What's the difference between 11 and 12? Nothing. The 11th could be a random boring workday Wednesday in September, or it could be a the best day of your life in February. As people we assign meaning to these numbers because of what happens on the day, not the numbers themselves, so I've got real trouble pretending to care about the 22nd of January when one year it was a blizzard and the another year your kid was born. Your kid's nice and all but I almost froze to death on that same date.
A lot of people hoard. Whether it's prepping or hobbies, most people have 1 or 2 things they really like and have trouble parting with. And that's fine. Every now and then you have to prune some of your collection to make room for more and that's healthy. What's not healthy is refusing to do that, so essentials start falling by the wayside and before you know it, you've got New Jersey's best indoor sewer system rotting your floorboards and there's a psychologist and your kids trying to get you to throw away things you might have some use for some day.
The new normal, hiding your mouth and nose area, aka the mask. Masks are cool though, right? Bane? Sub-zero? Jim Carrey's The Mask? Jason Vorhees and Micheal Myers? There are probably hundreds of iconic masks once you add superheroes and villains to the list. But what do we get? Some sleek future ventilated protection? No, we wound up breathing through leftover old t-shirts. What's even worse is that you haven't worn a mask since you were 8 and had a plastic Ninja Turtle face covering your own on Halloween night, and guess what? You forgot that actually wearing a mask blows.
Guess what nerds? Your cinematic masterpieces aren't any different than your childhood cartoons made to make you beg your mom for that shiny new Transmetal Fuzor. They just throw a lot more money at them these days. So if you think that Zack Snyder's Director's Cut of Justice League would've been a completely different affair and actually good. You're forgetting 2 things. One: you want a Director's Cut of a 2 hour toy commercial. And Two: Zack Snyder is why people walk around in Iron Man and Captain America t-shirts these days instead of Superman and Batman symbols. Also, i'm still upset that I never got that Transmetal Fuzor I wanted. IT'S SILVERBOLT MOM! HE'S A WOLF AND AN EAGLE! HE'S A WOLFEAGLE THAT SHOOTS MISSILES, MOM! IT'S THE COOLEST THING POSSIBLE.
