My son and I saw it when he was 8 and both loved it. What people find surprising about it is that, unlike every other kid's movie I can think of, it's not a comedy, it's a drama. It's a drama for kids, that's all. It's not "dark", it's not "boring", it's just not kinetic or funny (exactly; it's actually pretty…

You can get reusable menstrual supplies at eco-conscious or natural food stores sometimes and they pretty much seem like menstrual belts to me.

I hope she can have more than one of us.

Or swim.

I think he missed not darkness, but mundanity. There's something pathetic (in both senses) about the "heroes" in Watchmen that he just utterly missed, because it's so cool! I basically liked Watchmen because the source material was strong enough to shine through (I thought the revised ending was fine and an…

Statistics don't really support the idea that in a group of (say) your ten closest friends and family members, no one will cheat over the course of their lives. And that's actual cheating (there are studies on this, most cover married/cohabiting couples and numbers vary between men and women but hover around 15-20% of…

In my case, it depends on what porn films you watch and whether they include a blooper reel.

@avclub-84ca205fe6bc691c41c3bfe5a2820a15:disqus It's true that lots of deployed SOs cheat, consistently and thoroughly.

If I were the other person, I would want to know, and therefore my partner should tell me. For a relationship I'm in, it's as simple as that.

@avclub-011d0b4fe6835bb3d37ef4e0ea713de6:disqus I've thought if I volunteered at the church, though…

I think I have the same friend!

This is good advice. I'd really accentuate that "finding a girlfriend" or "thinking about getting married" are not what you should focus on, but "how do I become a socially-connected person with a wide range of interests, activities I like and can talk about, perceptions, passions, etc." is.

"Calling SexForce Bravo! Boner Alert!"

@avclub-84ca205fe6bc691c41c3bfe5a2820a15:disqus  , I guess the theme of this could sound dictatorial. For example, I've never had a problem explaining to my kid that different language is appropriate in different situations, and he's never had a problem understanding it. He doesn't take "it's fun to make or listen to…

Well, I'm glad I decided to air my grievances and stand corrected.

Yeah, I hated my dad when I found out he'd cheated on my mom (and gave her gonorrhea, no less). I was a teenager and pretty primed to hate my dad anyway and I was totally unforgiving and cold and angry about it.

For what it's worth, I took Don's saying "I was comforting Mrs Rosen" as an attempt at an excuse… I don't think he was expecting Sally to think he wasn't having sex with her; just that he was having sex with her because he felt sorry for her, or something like that.

@avclub-c239ddf0bc583f755f9e086d533f6f4e:disqus Also, I think there's a fair amount of just telling, either to hurt the other person in a fight or over guilt.

Except they totally don't, at least Goodwill doesn't, I've found old things in pants pockets and stuff before.

I really hate "Turkey in the Straw."
