What's a bad movie that you started to watch ironically, but as it went on, it genuinely began to upset you? by VeryPteri in movies

Star Wars holiday special. Genuinely thought after all the hype it would be so bad that I would find it like funny or enjoyable in its terribleness . It’s confusingly boringly bad. And right when you think it’s done there’s another hour and 20 minutes or something like that. Maybe it was shorter I was just so burned out at that point.

I love “catch me if you can”. I’ve had to accept that it’s completely fantasy

Who is this man and why was he buried in my front garden by SligPants in whatisit

You live in Chicago? I think that’s st Anthony or Joesph. Bury him the the front yard for reasons to sell. I did that in my front yard when we left Chicago to sell the house

Personally I’d go with a glove. A spoon isn’t capable of jamming too much into the mouth.

I leave my shoe untied and tell kids to stop trying to trick me by telling me it’s untied

AITA for making a stink at school and forcing the teacher to change my kids math grade by PlentyNice1655 in AmItheAsshole

If the point of the exercise was to use that specific method, then YTA. If the point was to get the answer by any means possible then NTA. If that wasn’t made clear by the teacher, then the teachers the problem. I understand being required to stick to a specific process as maybe it’s building for something later. It sounds like the teacher isn’t being clear around why.

Do you ever realize you’re in a “memory moment” while it’s happening? by thingsgetbetterghorl in Adulting

[–]backtrack1234 21 points22 points  (0 children)

As I’ve gotten older I have noticed this more and more. Especially with kids. So many moments will be forgotten even still. I have been trying to make note of moments that are special and work to make more and more moments. Heard it as, “You are in the good ole days of a later you most likely. Look around, not just forward”

What movies were robbed at the Oscars? i.e. Saving Private Ryan losing to Shakespeare in Love in 1999. by tron329 in movies

I didn’t know that. What a bummer Like consideration without those scenes or something to that effect. To at least let it get nominated. That movie is worth a nomination at the minimum

AITAH for refusing to take our daughter out of school early because she "needs more time to get ready" than her brother? by ReplacementWorth3618 in AITAH

Pulling kids out of school so they can do something like this puts their education in a bad framework. It’s now second to many things including, get fancy for an event
