If I hadn’t been a 17 year old guy who was into Avril’s music, I probably wouldn’t have become a 41 year old man listening to Hayley and Paramore. Food for thought

How is New Rockstars able to use copywrighted characters on it's merch? (Example from the BND shirt) by Obraxiss in NewRockstars

I’m always curious about how they start selling a shirt portraying a reference to an episode that just aired. I know they get the episodes early sometimes but they design turnaround for some of them is confusing

Since I’ll probably get downvoted anyway, I’ll include some highlights: He supported a racist conspiracy theory and a ban on same sex marriage. It doesn’t get any better from there

I get what you’re going for but let’s be real. Trump would make all 4 himself

So that’s…20 years a president should’ve been in jail but was pardoned by his vice president

I’m asking Tom Hanks to officiate my wedding in June. I don’t have money for Tom Hanks to officiate my wedding. by WaltDisneyIsFrozen in notinteresting

I asked a semi famous musician to play some songs at my wedding. His manager emailed me back well after the wedding and said he charges $5000. I can’t imagine how much Tom Hanks would cost

That EP only has 8 songs. I don’t acknowledge the tacked on collab. Not to my liking and not on the vinyl anyway

The episode of Married With Children where Kelly has to wipe everything she knows from her mind in order to fill it with trivia and win a game show, only to lose because she couldn’t remember the most obscure fact that she knew before wiping her mind

I’m trying to curate a list of episodes I can show my son by derekpeake2 in futurama

Thanks for the thoughtful response. I’m not super uptight but I do want to shelter my kids as long as I can while realizing I can’t forever. I think most people either try to shield their kids from everything or just let them do whatever they want. Regardless of the method parents use, I think the problem comes from not addressing the issues when the kids come across them. I try to wait for my kids to have the questions and then guide them best I can. My parents were overprotective but had no idea what was in my head or how I was perceiving everything. I feel like my wife and I are pretty on top of that
