Nedavno sam pročitao jednu objavu na Redditu u kojoj jedan korisnik spominje kako se balkanski mentalitet razlikuje od drugih po tome što olako omalovažavamo i spuštamo druge, pogotovo one koji imaju ili žele postići uspjeh.

Media consumption in May 2024

Here's the very late list of some of the media I consumed in May 2024. Mostly, it's films, books, articles, and videos.

  • Bros., Lecce: We Eat at The Worst Michelin Starred Restaurant, Ever. Eating at a Michelin-star restauraint doesn't gurantee you a great meal.
  • You'll Never Find Me. A very decent psychological horror. 7/10.
  • Insidious: The Red Door. Barely decent horror. Previous works in the series are much better. 4/10
  • The Mothman Prophecies. Rewatched this oldie, and I think I liked it more when I was younger. 5/10.
