So, I wasted about 2 hours of my night watching the weirdest movie ever. It is called "Bugs"; it has one of my favorite actors in it Ashley Judd. Also, Conick Jr is in it.*looking mighty buffed and hot I might add* Yummy..

Anyhow, I will go ahead and give a brief summary cuz personally; I don't think I would be ruining anything for you.


First, we are all used to Ashley Judd being all hot and skinny, well she wasn't in this movie. She was overweight *for her* I would say a size 12 or so and sorta a white trashy women, who was physically abused by her ex "Conick Jr". She works at a lesbian bar as a server in the middle of some BFE state, I would say NE or KS but I don't know if we even have places like that. Maybe so. *shrugs*

Any who one of her server friends come over to "party" and brings a man with her she found at a bar. He is definitely "weird", but this Ashley Judd character "Agnus" (Who really names their kids Agnus anyhow? I mean do parents not care they are causing their children grief with such names.) Agnus is "Lonely" *rolls eyes*, what do people do when they get lonely? Ya, they take in the first person who gives them attention, even if they are "weird" which this person most definitely was.


Long movie short, the guy "Peter" is some escaped Army crazy lunatic person with schizophrenia and delusions, he thinks they have "bugs", Aphids to be exact. After months and months they both have tin foiled her apartment, they have sores all over their bodies, they are cutting out "egg sacs" from Peter's body. Peter is obviously messed up. Agnus is believing it too and is scratching and seeing bugs. At the end, she has the mother bug, he has the drone *insert eye roll* and they set themselves on fire cuz the CIA and Army people are coming to get them.

Therefore, after watching the entire train wreck hoping for some realism to be shown and none was; I got to thinking *Scary I know* there was probably a principle story here as I refuse to believe such good actors would be in a stupid movie.


Have you ever fallen victim of the Power of suggestion? I mean, Hell I was scratching while watching it and I am pretty dang sure I don't have any "aphids" in my house. They did a good job rationalizing with each other, making the story believable. I don't believe I have been affected by people with power of suggestion, maybe manipulation at times, but what makes something "real" and what makes something "not"?


Does it even matter if anyone else will believe you? As long as you believe whatever it is, you are selling. That is what a salesperson does, an entrepreneur. They might know their product isn't going to do what they say, but it's their job to make us believe it will! If not, there would be no info-commercials on at 1am in the morning telling us how to "get rich quick" now would there?

Anyway, I thought the whole principle of the story was interesting if you read between the lines.
