Welcome to the Christmas Party, Pal!
I’m not going to have the “is DIE HARD a Christmas movie” debate because there is no debate.
DIE HARD IS 100% A CHRISTMAS MOVIE.

Action Movie One-Liners for Every Parenting Scenario
One of the most annoying (according to my wife) and also best (according to me), is my habit of constantly quoting movies for no reason. I have seen a lot of movies and I remember a lot of lines from them, and I enjoy repeating them out loud, even when they have no relation to what is happening at the moment. It’s adorable (me) and infuriating (her).
So I’ve decided to make an effort to quote lines that do make sense in the moment, and to help me this endeavor, I’ve made a list of memorable lines from action movies that apply to everyday parenting situations.
You can use them too! You’re welcome.

Questionable Parenting in A QUIET PLACE
Over the weekend, Mom and Buried and I went to the movies. We were visiting my family in Connecticut and we took advantage of the free babysitting to see A Quiet Place.
I enjoyed the movie but I had some issues with it. Particularly with the parenting.
First things first: if you live in a world ravaged by monsters that rely on sound to find you, DON’T GET PREGNANT!
Nonstop spoilers ahead. DON’T CONTINUE IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THE MOVIE.

Scarier Movies
In a lot of ways, kids make Halloween more fun. But, like everything else, they also make it much, much worse.
For example, last night, as part of our month of scary movies, instead of watching something legit like Let The Right One In (the original FTW!) or The Conjuring, we watched Hocus Pocus. (Which was much scarier, for totally unintentional reasons.)
Because parenting.

Disney’s World
Earlier this year, when I wrote about the lack of Disney in children’s lives earlier this year, a few people chimed in to tell me I have a blind spot because I don’t have a daughter.
Which is exactly right.
But Disney is not just about girls – nor is it particularly absent – when you consider all the properties they own. Which you’ll be able to do at will this fall, since Disney is now on Netflix.
