  • Seriously, I’ve had it once before when I stayed at a place in New York almost 20 years back at this point.

    I was like, oh … why are these bumps and why are they in a row? so weird!

    Although, worse was when I got a bed in London UK at Swiss Cottage to just stay one night. It was like a dorm room bed. I think I estimated that I got like 200 bed bug bites in total. I had to estimate but it was crazy. What’s funny is that when you’re entire body is covered in bites, the itchiness bothers you a bit less because if it’s just one area you keep scratching it. However when it’s your whole body, you’re like … everywhere equally hurts so I don’t need to bother scratching. At least that’s what it was like for me.

    Sorry, just releasing out the trauma :P

    Now whenever I get any bites … I just freak out and wonder if it’s bed bugs. I woke up last night and noticed an itchy bump and just freaked myself out.

    I dunno, not even an old franchise but even with Avatar the Last Airbender … they keep trying to retell Aang’s story when they could do so many others stories within the universe and give nods to the original. Repeatedly doing the same storyline makes the universe feel smaller.

    update: Although … now that I think about there have been franchises that have expanded poorly … Rings of Power … Alien: Earth. Yes I know there are fans of both and I love that you guys love it. However, I don’t think either have been accepted largely by the fandom.
