Origin Story : Captain America

OK, I know that a lot of people now know the story of Captain America thanks to the MCU movies starring Chris Evans, which I adore, but his birthday is coming up soon, so I felt an origin story was in order.

So Captain America was born on 4th July 1920 as Steven Grant Rogers. Steve was an ordinary kid throughout his childhood, in the Brooklyn streets he lived in with his family. The only problem for Steve is that he was seen by other kids his age as a weedy, scrawny, girly (because of his blonde hair and blue eyes) weirdo, meaning he was bullied and beaten up a lot.

When Steve had reached 20, not much had changed. Steve was still small, still scrawny, but he knew something in his mind. Steve wanted to be a soldier in the army. War had broken out across the world for a second time, and Steve wanted to help. Why? Because all his life, he had to put up with bullies, and he saw Germany as a bully and wanted to do something about it, but there was one big problem for him. In order to join the army, you had to be seen as medically and psychically strong, and Steve was neither, what with his astmha and weakness. The list was incredibly long, so Steve got turned down. So he tried again in another state - and failed again, so he tried - and failed - again. Infact, this happened several times over, and the worst part for him was that his best friend, James Buchanan Barnes, known to others as Bucky, managed to get into the army, and would normally walk around in public in uniform, whereas Steve was still nowhere near that stage.

One day, though, Steve got his big break. While out with Bucky, he saw an army recruitment tent, and so abandoned his best friend in hopes of making it into the Army.

As the medical test went on, Steve's hopes worsened, but luckily for him, a doctor from Germany by the name of Dr. Erskine was in charge of his evaluation, and saw that Rogers may be a good candidate for an experiment for the army, and so, regardless of all his problems, Steve Rogers was now a soldier.

As expected for him, the army was incredibly tough. All the recruits had to go through vigorous training that was tough even for the strongest and hardest of men, so poor Steve was truly struggling with everything, but he showed courage and determination. While out on a training run, the soldiers were told to stop at a flag pole and told the one who can reach the flag gets a ride back to camp, while the others had to run. Steve's fellow recruits either tried to jump for the flag or shimmy up the pole, but they all failed. Then Steve had a go. Instead of doing the same as the other soilders, Steve loosened the bolts of the flag pole so it fell to the ground, and then picked up the pole. Dr. Erskine heard about it, and was impressed. Steve was showing intelligence.

Back at the camp, everyone was doing routine exercises, when Erskine tried to test Steve again. He took a dummy grenade, yelled "Grenade!" And threw it in his direction. All the other soldiers around him scattered, fearing for their lives, while Steve did the opposite. He curled himself around the grenade, hoping it would stop the explosion he thought would happen. He had shown bravery. This was perfect. He had shown all traits to be Erskine's ideal candidate.

A few days later, Steve had been informed of what was to happen. A "super-soldier" serum was to be injected into him. As well as giving him the perfect physical traits, ( tall, well balanced, muscly), it would also enhance his personal traits. Anything good within in him would become better, but anything bad would become worse.

The next day, Steve was taken to an underground laboratory filled with lots of "important" people coming to witness the transformation. Steve met the man who would be helping to operate the mission, a man named Howard Stark (Who later becomes Tony Stark/Iron Man's father. Small world we live in) and soon after was strapped into a giant machine with doors so that the radioactivity wouldn't leak out. Howard Stark counted down, and the serum began flowing into Steve's body. At first, he began yelling in pain, and the procedure was just about to be stopped, but all of a sudden, a voice came from the machine saying "Don't stop, carry on. I can do it", so the advice of Steve was followed. The serum was transfused into his body, until it was complete and the machinery stopped. The door was opened, and inside sat Captain America at his beginning.

I must say, Captain America is one of my favourite heroes, even my ringtone is the 1960's Captain America cartoon theme song. Happy 95th birthday to the Cap for tomorrow!

