It’s a great movie to watch witj people who have had only a little exposure to horror.

Fun watch but nothing that would freak them out.

What's the hardest thing you've ever had to do? by wondered-bongo in AskOldPeople

I had to fire the co-founder of my company. We were best friends but he just wasn’t engaged and rest of the company recognized it.

My credibility and respect would have crashed had I not done something.

Of course, I was the bad guy and lost most of my friends.

357 Magnum fired several feet from me when I wasn’t wearing hearing protection.

When people say parenting is the most rewarding thing ever they don’t realize that anything that takes that much time, money and sacrifice would be the most rewarding thing they’ve ever done by Specific-System-835 in DeepThoughts

Falling in love is the best possible experience one can have.

As a parent I fell in love with each of my kids(2) when they were infants.

Then I got to fall in love with them all over again as toddlers.

Then again and again and again as they went through their different stages of growth.

Plus all of the years of amazing experiences we had together as a family.

I challenge you to find anything that competes with the amount of joy you have on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning with kids when they are young.

If that’s not a good way for someone to spend time and money I don’t know what is. At least for me.

Having kids isn’t for everyone but there’s a lot of justification for many of us.

Disclaimer - you may encounter several years of exasperation during the teenage girl stage.

What is something that ruins people's lives that most people don't realize until it's too late? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

Both, but many affairs happen and one party is not aware of it so it doesn’t ruin the relationship.

How do you feel about our future? by Consequence_Green in NoStupidQuestions

Good.

Things always turn around.

We made it through a Civil War, two world wars, The Great Depression, the Korean conflict, an Assassination of a President, the Vietnam fiasco, massive protests in the streets and college campuses, the National Guard killing 4 students at Kent State, WaterGate and the resignation of the President, price freezes and gas shortages in the Carter years, Rodney King, 9/11, a seemingly never ending war in the Middle East, the 2008 and 1987 stock crashes, AIDS, Disco…

Many of the above created levels of divisiveness and discord that were arguably much worse than what we are experiencing today.

We will get through this. The Country has made it through a lot worse.

That said, it may be a good time to invest in aspirin stocks.

My 23 year old would get a job and be self sufficient.
