My Mom's mad at me now, because I spoiled the movie "Inheret the Wind" for her. I was just asking if what she was watching was about the Scopes trial, the one where the guy lost but the position was made that changed future policy. How was I supposed to know that she didn't know Scopes lost? Come on, it's history! It's like watching Titanic and being surpised when the boat sinks and everyone dies.

Aw, crap! The boat sinks and everybody dies????!!! Thanks for ruining that movie for me!

(Sorry. Had to.)

One of the most hilarious BBS threads I've ever seen was about "Inherit the Wind," when someone said, "I fell asleep, how did it end?" and the whole board piled on with bogus endings.

And then there's my mom, who watched the John Travolta movie Phenomenon four times (I know this, because I watched it two of those times with her), and each time she did, the next time she watched the movie, she wouldn't remember seeing it before. Once in a while she'll still point out Phenomenon at movie rental places. "This looks like a cute movie!" It IS a cute movie, Mom. You've liked it all four times.


Moms. Oy. :)

::giggle:: I've done that. But usually by the time I've watched a bit, some or all of it comes back to me. Sometimes I remember it, but I forget the ending. Still, that's funny.

I live to disappoint in the meanest way possible.

That sounds pretty good. I love when conversations get really fun like that.