Rant lll : Fake Gamer Girls/FGG's

As most of you might already know, I play video games. Assassins Creed, Star Wars games, Mario, Legend Of Zelda, GTA and the Lego games are my favorite ones, and I play them as and when I get to since I adore them. However, I get a lot of stick from male gamers because of the ever growing, ever irritating population of FGG's, more commonly known as Fake Gamer Girls. These are girls that have realised video games are popular with men, and so in an attempt to catch their attention, they pretend to play video games, when in reality, they are bloody terrible at them and couldn't really care less about them.

YOU DO REALISE THERE ARE OTHER WAYS TO GET A GUYS ATTENTION OTHER THAN PRETENDING YOU PLAY VIDEO GAMES BECAUSE WHEN I GO TO PLAY ONLINE IN MULTIPLAYER WITH GUYS, THEY THINK IM LYING!!!!! I don't know much about catching someone's attention, but I do know that you are RUINING my gaming experience! Half the time I have to pretend to be a dude so I can actually not get kicked out the group, and trust me, its so very irritating! I swear, the next time I hear a girl who obviously doesn't like video games say "Ooh my god! I like, totally play COD, like, all the time" I will walk up to the guy she's talking to and just say "You do realise she probably has never even touch a PlayStation or Xbox controller in her life, unless its to put on a movie". I feel like the worst thing is that people are going to continue to fall for it because we want to believe them! Its a vicious and extremely irritating circle.

My advice for girl trying to get a boy
1. Tell the truth
2. If you want to say you play video games, actually try something other COD or actually try playing COD before you say you play it
3. Stay away from the gaming community if you do disregard this advice
4. QUIT TRYING TO RUIN MY FUN!!!!

What else should I rant about?

Poison Ivy Origins

Alright! So I had a request to do the origin of Poison Ivy, and I'm a little shaky on her history, although I adore her, so I do apologize if I get anything wrong.

Poison Ivy started out as (yet another) Doctor Pamela Lillian Isley, a bright, young lady who grew up with wealthy but emotionally distant parents and all alone, since she also had no siblings.

In her early twenties, Pamela started at university, studying advanced botanical biochemistry along with Alec Holland (who later became Swamp Thing, but that's a story for another day)

While studying ABB (abbreviation of advanced botanical biochemistry) Pamela had a teacher named Doctor
Jason Woodrue (aka Floronic Man) who, many created The Swamp Thing and wanted to create another like The Swamp Thing. In order to do this, he needed to get a student to trust him, and Pamela seemed perfect, with her shy, insecure personality, she was easy to persuade. Slowly, Jason Woodrue started to seduce Pamela, and to him, that was easy.

Woodrue needed to get a move on with his experiment, and so when Pamela wasn't expecting it, he injected her with several toxins and poisons, then left her. These poisons started to cause her transformation.

Obviously, since Pamela had poisons and toxins in her system, she was incredibly sick, to the point that she almost died twice, and it slowly drives her into insanity, getting her closer and closer to the villain we know. Woodrue found out about this and knew he'd be caught, and so he ran away from the authorities, leaving Isley in the hospital for 6 months and this enraged Isley, which started to affect her mind by giving her incredibly violent mood swings. She could change mood in the click of her fingers.

Not long after, Pamela's boyfriend (who isn't very important right now and so I don't want to bother naming) was in a car accident in very strange circumstances. He had died from a massive fungal overgrowth and when she hears of this, Pamela drops out of school and moves to Gotham City after realising that the one that released the spores that killed him was her. She had killed him.

Later on Pamela finds she has more talents, like toxic kisses, and ability to contact The Green, which is what is used to contact the plant world. Other abilities are having genius level intellectual, immunity to all toxins and amazing hand to hand combat skills. But by this point she had dropped the name of Pamela Isley in order to become Poison Ivy.

So that's Poison Ivy done! I'm so sorry if I or anything wrong, but my knowledge on Poison Ivy isn't as good as I would like it to be. Anyway, let me know what you'd like next and I'll see you around.

