You can never truly beat the original.

28 Thoughts I Had While Watching the Rocky Horror Remake
The Linda

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a cult classic with generations of fans spanning the globe. So, naturally when FOX released that they would be remaking the film, a variety of reactions erupted. Some were excited to see their favorite film recreated...others, skeptical. Here is a thought by thought summary of how the remake went for my suite mates and me:

1. Is that Madonna? No? Ok.

2. Why'd they have to change the quote on the wedding car?

3. Brad totally added a "that" in front of "you beat the other girls to the bride's bouquet," don't think I didn't catch that...

4. I guess we can sprint through "Over At The Frankenstein Place."

5. Ok, Magenta's faux-English accent is rough to listen to.

6. KING CURRY HAS ARRIVED!

7. But why aren't they ACTUALLY doing the Time Warp dance???

8. LET'S GO LAVERNE HERE WE GO!!!

9. Oh no, what's on her head?

10. Well...no one could do it better than Tim Curry now, could they?

11. Does Frank-N-Furter think Brad's name is "Bread?"

12. Why is Rocky in an ice bath?

13. Someone, please fix Rocky's dark brown roots.

14. ADAM LAMBERT YASSS!!! MVP!

15. These accents are truly awful, though.

16. How is FOX going to go about these bed scenes?

17. To be honest, the original silhouette idea seems a little less raunchy.

18. How did Janet and Rocky get from the ice box, to the bed, back to the ice box?

19. They took out that pivotal shot?

20. There is no Rocky grunting in the "Janet! Dr. Scott! Janet! Brad! Rocky!" sequence...

21. Ok, the meatloaf pun was a nice touch.

22. Uh, this "Wise Up, Janet Weiss" scene got quite abusive since the '70's.

23. Aw man, what happened to the red corsets?!

24. Frank-N-Furter just got out of a pool, why does she look like Beyonce?

25. Overall, this felt like it was more about the performance rather than the message and that's quite a shame.

26. One more time for the people in the back, YOU GO KING CURRY!

28. I probably shouldn't have skipped class for this...

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
