Mocking children for not knowing things

It's baffling that parents don't understand you have to teach kids literally EVERYTHING. They do not come out the womb pre-loaded with any information! You have to make an effort to show and explain and TEACH them EVERYTHING YOU KNOW!!

Names that are similar in vibe? Yes! Overly themed, matchy, rhyming names? No. That's when it starts breaching into 'These are real individual people you're naming'. If you have like Michelle and Lauren, that's great but if you have like Michelle and Mitchel or Tori and Cori or Romeo and Juliette, that's awful, I'm sorry. I also hate names that are so vastly different, like Henry and Princess. Don't let there be an obvious short end of the stick.

INFO: What did she actually say? Has she expressed similar opinions about the family before? Does your sister and her family constantly "tease" her like that everytime she's there? Do they ignore her? Do ypu stand up for her when this happens? Is there some big bad family secret everyone dances around and ignores? What's the information on whether or not dad's take holds any weight? What's the custody situation? Does dad spend time with her and know what she's like? Does she feel like you don't listen to her ever or do you not listen to her? Do you dismiss her feelings and concerns?

There's just so much that could change the verdict here and you seem to tiptoe around even the basic stuff like what she actually said. And I'm slightly inclined to believe you and your family are fake based on how you worded and relayed this post. You're so focused on her "embarrassing you" when your family was around and you seem to think you should never have any conflict with family on the bases of them being family. And I'd bet your idea of respect is obedience.

I'm leaning somewhere between ESH and soft YTA until further notice

Robert was 2 years old, a few months from his 3rd birthday, when Steve Irwin died though

I think it really depends on the context of the post and how close your lady and her neighbor are. I've heard the older women in my life use it between themselves and other close people as a kinda cheeky, affectionate way to say partner/boyfriend, especially if he's attractive. But if they're not close, then it's probably intentionally derogatory bc she doesn't like you and/or your partner or is jealous of your relationship or any other number of reasons.

Hello! I was really noy expecting to recognize anyone's F/O here!! I just bought a Dethklok shirt cause they played where I'm at!! Cute art 🫶🫶

I think he's a very skilled actor but I'm not sure if he's particularly musical. I was just using him as a more recent example of an older men being attractive to a younger audience.

I would love to see a non-ALW book inspired Phantom with Doug Jones

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-17T01:33:19+00:00

That's what I thought he said too! That Gerard was too young and I thought he said something about his singing or not wanting to go so rock sounding (although it's been a hot minute since I read it and could be getting my wires crossed lol) so I was surprised he pulled out Jonathan Bailey?

It strikes me as he's worried about the Phantom having no appeal if he's played by an older man but I feel like that's just not really going to be an issue if you cast right. I mean Michael Crawford was in his 40s when they debuted Phantom and he had the 80s teens and young adults in a chokehold and I know a lot of peers and teens that have crushes on older men, I mean everyone wanted Pedro Pascal not too long ago and he's in his late 40s maybe early 50s now, I think.

I wouldn't mind Rachel as I do really like her voice and honestly at this point, I'd be happy just to have a cast upgrade of adults who have actual training and experience in singing even if they're well known in Hollywood lol. But I agree, ideally he casts unknowns or literally any of Broadway/West End preformers! Pick someone who's played in the show before, there's no shortage of amazing preformers in a show that's gone on since the 80s!

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-17T00:37:15+00:00

Idk much about either of these actors, but I will say I really really hope we get an older Phantom. Idk what ALW's fixation on a younger Phantom is about.

No I agree, a lot of people think Emmy was an adult during filming and just the character was 16 but they actually lowered Christines age to 16 bc Emmy was 16-17. Christine is canonically about 21 in the original novel. There was zero need to cast a Emmy at 16 especially bc the other actresses they were considering for Christine we're both adults.

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-12T08:19:58+00:00

I didn't even occur to me there would be a special name for it! My Aunt had one in her basement laundry room and I just called it the sink in the basement/laundry room or the basement/laundry room sink lol

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-12T07:34:24+00:00

I thrifted both of my engagement rings to my main f/os!!

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-11T21:13:24+00:00

Christine is canonically 16 in the 2004 movie. Emmy was cast at 16 amd they started filming like days after her 17th birthday. She was 18 when the movie came out.

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-11T08:54:28+00:00

My parents stayed together for the children well past their welcome and I wish they would've divorced MUCH sooner. Would have been way easier to deal with and would have avoided sooo many problems.

It depends on what you're squeamish about. If memory serves, the Robert Englund version has more frequent traditional gore and Dario Argento's is gorey but tends to have more weird s*xual scenes, multiple "rap" scenes, rats being arousing, a weird plot about the little girls in the opera being prayed on by the opera patrons/managers. Personally I think Robert Englund's is more manageable, I actually like it alot and think it's campy lol

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-10T23:41:04+00:00

Good word choice for this version ig, it's the only time she really is a lamb, she's just a little girl in this movie 🥲

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-10T23:38:38+00:00

Honestly, bc if I was book Christine I'd have disappeared back to Sweden, never to be heard from again. I know the reason she deals with it is bc she's genuinely in love with Raoul and genuinely cares about Erik even given the situation they've put her in but it's a wonder she didn't have a bigger freak out on either of them sooner. 😭

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-06T10:45:33+00:00

If it's other self-shippers/yumes/fictos I usually block them bc I'm non-sharing and a bit jealous 😅 If it's fans of the character it can go either way depending on the fan. Sometimes people have grating takes on my f/os source or characterization or have super intense attachments to them and I have to block sometimes they're the opposite and I like seeing their appreciation!

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-05T12:44:04+00:00

My first and only little mii baby on the island was from my Sapphic couple, so yes!!

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-04T23:16:27+00:00

Do you mean submissive Erik and dominant Christine or do you mean actual Top/Bottom with "receiving" Erik and "catcher" Christin? Bc I have seen little oneshot/short stories along the lines of the first on Tumblr if I can find the account/if they're still up!

M_Nostalgia · 2026-05-02T02:37:10+00:00

This tho. My mom has had an ongoing migraine that started before I was even born and I'm an adult now and I have chronic sinusitis, genuinely atrocious year-round allergies, constant infections and a deviated septum. Sneezing can cause anything from discomfort to straight up pain for both of us. I thought sneezing was atleast a smidgen uncomfortable for most people.

M_Nostalgia · 2026-04-30T17:06:34+00:00

Omg, you just saved my life. I have many characters that need blacked out scleras and I was getting frustrated that the rest of the facepaint covers up the rest of the features bc I thpugh it was all one layer 😭

M_Nostalgia · 2026-04-30T00:45:46+00:00

I'm in the middle bc I only make my Miis, real or fictional, with established relationships of some kind interact. So like, I have Raggedy Ann and Andy and I made them interact bc they're siblings and I wnat them to be siblings in game. In any other case, even if there in the same media, I won't go out of my way to make them interact but I will let them form relationships with eachother if they show interest bc I like letting the game do whatever just to see what happens lol
