Another good tip I received was to get them something new for the plane. When I had to fly with my son I got him a new game for his switch and waited to give it to him until after we boarded the plane. That way there was something fresh and new to keep his attention.

I randomly will just start walking as strangely as I can. Lifting my knees really high, shuffling side to side, you know the typical goofy stuff. Then when my daughter inevitably asks what I'm doing, I just proclaim this is how I walk now. Guaranteed eye rolls from her and my wife.

Hey fellow chair repairing brother. I just recently had one of the back supports break on my chair. One mending plate, two screws, and a little hammer into shape and I'm back up and sitting.

You totally nailed the live action Avatar feel. We were half way through one episode and she decided to just go to bed. When I went to stop the episode she told me, "you can keep watching, I saw the cartoon".

I'll check out the other recommendations, thanks!

I'm torn on Korra. I really liked the first season, but I remember it going downhill. I remember the season with Henry Rollins being really dark. Like the whole choking people thing seemed a little much for nickelodeon. That and my wife is still mad about Korra breaking the connection with the past Avatars. I guess I'll leave it up to my daughter if she wants to watch it.

I've seen Full Metal Alchemist suggested a few times. I'll definitely be checking that out.

I still need to get to watching the new season of Scrubs and Malcom too. I cancelled Hulu because fuck Disney, so I guess 🏴‍☠️

My wife used to work for a vet and we had a dog name Stoli. On her paperwork work it always listed "Stolichnaya Shithead OurLastName". It always cracked me up.

FYI, the middle name was pronounced Shi-Thead

Doom - other than the 5 minute FPS sequence, I don't remember a single thing about that movie other than being bored out of my mind watching it

Am I the only one who misses stand-alone superhero movies?

It feels like we've gone past the point that a casual fan can know what the hell is going on and who half the characters are. This is the same crap they did with their comics. You needed to read so many back issues and crossovers that it seemed like more work than it was worth.
