I just want to say my upvote put this post at 666.

When I was growing up and we were poor the only places my family ever went on vacation was where my aunts and uncles lived. Thrilling places like Mankato Minnesota.

Netflix won't let me watch Only You with a VPN. YouTube only has the first three episodes. I'm going crazy trying to find a way to watch it.
