We know what a blooper is. A blooper is a mistake in the filming. It can range from the actor flubbing his lines to props going wrong. “Easter bananas” was coined by WEnchanteur because of my obsession with bananas in Episode 2. The original term is “Easter egg” which means an object or image that […]

I’m not a literature major but who cares? 🤷♀️ It’s my blog and I want to talk about a concept often used in literary circles: liminal space. I’ll do my best to explain it as I understand it. It’ll easy for you to grasp. The word “liminal” may look highfalutin, but you’ve seen its cousin […]

Sisyphus: Ep 6 The Man on the Tracks
August 6, 2001. The time traveler who was found on the tracks is NOT Taesul. The director was trolling us. The man is… this mystery guy who drew the cat. That right ear (see pic 1) and those fingers (see pic 3) don’t match Taesul’s. Plus it doesn’t make sense. Taesul would have remembered the […]
