(I hadn’t planned for the super spreading factor of this event, boosted by employees unable to put their mask on their nose making a 100 kids or so wait in the hall for half an hour)
The play’d better be good
*TEACHERS ARE HEROES*
My god it was atrocious
This is one of the worst thing I've seen -ever
The actors & FX girl were OK -but if they had anything to do with the script they are guilty as sin
It was
It starts with two school bullies sending their teacher/head of school to an asylum because they wouldn't stop asking "why" every 5 seconds (they *were* annoying)
Teacher ends up in a sandpit mooing while eating sand.
It's very funny for the bullies.
Then arrives the new head of school: A troll.
He eats a child emboldened by the bullies to attempt to bully the troll with "whys". Kudos on the crushing bone sound effects, quite realistic.
Then school is turned into a gold mine so the troll can have a statue.
The troll warns the kids being nasty will be punished. The evil twins -the 2 heroes- can't let that stop them being bullies
So they put an earthworm in a kid's sandwich
So the troll eat *that* kid
The twin feel bad but not too much as the kid didn't like them (go figure out why)
Then the heroes put a slug in a girl's hair. The girl gets eaten too. Does it stop the heroes? No. Then they put mud (I think?) in a teacher's shoes. So because all these things are privileges than only the troll can enjoy, he eats the teacher as well (more bone crushing sounds!)
Note that in between condemning to death their classmates and teacher, the twins try to warn their mum, the school inspector, the police, the president.. No one believes them.
So the boy twin learns troll language
As trolls don't exist but troll language books do
Because why not
Then the boy talks to the troll
He explains putting earthworms in people's sandwiches and slugs in their hair is kid's nature. The troll explains eating kids is his nature. He goes to eat them, but realises he admires them instead & then the twin bullies get a giant gold statue🤷♀️
I mean I'm still
When we left, the half-masked theatre employees, very sorry we couldn't stay to chat with the psycho company as they were half an hour late, kindly offered that we come back tomorrow and pay to see the whole thing *again*
Gee thanks 😬

I mean I already have the focus ability of a drunk C. elegans today
(Fun fact: The Caenorhabditis elegans is a 1 mm long nematode that has the smallest brain of all animals)
(And no I'm not drunk, but there's good chances I'm in for round II of Covid -being drunk is more fun)
That does not impair my ability to lose time on this website but definitively stall my translation ability
I mean it's the simplest text in the world and I'm like: "What are words"
Been there -as the victim and mother of the victim
It’s just so mean to talk about nasty things making everyone uncomfortable
Why would you want to ruin everyone’s life mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/m…
Not all my family reacted like that fortunately -but most couldn’t forgive speaking up.
They were more comfortable with pretending nothing happened or show forgiveness to the one who did awful things but didn’t embarrass them with it
I understand *really well* how anyone who can just wants to stay far, far away with it
I guess it's a reflex. A self-protective move
But it just adds to the trauma. The people turning their back to you. Truly to what happened to you, as it's unbearable -but, in practice -to you
Oh my
Today my 5 years old invited his (also 5 years old) girlfriend.
At one point they went silent.
Yes, that's when you want to go check.
I found them together in bed, drapes shut.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"We're making love" my 5 years old say.
😬 You're WHAT?!? 😬
I mean, he's 5.
We did NOT have this conversation yet.
He knows about daddy's seed meeting mummy's seed in mummy's belly, but the part about how the seed transfers there exactly has not been discussed yet.
Me: "What do you think that means?"
He: "It's how we'll have a baby" 🤨
Other than that, turns out he knows nothing.
His (5 years old) girlfriend was more knowledgeable:
"When you are in love, you go into the bed, you turn off the lights and then the boy puts his leg on you".
And here we went for the discussion about how kids don't grown up stuff.
