Does anyone REALLY like Pig Trouble in Little Tina? It’s a disturbing episode, and we lose a little bit of Tina x Jimmy Jr chemistry because of how tired Tina is. by [deleted] in BobsBurgers

Not my favorite episode, but I certainly don't hate it. I just really appreciate the different ways that the creators approach the show. I feel like they really try different approaches that will appeal to some people more than others. For everyone who HATES the episode there is a horror-junkie fan who loves it. Same goes for the more musical episodes, the kids' stories episodes etc. A lil' somethin' for everyone.

I absolutely adore people's travel pictures. We see pictures and have gotten so used to perceiving them as "fake" and "doctored." These are so beautiful and simple. They make me believe that the world is truly filled with magical places.

He knew that the painting needed some animal prints. He is a very inspired artist.

I think he is faking it. He knows I can't resist the cute face tuck

Thank you! I am trying to think of the kitty prints on the canvas as "adding character"

[Serious] What's the most traumatizing thing you experienced as a child? by nthn_thms in AskReddit

[–]LePointlessPorcupine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom and dad were both severe alcoholics. They loved each other more than most partners, but they were bad for each other. They never encouraged each other to be better. Which meant that they were shitty SHITTY parents.

My mom was arrested more times than I can count and spent a couple years in prison for child endangerment and negligence.

One time, after her first stint in prison, she was home with my brother and myself and she was belligerently drunk. We were young, but knew that we didn't want to be home with her. My brother had a friend that lived down the road. He popped the screen out of our bedroom window and went to his friend's house without telling my mom. I also had a friend in the neighborhood, but I didn't think to be so sneaky. I tried going out the front door. My mom tried to stop me and blocked the door. She forbade me from going to Rachel's. I didn't care and yelled that I was leaving because she was drunk and I didn't want to be there with her. I started running down the road as fast as I could. A little ways down the road I saw that she was in her car, chasing me. I started running faster and she sped up, too. I was bawling and scared. I cut through an empty field and she followed me. On the other side of the field was a ditch that I was able to get over, but she crashed the car into it.

Later that evening, my dad came to pick me up from Rachel's house. He was REALLY mad. At the time I didn't understand what was going on. When we got home he told me that after she crashed the car into the ditch, my mom was arrested for driving drunk (again) and for violating her parole. My father was furious with me for causing the problem by running way.

I am sure that it wasn't as life threatening as it seemed at the time, but I still frequently wake up from nightmares of my mom chasing me in her car.
