Marvelous, Marvelous
A young chemist presents an extremely rare concoction.
Code is everywhere. The astounding height of it amazed crowds. The purity of it astounded scientists. The largest crack rock, measuring six feet in diameter and standing over seven feet tall took the breath away from spectators.
It was a fourteen-year-old chemist who had just obtained a doctorate from New Sweden University. He had spent years on the giant cocaine rock.
“I love it. It’s a metaphor for what this country did during the eighties and plays into today.”
One thing that stood out was the fact he concocted no humongous crack pipe for someone to smoke it. Too much.

Smartystan
Breath issued from Angelica’s mouth. The weight of the baby put her into her chair. Her curves managed to say she had not been with child the whole time. There seemed to be a fantastic ideal swimming somewhere in her mind about the hazards of caring for two. She grabbed a magazine and fanned herself, knowing that she expended more energy in that effort sitting still and letting the air conditioning do the job. No, she told herself, without struggle there is no triumph. She switched on the television set. The picture looked as people had been replaced by blue aliens and she just watched her soap opera, void of extraterrestrials for this time.

The Smoking Girl
Part 1 My intentions have always been good. Suddenly something happened that made me start doing things I wouldn’t ever do. Like, I took up smoking again after ten years. This is awful. Why do I do this shit? I know it’s no good for me. I take a long drag off my cigarette. I am so pissed. Smoking helps; I guess. I have put with this for far too long. The cool Fall air feels good as I take another hit. I glance over at the empty bottle of wine leaning against my denim-covered thigh.

10 Times Rotten Tomatoes and I Disagreed
***Disclaimer*** I will be ranking these movies in the following manner: The greater the divide between Rotten Tomatoes and I, the higher up on the list (and I am referring to the critic's score, not the audience score). I will also show Rotten Tomatoes' score on each one in addition to my score. I am curious to know what everyone thinks, please let me know in the comments below!
