Reviews
Last Update: 21 Apr 2025
I have set out to review everything that has been significant to my limited experience here on earth. After years of frustration with five-star or four-star systems, I have developed a flexible system that allows me to quickly rank my experiences. I now choose which items belong in the top 25%, 10%, or best 1% of its type. The more I've experienced, the more I can promote to the high echelons of the form.
I digress! In case there's a fire during tonight's performance, the exits are to the Far Left, and please remember - there is no smoking allowed in the theatre. Enjoy the show!
I have reviewed: 10 Books, 3 Live Performances, 227 Movies, 49 Music Projects, 38 Podcasts, 13 RPG Products, 10 Software Programs, 68 Tabletop Games, 78 Television Programs, 55 Theme Park Attractions, and 169 Video Games.
