“Parenting” as a cause of behavior (good or bad) is vague to the point of uselessness. Parents certainly have some say in the direction their kids take, but there’s also a pretty large set of psychologists (myself among them) that tend to subscribe to Judith Rich Harris’ theory of group development which holds that…

Product of an overbearingly strict household growing up here: your kid will grow resentful of you and will rebel more due to you treating him like this. I have a great relationship with my parents now (I’m 26), but there was a lot of resentment and tension in the high school/college years due to how much they tried to…

I don’t know you, your kid, or your situation, but I would be careful of going overly harsh. Back in high school my parents threatened to remove me from the rowing team, and I honestly would have tanked/sabotaged my own life before I let them do that. The point being, if you go too harsh you might just create bigger…

Good job, youre kid will now grow up to hate you and will be a burnout stoner as soon as he graduates because you punish instead of educating.

No offense, but if this is real and not a (pretty good) troll job, it sounds like your son has a much bigger problem than vaping, being impressionable, or wanting to fit in. Pulling him out of class and taking him into the principal to confess and rat out the rest of his friends sounds like something that will have…

Your kid is 15 and not allowed to use social media? No wonder he’s rebelling.

I forget what they were called but I always wanted to try that snack they were always eating on Angry Beavers. Kid me didn’t worry too much about it being mostly wood.

One thing I do remember is she tried to pull her cool girl Schtick too far when she was on a talk show and telling a “funny anecdote” about how she scratched her ass on sacred rocks in Hawaii or something of that nature.

Have you tried Siggis? It is truly the queen of deliciously thick yogurts (I’m not a runny yogurt person either).

People in cities who walk everywhere are gonna have a problem. We can’t leave our bag in the car.

Fuck Cinemark. Use another cinema chain instead.

Here’s another question : On “That 70's Show” it starts out in 1975. The show as on for 7 years and ends in 1980. Every season had a Christmas/Thanksgiving episode. Therefore what alternate universe does the show take place in that has those holidays less than 12 months apart?

Hey, I have someone down-thread calling me deranged because I don’t want to die at the hands of a burglar. You don’t have a chance around these parts. To a True Liberal(TM)*, you must let the attacker rape you, because he had a difficult childhood, so check your not-wanting-to-be-raped privilege at the door.

My favorite joke that was made was that the only two white guys in the movie are Martin Freeman, who played Bilbo Baggins, and Andy Serkis who played Gollum, making them the Tolkien white guys.

At that size, looks like a Holþór to me.

for everyone’s enjoyment if you haven’t seen it yet. dude is EXTREMELY likable.

When my brother “took me to task” for not following the bible, I asked him if he’d completed the shack in his back yard where his wife would stay during her monthly cycle. The bible says to separate her from the family during those times. He told me, “The new testament wiped away all the old testament laws.” “Sooooo…

Rigggght? It’s like, I think I just want to be him, but daaaamn. Them lats.

Hell, Chris Evans elicits some very mixed feelings as Captain America, and I’m a heterosexual man.
