Social media

Reading through social media is very dull at the moment. 
If you are reading this article in the distant future relative to me, I would say that social media is like a never ending page that you scroll through by swiping your finger upwards across your screen. The never ending page is full of pictures, videos and text that people share. The main social media pages are Facebook and Twitter at the moment. 

People are sharing their joy of Donald Trump losing the general election, that is fine but it just gets boring after a while. I don't want to see 300 memes of trump losing. It is so repetitive and dull. There are other amazing things in this world to share, like this blog or Mysteries and unusual facts.

Superman Hadouken

In the Movie Superman 2, I remember a scene where Superman was confronted by his 3 enemies in his base.

One of them flies towards him, then Superman throws his logo and it turns into a sheet of polyurethane and wraps around the villain and throws him to the ground and then disappears. I got the impression Superman is into Spiderman movies :-p. I always wondered what Superman's weapon was.

Later in life I got an answer, not sure if it is the correct one though. In the computer game street fighter, some of the fighters announce they are going to make a Hadouken and move their hands so fast that the air around their hands turns to a ball of plasma and shoots out at their rival. I'm sure that every guy that was a kid in the nineties tried to make their own Hadouken with their hands, it never ends well especially if your parents have a lot of fragile things sitting around.  Anyway, a Hadouken is a wave of energy given off by mythical fighter's fast moving hands. I wondered if Superman's polyurethane logo thing was a Hadouken.

My point is wouldn't it be nice if a media creation was accompanied by an explanation by the creator, like a back story. Every movie should back story to explain the story in more depth.

The mystery of life, the unsolved, the never ending quest.
