F/31/Watch 30+ movies per year (10 in the theater) and CAN concur. We even live right up the street from a movie theater complex. The last thing we saw was X-Men, which was alright...we might see Planet of the Apes...everything else has been a crapfest. As a kid-less person, I put off watching Frozen for a long time…

Amen. He picks the Netflix DVD's, I pick the movie theater movies. If he reaaaallly wants to see something that I'm not into, I'll go, since the theater complex is literally right up the street from us. I think you are right that they are just banking on international sales and DVD/collector item sales from movies…

can we go back in time and become BFF's so that I can come to your wedding? This sounds like more fun than all the weddings I have been to, all put together.

Just attended one of these that was a combo Country wedding/Child-participant wedding and it was actually really sweet and charming. Each spouse is getting a new step-kid, the step-kids are each getting a sister, and the family had a few moments in the spotlight during the ceremony. Short, sweet and very moving.

I went to one of these once. It was in Georgia and the girl has three sisters to begin with, but then she had his sisters and what must have been like 8-10 cousins. I shit you not, she had like 12 attendants, to his 6. It was ridiculous. Really beautiful wedding...totally lopsided wedding party. But whatevs. I wasn't…

that sounds frustrating and ridiculous

"I can barely handle my own family without a cocktail, why would I expect anything else for my friends :)"

omg so true. that totally nails it. surrounded by someone else's family and weird family friends, spending money left and right all day, probably stressed out, and SOBER?! oh HELL NAW. I may not be a special…

I would GLADLY pay for a cash bar at a wedding over having to attend a dry wedding...especially for some distant relative or acquaintance...any. day.

UGGGHH. I had totally repressed this type of wedding from my memory banks, but YASS. I grew up Baptist AND have family members who have been in AA for decades (now in leadership roles in their areas, not so much with the raging drunk behaviors anymore) and I used to have to attend a LOT of these. I was probably not…

Seriously, I have had SO MANY bad roommates that its hard to remember them all:

*mild-mannered friend from high school who didnt pay rent for the first two months, then finally got a job and got caught up on rent only to move her boyfriend into the house (who was NOT paying rent). All utilities went up, they split her…

seriously "she is moving out at the end of july" are you crazy?!

c-ya!!!

yes!! I rented an apartment once where the landlord told me that the people next door had been caught cooking meth, but that they had caught the cook within a day or two of it being set up. i was shocked that he was honest...and relived that it didnt happen in my unit.

That'sTheTicket

I can't wait to hear about how this guy choked to death on his own dick after his cell mates cut his junk off and stuffed it down his throat.

Just remember it in 25's: 25 degrees way too cold, 50 degrees cold, 75 degrees comfortable (slightly warmer) 100 degrees too damn hot.

yeah, totally. I always saw adoption/fostering kids as multi-beneficial undertaking. You are giving kids a stable home life who otherwise might not have had one (probably did not, based on statistics); you get to raise a kid that did not wreck your body coming into this world (who ha stays in tact, yas!); you are…

I feel the exact same way. When I was a teenager/in my 20's I always said I Never Wanted Kids. Very resolute. Now that I am north of 30 (albeit, just barely) I feel the decision sort of bearing down on me and I can't totally sort out if that vague spark of interest in potential parenthood is rooted in a personal desire…

its all about Pinterest for that shit. Find, pin, done.

like a mix between Gloria and Miss Rosa. :)

I couldnt understand why the guard wouldnt just...I dont know...TAKE THE KEYS?! It's not like you can play music for three hours...it would kill the battery! *facepalm*
