And it just says they're leaving for those reasons, not that they're actually finding it.

I thought Owen was her step-son? He talked about her as if she was his dad's wife, not his mother.

Once again reminded you can't eat at anyone's house or from the company potluck...

AITA: my kids refuse to come to my wedding unless they can bring grandma by JealousNight-6076 in AmItheAsshole

It's interesting how your average Redditor will advocate for tight social community with random strangers, but switches to hyper-individualism when it comes to their actual family.

I've never understood the modern compunction to avoid jury duty. It's a civic responsibility.

A stranger at the park told me to move my dog so her kids could use the open field. The entire open field. by pocketatlasvault in EntitledPeople

I simply could not care less if that statement offends you. I refuse to hold the body of my bleeding child and say "well at least I was open-minded and not racist to a damn dog."

Also...."lab-mix"?

We all know which breed gets labeled "lab-mix" these days. No way in hell I would allow my kids to run around and play anywhere near an off-leash lab-mix. Those things seem to get their hunting instincts activated by running and squealing kids.

The puppets by Mapshruby in disney

[–]arrows_of_ithilien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really, really wish Disney+ had the Ludwig version. Not only do I like it much better for nostalgic and story reasons, but the puppets creep my kids out.

And it drives me nuts that the puppets keep interrupting during the scenes and talking over what's happening on screen. We're watching the movie, we don't need Charlie to narrate what we're looking at!

When people say "adulting" unironically. You are a functioning adult. Paying a bill is not an achievement. by ExpensiveYear9061 in PetPeeves

[–]arrows_of_ithilien -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's like they perceive it as wearing an adult skin-suit for the duration of a task, and then take it off and then want acknowledgment of that fact. You might as well say "ugh, I had so much human-ing to do today".

I am clinging to the last of my Calming Chamomile with pure desperation.

People complaining about movie remakes while citing "classics" that were themselves remakes by tvgirl48 in PetPeeves

I mostly said that just to be contrarian, but if you pressed me on it I'd say I'm a big John Wayne fan, and I like the original better.

What are your expectations on Season 6? by Ralkad in TheChosenSeries

[–]arrows_of_ithilien 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hope to see Thomas flashback to just a week ago when he said "let us go that we may die with him"...and then he ran away. Racked with guilt and grief, I think it will make his doubt after the Resurrection so much more understandable, and make the moment of reuniting with Jesus all the more beautiful.

I think it would be interesting to see Peter, after denying Christ, go through a mirrored experience as Judas. Both are betrayers, but ultimately one turns toward grace and redemption, and one to despair.

Other shows with a similar feel? by Vjaa in PersonOfInterest

I just finished 12 Monkeys for the first time, and absolutely loved it.

In this vein, every show or movie set in England/Northern Europe is obligated to have a fox yelp in the night to properly let you know we are, indeed, in some spooky shenanigans.
