Another mother/daughter tradition, down the drain.

[Bunny]

I was all settled in with Bunny Jr., we're watching The Godfather (first time she's seen it) and I'm explaining the finer points of the various killings and plot lines, and...she gets a call from her BFF Crystal, and now she's going over to her house for the evening. What a disappointment! :-(

[LynzM]

1. Awwww, bummer....

You want to come explain it to me? I've never seen it, either... :blush:

[Bunny]

You should probably come over here.

I'm drinking wine and I don't think I should drive!

[LynzM]

17. Hrm....

Same here... this presents quite the dilemma! :rofl: Ah well, cheers!

[Bunny]

4. I really didn't need to say that twice.

:blush:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

23. WHAT?!?!?!?

x(

[LynzM]

24. I'm very, very movie deprived.

You name it, I probably haven't seen it...

[Starbucks Anarchist]

25. How about The Shawshank Redemption?

I know EVERYBODY'S seen that. ;)

[LynzM]

30. LOL, ok, I've seen that. But I haven't seen....

Titanic, IT, Sixth Sense, a ton of others that I can't remember to name, because I haven't seen them, hehe.

I do feel like I'm missing out on a big piece of American culture, though.

2. Bummer :^( I can't get my older son to give me the time of day either

[Bunny]

5. Sucks when that happens, doesn't it?

Oh well...

[GreenPartyVoter]

10. Yeah. No hugs, no hanging out. Just too cool for Mommy, now.

[lligrd]

26. Heck, Mine Is 19 And I Have To Text Message Him

to get an answer and he lives at home. Can't speak fast enough to talk to him when he comes in and heads straight for his room.

[GreenPartyVoter]

28. You mean it only gets worse? :^(

[AlCzervik]

3. aw sorry Bunny. :-(

we aren't far away from that stage either.

[Bunny]

6. Heh, it's a shame when you can't get your kid to sit down and watch

some good old-fashioned violence, isn't it?

;)

[AlCzervik]

7. yeah, she already won't watch any more zombie movies with me, she doesn't like

Caddy shack or Good fellas which are my 2 favorite movies and ever but she thinks "The Jerk" is kind of amusing. Just sad.

[terrya]

8. I can understand her doing that if it was "The Godfather, Part III"...

but really.....

[Bunny]

9. Hell, even *I* won't sit through that big steaming pile!

:hi:

[terrya]

11. This is certainly true!

:hi:

[no name no slogan]

12. In the middle of "The Godfather"?

I could see if it was Caddyshack, but The Godfather? :cry:

[Bunny]

13. Kids these days...

Sheesh!






:hi: nnns!

[Richardo]

14. Crystal needs to wake up with a hampster head in her bed tomorrow

That'll teach 'em for not knowing Godfather plot elements. :D

Sorry, Bunny. Enjoy the rest of that wine. :pals:

[Bunny]

15. HAHAHAHAHA!

Richie, you so funny! Too bad I didn't freeze the remains of the late, great Mittens, then we'd have just the right prop! :loveya: Richie!

[TheCentepedeShoes]

16. Oh, you didn't !!

I was afraid someone would do that. I'm glad Bunny took it so well.

[Critters2]

19. Yep. Make her an offer she can't refuse.

Mother-daughter time. :)

[seemunkee]

18. In light of your piercing thread

I was wondering what about traditions in your family.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

20. I love that movie.

Want to adopt me? :D

[soleft]

21. I know just how you feel

I posted last week I was all pscyhed to go see Cloverfield with my son, who's 18 and in film school, and he wanted to see it first with friends. We went Wed. tho, 2nd time for him. I hope I get to watch Season premiere of Lost with him.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

22. Hmmm, the basic teenage deliberation....

Friends or mother? Friends or mother? Friends or...

What am I saying? "Friends" beats "mother" 99.98% of the time.

:P

Sorry your night was ruined, but I hope your daughter has a great time nonetheless with Crystal. :)

[leeroysphitz]

27. That blows.

My fear is that my sons will never understand me.

[alphafemale]

29. Yeah. But the Godfather is on what...5 times a month on AMC?

It's quite a complex story for someone to take in all at once anyway.

Don't worry. You can get her to the point where you can roll citrus fruit across the floor at crucial moments. :D
