I watched it about a million times and laugh/sobbed too, thanks to a former complicated relationship with an untreated alcoholic.

Very lucky! I was probably 9 when I read it. Stephen King was definitely the unwitting destroyer of my innocence. haha

Also the scariest part of the movie!

The Library Policeman traumatized me. :(

Mosquitos have been vicious here too, and I can’t wait for the temperatures to drop.

I think he’s implying that murders wearing clown costumes are perceived as worse; such as Pennywise and AHS’s Twisty. And he’s saying Pennywise or not, murders are all bad.

It makes sense, since we’re also eating and drinking the pain away. My husband was complaining that his job is too stressful because he thinks all his coworkers have gained 15 lbs since January. I was like... UM, DUH— it’s not your job, it’s the American crisis! We’re all dulling the pain with delicious comfort food…

I keep seeing massively pregnant women everywhere! I work at a university, so I almost never encounter children or babies or pregnant women. But this morning on the subway I saw 4 separate 7+ month bellies! I noticed because each time I thought to myself I’d die if I had to ride the subway while uncomfortably…

Hahaha! I need to make that my mantra. Daughter of a hoarder here and my husband is a minimalist. I am getting better at letting him throw my things out, but whenever a situation comes up where I sure could use that thing he threw out, I can’t help comment on it. Yesterday he bought me flowers, but I couldn’t find a…

You’re both right! My now-husband bought me a puppy 3 months before our wedding, while I was in the final semester of my Master’s degree, working full-time, and training for a half marathon. Aside from my utter sleep deprivation from the 3am potty breaks, it worked out! I wrote my whole thesis with the pupper napping…

One of my family members-in-law is utterly fanatical about the “fact” that cannabis oil CURED her cancer. Not as a form of pain relief, but as an actual alternative to chemo. NOt only is she a batshit Facebooker, she even travels around giving talks and everything. It’s so sad and so, so dumb.

13/10 would stream your Horrormark channel.

And millennials with podcasts. My mom watches Hallmark movies on loop on Youtube. The casts and plots are perfectly interchangeable. She can fall asleep in the middle of one movie and wake up at the end of another and it still makes sense. The same way I can zone out in the middle of MBMBaM and know that I missed…

I watched the whole trailer assuming it was Jemima. The family resemblance is strong! And they’re so lovely! They’re like the Hemsworths.

I usually do rum with coconut!

My dog chose exactly that moment to try and steal a buffalo wing off the table, so I went to grab him and knocked something over so my husband was like “are you gonna pick that up?” and I was like “Wait! SHHHH!! what did she say??? Is she pregnant?!”

LOL at the evil eye— not true in my family. But not gonna lie, it drives my Mexican mom and grandma crazy that I like to be barefoot in my house because to them, cold feet = disease and inevitable death. I dunno, I think nurses should be aware of cultural superstitions and healers. My aunt rubs alcohol on her feet…

Oh yeah! One of the local nightclubs just premiered a 2000s-Indie night called “Mr. Brightside.” I am HERE FOR IT.

Looks like they weren’t prepared for the “featured on Lifehacker” effect. I hope it evens out soon. I’m enjoying it, but the slowness is a real turn-off.

My parents have literally not spoken a single word to each other in about 20 years since the divorce and everyone thinks its soooooo sadddd and “don’t you wish they would get back together? :( :( :(” but IDGAF. You get used to it and what do they even have to talk about? Yeah, it was a little bit awkward to keep them…
