So I want to talk about two things today, The finale of The Legend of Korra and Miracle Berries. I don't have a lot to say on either front, but together they could make a full post, so lets do this.
If you have not seen Korra, Spoilers be ahead. Also, watch it, its great.
Korra ended this last week and the finale was great. It had everything. Giant robot fights, badass bending fights, giant badger-mole musicals and two great couples finally getting together for reals. Varrick and Zhu Li do the thing, and Korra and Asami get together at the very end. Good stuff. People still got up in arms about it, but that's OK, because they are wrong, and we don't have to listen to them. Its nice to see a romance that was sort of there be confirmed to be 100% true. I say sort of, because it was obvious by the fourth season that Korrasami was a thing but I didn't know if Nickelodeon would have the guts to green-light something that would have made an unfortunately large amount of people upset. But hey, they did, so good on them. It was a beautiful scene that showed genuine love between two people, and I am sure that we can all agree that this is good thing, and if not, fuck you trollpants.
The Second thing I wanted to talk about was Miracle Berries. Eshi got some in the mail from the Cards Against Humanity people's annual Holiday gift package. For the past couple of years you can have given them like $10 and they send you a bunch of random stuff and holiday themed cards. This year one of the gifts was a package of pills made from the Miracle Berry. So you take the pill, and mull it around in your mouth for a few minutes, coating your tounge, and when it is dissolved you eat limes or some other similarly sour/bitter food. We ended up trying some stuff we had around the house like limes, lemons, dark chocolate, orange juice and coffee. Its fucking awesome. These aptly named berries made limes and lemons taste like candy. Seriously, candy. I legitimately thought that lemons are too sweet. Of the stuff we tried, Limes were the best. Its amazing, I would suggest that people try them out at least once just for the experience.
