Couldn't Make it Through

I write a lot about TV and movies.  I don't make it through some of them. Usually due to the contempt I already had for it or I am just not part of that particular status quo. Here is a short list that I have compiled including why I believe I can't get through them.

Salem - I think the reason I can't get through this is because I would rather watch a documentary on the subject matter. The melodrama was a little too much even with the cutie Shane West trying his best.

American Horror Story: Asylum - I have given this a try twice.  Once when it was on FX and again on Netflix.  The only reason I got through the first season is because I could binge it. I was not into it.  I love the actors but everything else was eh.

Star Trek - I know that as a huge fan of Next Gen and Voyager that saying I can't watch the original series or Deep Space Nine is near sacrilege.  I haven't even tried to watch Enterprise. I also watched but never stop making fun of the original 4 movies.

The Dead Zone (Series) - I made it through four seasons before I couldn't take the sub plots and I stopped watching it.  I did really like the first few seasons both it got really out there.

Borat - I tried watching this twice. The first time I made it twenty minutes in and the second time I made it to halfway through.  I have a very low tolerance for what I call dumb comedy and this is one of the dumbest things I have ever seen.  It was so bad I never watch his other movies or series.

Gender Roles Can Suck It - Part two

I never know how to describe myself to people.  I didn't get it until I realized how much I was bullied.  I think that is where a lot of my problems came from.  I never felt I fit. And goodness I tried to be them or what they wanted me to be.  I was slapped, gum was put in my hair, my bra strap was snapped, I had panic attacks and no one noticed they just thought I was emotional.  I was then teased for my bladder control, weight, crying, and I liked hanging out with boys more than girls.  I tried to hang out with other girls. I liked to try gymnastics moves and for a second thought about trying out for the cheerleaders in Catholic school; until I was told by a girl who would definitely get a spot that the uniform wouldn't fit me.  I eventually just figured out that any chick worth hanging out with is worth dealing with their entourage. I did eventually make a few female friends that I am still in contact with.(1) I did find a very best friend that I will have for the rest of my life when I was 16.(2)

(2) I fought hard for that title. (best friend)
