Dismemberberries

Yesterday, I watched the MMPR: Once And Always special on Netflix and in a few moments, I'm going to be taking in the final drop of sour mead, otherwise known as Star Trek: Picard. For what it's worth, yes, I'll be writing on both pieces, though you'll have to wait a while before those get posted.

There's a term that the kids like to toss around the interwebs - memberberries. This has origins in the South Park show, referring to a fruit that, when consumed, will evoke feelings of nostalgia, remembering things from happier, more innocent times. This is apparently the slang used for any show that uses nostalgia and whathaveyou to prop up its worth.

It's safe to say that there's going to be a healthy helping of that... but I can't help but feel that what's actually being served is a bowl of dismemberberries. You eat the thing, you're minded of nostalgic things that made you happy, and then you wonder how long it'll be before it gets FUBARed.

Anyway, we'll see if that happens to be the case.
