Mega Users seabass07 Posted December 11, 2013 Mega Users Share Posted December 11, 2013 I don't have time for movies anymore. Too many things I'd rather be doing with my time off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasejase Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I agree. We don't really watch a ton of TV these days. Havent been to a movie theater in a good 18 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurlyOldManMN Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Just broke the news of moving to the 1820's farmhouse/business opportunity to the kid. She knew of the potential, but not that it was for sure happening. She is not happy. And, it pains me a bit to say... I don't care as much as I thought I would. She'll have her pick of amazing spaces in this home to make her own. She says she doesn't want to live in a museum, but we will all need to work to make it ours, not a museum. I can't freaking wait to move. I can't wait to have local mini-subie-regional event here. It is magical. The beautiful thing about being an adult now? She doesn't have to if she REALLY doesn't want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syndicate Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Why are so many people on this site so good movie illiterate? ...depends on the movie I suppose. I watch with my wife every X-Mas. And you have time to watch crap, action movies, I'd bet. ...I have plenty of time to watch movies, long as it's Cars, Cars 2, or Wreck-it-Ralph. My wife and I may try to sneak a movie in on the weekend after the kids are asleep, but it often ends up watching us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KartRacerBoy Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Truth. Can't remember the last time I saw a non-kids movie at the theater. Cannot justify $15 of movie tickets plus $25-30 for a babysitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KartRacerBoy Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 The $74.29 soda and popcorn bill isn't going over to well either. Whenever I take my daughter to a movie, we usually take one of her friends, too. And we stop at a pharmacy to buy bulk candy at 1/100 of the theater cost and sneak it in. We never get anything at the theater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife and I may try to sneak a movie in on the weekend after the kids are asleep, but it often ends up watching us. During the Xmas season, as a family we'll generally watch 4-6 movies together. Anything from Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer, Elf, Year without a Santa Claus, the Story of Santa Claus, Miracle on 34th St., Holiday Inn, White Christmas, All that Heaven Allows, and/or Santa Buddies. A Christmas Vacation is never watched becz wife and I deemed it unfunny.  We try to make Friday nights a family night year round, but in the holiday season, we tend to watch those movies rather than play games.

First time away from the kid(s) in 2 1/2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KartRacerBoy Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I don't really see Die Hard as a XMas movie, fun as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBT Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Watching the 1994 Miracle on 34th Street right now. Not nearly as engaging as the 1947 version, but the plot has its own merits. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She still believes in S.C. too Took her on a Polar Express train ride last year, it was a blast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KartRacerBoy Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Watched Sound of Music at my friends house with all the kids. Who needs a movie theater when your buddy had a monster big screen? And wine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I've never been a fan of Chevy Chase. Bill Murray, on the other hand, is funny. But want what you want capitalist pig! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KartRacerBoy Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Is "butt paste" the scientific term or the CT08 term? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasejase Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Is "butt paste" the scientific term or the CT08 term? Â It's the brand. Ct08 likely uses it on his own diaper rash though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