Rant Time II: Attack Of The Angry Asthmatic

I often get a lot of pent up anger, so I feel like having a weekly rant on the internet will do me some good.

Today's rant is about asthma and popular peoples reactions to it. For those of you who don't know, asthma is an illness that causes the bronchioles to be smaller and thinner, meaning you can't breathe as easily and as healthily as others, and this is a problem that I suffer with a little bit AND IT'S SO IRRITATING!!

I love to do running, trampolining and dodgeball, but every time I go to play, I have to stop about 10 or 15 minutes into a session which normally lasts for AN HOUR! GAHHH!

One of the worst things is deodorant. Aerosol deodorants make me cough a lot because they're all I can breathe at that point. And for those sarky people who say "so you don't wear deodorant you minger" I do, I wear roll-on instead. Anyway, back to the subject. I'll go to the changing room after PE, already feeling like an asthma attack is coming and suddenly HISSS. About twenty different flipping aerosols sprayed in my face! So I have to run out of the changing room, normally only half dressed, and sit in the toilets until the changing room is empty, but by that point, girls are in the toilets, fixing themselves up AND SPRAYING MORE FLIPPING AEROSOLS!!!! CAN'T YOU SEE I LEFT BECAUSE I CANNOT BREATHE??!!! YOU IDIOTS!!

I think the people that are in my form are the worst. You see, I'm in Year 9, the year group that thinks that they're super cool, when in reality, they're all d-bags in the making. Anyway, I was in form once, and this annonying popular girl decides its a good idea to spray aerosol in an enclosed room about 2 feet away from me, who she's knows is asthmatic. I start feeling light headed, so ask to leave the classroom and stand outside. I didn't mean for it to happen, but she got told off. I go back in and she gives me what I call "The Look Of Death", which is a look given when you want someone to die.

A week later, the scenario repeats, but she sprays a load more, and I start coughing like I have TB. I go out, she gets told off again. And then two days later it happens again, then the next day, and so on and so forth. CAN YOU NOT SEE EVERY TIME YOU SPRAY I AM GOING TO SPLUTTER LIKE HELL SINCE MY LUNGS CANNOT TAKE IT!!!!!!!! ARE YOU DUMB OR HARD OF HEARING???? OR ARE YOU PLEASED THAT IT LOOKS LIKE MY END IS NEARING??? AND IF THAT'S THE CASE, SCREW YOU!!!!!!!!

Its now become a joke whenever anyone sprays, that my entire form pretend to cough and splutter like they're having an asthma attack!!!!!!! WELL I'M SORRY YOU NEED TO FRESHEN YOURSELF UP EVERY FIVE SECONDS, BUT I HAVE A CONDITION WHICH MEANS EVERY TIME YOU DO THAT, I COULD DIE!!!!!! I'M SO GLAD YOU FIND IT HILARIOUS THAT I CANT BREATH AND AM SLOWLY SUFFOCATING ON YOUR FLIPPING NAMSY PAMSY PERFUMEY STUFF. BUT IF YOU COULD ACTUALLY HELP ME TO GET OUT OF THE FLAMING ROOM SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO CALL 999 INSTEAD OF MAKING FUN IF ME THAT WOULD BE GREAT, THANK YOU!!! BY THE WAY, YOU ANNOYING LITTLE PIECE OF SOMETHING, I'M NOT OVEREATING WHEN I START HYPERVENTILATING IN A LESSON OR IN FORM EITHER!!! I WOULD NEVER FAKE THAT IT FLAMING HURTS!!!!!!! YOU TRY HAVING THE SMALL AMOUNT OF AIR YOU CAN BREATHE POISONED WITH SOME RANDOM STUFF. THEM SEE HOW WELL YOU CAN FLIPPING BREATHE AND TELL ME WHETHER IM OVERREACTING OR NOT!!!!!!!!

Well. I had to go for a walk for ten minutes to chill out. As you can tell, I get very annoyed by people like that. I guess you guys now know, don't annoy me. I'll see you later
