Mongrels and MW3

Proof, if proof were needed, that I will never fully fit in around these parts.

And this grey clingy rainy autumnal crap weather is hardly helping my apathy either.

I promise I will be more positive soon, try and get the bouncy happy me back. There was some of that at FE this weekend but mentally I am finding things tough right now. Wolfie says I dwell on the negatives too much - he may be right. But when you are hurting, this is what you are wont to do. Psychology sucks. Being a depressive sucks more.

I know I have nothing to feel down about but rationality often struggles in the emotional realm. My moods have always been erratic and this is just another manifestation. I wish it wasn't like this but it is. I will just have to try and dig myself out of it.

Wow, I am not alone in thinking that Mongrels was vastly overrated. I saw the first series, and thought it was just full of dated unfunny jokes and lame attempts to ape family guy shamelessly. I had better things to do last night like writing, checking hens or packing for my trip to the middle east.

Ooh where are you going in the Middle East? And is it for vacation of business?

I agree completely with you on Mongrels. It seems to be a poor man's Family Guy. My main issue though is the characterisation - I detest most of the characters.

Egypt for a short holiday, been rather baited about it though due to the situation both there and with their neighbour Libya. However from what I've heard it should be OK in Harghada where I will be staying, as most of the trouble currently is in Cairo. If we have internets there I will tweet about it, but I can't guarantee that I will.

Oh and yeah hated the characters as well. Most did work, or where just dumb or bland, or indeed just repulsive (the swearing character). The only one I liked was the pigeon that was trying each week to stamp out the human race, which would have been cool in a "Pinky and the Brain" way, but you know even a kids show from over 10 years ago way still felt better than Mongrels any day of the week.

I hope you enjoy Egypt, I have always wanted to go but the areas I want to see are plagued by political unrest at the moment.

The problem I have with Mongrels is that I absolutely detest Destiny. I wouldn't generally watch a programme which had a character who was that obnoxious so I don't see why I should make an exception here. In fact, I don't think I actually like any of the characters. The metrosexual fox is okay in an inoffensive way but the others I find just awful.
