What Grinds my Gears #4 : Background Trap Beats

  What Grinds my Gears #4

          Have you ever been watching a Youtube tutorial or videos about travelling when all of
 a sudden, a cicada like trap beat starts playing? Sometimes the beat becomes too loud. Maybe 
 it's just my generation not understanding Gen Z type of music but I remember when we didn't 
 have that kind of music. Back then most artists used to sample old music and it'd become an  
 instant hit. 
         It seems today artists have become lazy in the way they make music. Gone are the days
 when you had to be talented enough to play an instrument and if you were good, you became
 successful. Nowadays all it takes is some simple music software to rearrange beats and speed
  up or slow down the music. Then you can upload your music to apps such as Soundcloud or
  Spotify.

Restaurant Menus on QR Codes

         A few months ago, I had gone out to eat with my family, as we sat down I noticed a QR
   Code on the table. A waiter told us that they would no longer pass out menus due to COVID
   and that you would have to scan for their menu on your phone. Here's my problem: I'm sure
   a small handful of people who have outdated smartphones don't have a QR reader. 

        I understand it makes it easier for food workers to not have to clean menus everytime they
pass it out but for those who don't have new phones. But why don't they post the menu by the
door when you walk in so you can know what you want before you sit down.

        I strongly agree that pre-COVID, the menus I were handed were sticky and a bit dirty so 
 it's fitting that they would do this. Hopefully after this virus ends, some restaurants will go 
 back to regular menus so that everyone's happy.

The Tomorrow War (movie review)

 The Tomorrow War

Cast: Chris Pratt, Yvonne Strahovski, JK Simmons, Betty Gilpin

            Taking place in the near future, this action flick stars Pratt as a former Marine who gets 
   passed over for a job he wanted. He realizes he has no purpose in life until people from the 
   future show up on TV & ask citizens to come fight with them against an army of aliens that 
   has been killing people. He willingly joins and heads to the future. He ends up meeting a
   grown up version of his daughter (Strahovski), who works as a scientist trying to figure out
   how to kill the aliens with a virus.

           I really enjoyed this movie alot that has heart. The casting is excellent and features 
  a prominent male action hero something that is lacking in today's progressively woke 
  Hollywood . The special effects are top notch considering the nearly $200 million
  price tag Amazon had to pay for the rights. The father/daughter dynamic will hit you right
  in the feels. 

       Grade B+
