That late at night it’s past time to set aside the booze & keyboard and hit the hay instead.

Before I left the shipping center, Big Company had switched to these boxes that were bright colors and Minions all over the damn things. Several different designs. It was hard enough spotting the labels, reading them, and doing the appropriate thing in basically a second with plain tan boxes; with these things it was damn near impossible. They slowed me down and made my eyes and head hurt.

So I guess what I’m saying is that I pretty much agree with you.

Every time one of my friends posts (shares) a Minions post on Facebook, I find the page that originally posted the picture, and block the page. It’s worked pretty well for me, as I hardly see many Minions posts anymore.

I need to do this. My nephew seems to be obsessed with them.

Most people who’ve seen the movie are saying it’s terrible, too.

I think the minions are hilarious, but don’t think I could take a whole feature-length movie of them.
