catholicism + old school hollywood sub cult

LENT/HOLY WEEK is that time when your parents or grandparents force feed you with these looooooooong Hollywood epics...



But don't get me wrong... these movies are actually cool. For example, my favorite part in Ben Hur was the Chariot race scene. It was exciting and best of all, violent. Imagine, the participants getting trampled by Chariots and horses. Blood and Gore. Perfect for Holy Week.

What about Ten Commandments? Three things... [1] Who doesn't love BURNING BUSHES huh? [2] Before the IPAD, Moses had a tablet. Too bad it had only one app. It's called TEN COMMANDMENTS. [3] If I can only part the seas, then I could on a roadtrip to Batanes or Mindanao.

different uses of the word "EPIC"

IN MOVIES - it's usually a big budgeted thing with a cast of thousands and last more than 2 hours

IN SURFING - a big wave day [of course this is relative... what could be EPIC in La Union, Zambales or Baler is just chickenshit in Hawaii, Australia or Indonesia]

ON THE INTERNET - EPIC is usually associated with the word FAIL

IN EVERYDAY LANGUAGE - EPIC can be used to describe stuff in an exaggerated way if you're tired of using "awesome" or any similar word

For example: [1] The steak I had was EPIC [2] I just survived another EPIC drinking session [3] That was the most EPIC vacation I ever had [4] This blog is EPIC
