Would you go to the movies more or less?
Ya know, there's a very simple solution for you conservatives who resent "liberal" Hollywood: boycott most crap Hollywood produces. This left-leaning woman manages to so very easily.

Well, you can build your contemporary version of a fallout shelter and lock yourself in with a lifetime supply of "Highlights" and "Boys Life". And don't forget the DVDs of "Leave It to Beaver" and "Life with Father."
Those should prove suitable.

I never went to the movies weekly. I'm 60 -- nobody I knew ever did.

Bringing up the kids -- we went to every family movie but not weekly. How often did Disney release a movie?

What's changed -- streaming.

If you think it's stupid, then show us where cuebald is wrong. List examples. We'll all wait patiently for your response.

24 year old male being intimate with a 17 year old male: perversion, deviancy, decline in American moral values.

24 year old (or 36 year old for that matter) female teacher being intimate with a 17 year old (or 14 year old) male: atta boy, high fives, where were these teachers when I was going to school wink wink.
