    Petition to stop calling things that are ‘trash’ ‘mid’. ‘Mid’ means middle. I would not be upset by watching something that’s mid but I wouldn’t be happy about it either. I take it that if you can’t be bothered to watch it even for free, it’s probably just ‘trash’

      Trash can be fun. It is so trash its fun, like sharknado or human centipede. But mid just means it is neither good enough nor trash enough to be fun.

        Sharknado isn’t fun. Being a bad movie on purpose is just cringeworthy. Bad movies are fun when they’re a serious (delusional) effort that failed miserably.
