No More Scores

I know this might be annoying to see, but I have decided to stop adding scores to my reviews. I know, I know, I had previously made a post about the review scores and now here I am, within the same year, getting rid of it. Why? Well when I was editing my blog, removing the word “Review” from titles– I was no longer a fan, I noticed my label “Shrug it Off.” My first post was about me complaining about a chicken sandwich I ate, the catalyst to the start of this blog. The header for my blog is about shrugging it off, continuing with life, moving forward as things may not end up as planned. Hinderences may come, but you keep pushing forward. Onward.

And most of the stuff I review turn out…positive. I’m not shrugging a lot off anymore. Only some reviews have fallen into this category, like Sonic Frontiers. With my newest review of The Substance movie, I was still positive on it, but I still had issues that I had to “shrug off.”

I guess I’m still out here finding myself. I thought about making this my next “Whatever Words” topic, but I kind of like leaving that as a weekly, “what am I feeling at this moment” type thing. All my other posts could be written at any moment but then scheduled for a later date. My hoarders quote post? I originally wrote that months ago, but I had so much other stuff I wanted to put up first, I kept pushing it back week after week. Even this post itself– behind-the-scenes– I wrote at the same time as my head shaking post. Literally, back-to-back writing. But I didn’t want to post twice on the same day, I’m trying to give you guys time to catch up.

So going forward, no more review scores unless I feel like it. I’m also deleting the labels I have for them. They will probably be gone before this even posts. I may not be posting as often now since I only want to post what I feel passionate about, what really grinds my gears, or fills me with pure joy. Or maybe I will continue to put out slop to just write. I like to write. I like to type things out and put my thoughts out there for the public to see. Who cares about my opinion? Maybe someone out there does care. Do I have a fan? That would be pretty rad.

I will leave whatever scores I have in my posts themselves; I don’t feel like changing the writing that is already there. Titles don’t count, removing the “Review” looks cleaner. But if people like the scores I can continue to add them, just won’t keep labels for them. Honestly, I will probably keep adding scores for things, but randomly. If I feeeeeeel like it.
