, I went downstairs.

I said 'Excuse me, there are people with places to be', or something similar. I can't remember most of what was said to me, but the one thing I remember clearly is this:

"Mind your own fucking business!"

After she said that, she did thankfully finally leave, with me later getting a thank you from the bus driver when transferring busses and having a laugh when I compared the lady to being a Karen lol.

My friend and I went on to have an awesome day!

PS: if anyone wants to use this for a YouTube video, please do! Just please reply here with a link to the video so I can watch it!

I recently watched a video where someone compared the champions to one another to see which champion would win in a round robin. In his opinion, Urbosa came out on top, followed by Revali. After that it was Daruk, and finally Mipha. This once again got me thinking about the champions and how I feel about them. I'll talk about them in order from my favourite to least favourite:

Urbosa - She is a beast, but also funny, very perceptive, wise and understanding. When Link joins her and Zelda during a memory, with Zelda being asleep, she offers Link advice and is clearly also a friend to Zelda, while cheekily summoning lightning to wake Zelda up. She's the only one able to keep up with her blight at all, and only lost because Thunderblight Ganon is so OP. Great personality and genuinely a tough warrior.

Daruk - He's at least as friendly as Urbosa, maybe even more so, but while he understands the importance of his role and the gravity of the situation, he's kinda blasé and enjoys joking around. It is cute and funny how he's scared of dogs though, and he's genuinely very good-hearted and there for others. He lost to his blight because it was an endurance test essentially, and unlike Link who's quite nimble, resourceful and clever, Daruk only knew how to rely on his abilities as a Goron champion, against Fireblight Ganon that's not enough.

Mipha - She's very quiet and comes across as shy and reserved, a gentle soul who frankly was too passive in nature to be named champion, but she definitely did her best to support her friends and especially her love, Link. She was a caring older sister to Sidon and if nothing else, understood the importance of her role. She lost to her blight due to a combination of reasons, but her biggest drawback in my opinion would have been her passive nature, when you're not naturally a fighter you're kind of at a disadvantage against anyone you fight. It certainly wasn't helped by Waterblight Ganon having a longer reach weapon and control over water and ice.

Revali - He's arrogant, cocky, rude and passive-aggressive. He resents Link and believes himself superior to him. I know a lot of people like him, but I can't like arrogant assholes without a shred of dignity or charm. The one thing I can say about him is he's clearly skilled as a warrior. The main thing that baffles me is how he lost to his divine beast, Windblight Ganon is an absolute joke! People have theories, but they all centre around his biology of being a Rito rather than his skills and personality as a champion! Unlike the other three who lost due to having their abilities countered, Revali literally lost because he's a Rito! And on top of this, even in death, even after Link defeats the blight, Revali just can't swallow his pride and admit Link is better!
