Counterpoint: YES.

I feel the same way. To me it’s an issue with already knowing the conclusion to a story. Some people still enjoy it for the journey, but I still say the enjoyment is lower when you know how it all ends.

LOL! Medium well is just fine for me. I could maybe do Medium...but it does not need to be dripping red. Ewww...

Hey, I have to thank you. It was nice to see my mom again.

I’ve reached the stage in life where I don’t recognize the names of people LEAVING Saturday Night Live.

My god, this comment encapsulates my gaming experience at age 39.

But the question still remains; who is better at competitive fighting games? Parents or kids?

When you start identifying with the grown ups you know you’re old.

I mean that and the whole “a few bad law enforcement officers” cop out that is so ridiculous on its face it’s an immediate tell about the person you’re talking to.

I haaaaaaaaate Tigger, I use him to teach my 5 year old about respecting people’s bodily autonomy and property.

The Little Mermaid. My fave in fourth grade.......................... now I’m like, CHILD YOU ARE 16 WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU’RE IN LURVE WHO THE HELL IS THIS OLD ASS TWENTY-SOMETHING MAN YOU’VE ONLY MET ONCE

I’ve read it a few times and couldn’t agree with the following more:

See also: The Breakfast Club. Found myself rooting for the teacher last time I sat through that.......

That’s not all by mistake, I’ll bet. Adults are the natural enemies of children, what with all the rules and arbitrary authority. Programming for kids meant creating kid-like protagonists who are a little anarchist and smart-mouthed and who, for the most part, defeat the staid old fogies.

Kids are virtually powerless (or used to be) and this is why they LOVE assholes.

I find lots of movies do that, not just kid’s fare. I recently Netflixed Quadrophenia (with Sting!), about the Mod movement in England and it was one of those very popular angry young man type films where the protagonist is supposed to be heroically rebelling against the system.

We watch old Minnie Mouse / Figaro / Pluto cartoons all the time (my toddler loves them) and my favorite thing is that Pluto is a total jerk.

I feel this way about Fantastic Mr Fox (he’s an asshole), but I’m still on Peter Rabbit’s side. He’s just kind of an idiot from an idiot family of, well, rabbits. Sure, they all have their clever moments and their streaks of curiosity, but essentially they are motivated by food and sleep.

tom & jerry...... jerrys a right arse
