I’m either going to see it or Bumble Bee and I may flip off my restaurant as I pass it on the way to the theater :grin:

Like most European children, I was a free range kid. Consequences for my stupidity included scars and the possibility of broken bones.

I realize that we don’t want our children in pain, but suffering is the salt of empathy. Not enough and you ruin the depth of the person.

Well it’s pretty traditional dinner items. Mashed potatoes, green-beans, sugar and honey cured ham.
Not sure beyond that, will just see what is asked.

Heh Latin america isn’t so different.

It’s a matter of how the currents of thought of society have changed. Maybe one day there will be a balance.

Sounds like lots of delicious stuff, enjoy it Hazelnut!

/Wraps us both in a blanket
Very cold day?

I think it’s true for most places where the default thing for kids is “Go play Outside”. I get that it’s not always an option in suburbia, there might only be strip-malls in walking distance.

I blame the current thought pattern on rampant trying to live through one’s children.

It sucks that mashed potatoes are probably going to be my high point for today, but it is what it is.

Very.
/builds blanket fort to keep out marauding Snowmen.

I think telling kids to go play outside is less and less common in the entire world nowadays. Dangers just keep growing sadly.

That is definitely a pretty bad factor yeah . Then there’s also how nowadays we must protect a person’s feelings above all other costs.

Mmm nothing else interesting to expect?

!!
/Shudders
/Snuggles

But the world isn’t getting more dangerous, it’s just that the 24 hour news cycle lives on fear.

Well telling people displeasing things without being a jerk is an art.

Well the present opening has been great for me, I got a box of espresso flavored chocolate truffles. Delicious.

Cold there too?
/Pajamas Averyx.

Well, I guess it depends on the place. I can say it’s definitely more dangerous around here.

That’s true, nowadays however, the “not being a jerk” part is still not enough though.

!!! Awesome!
Have you tried them yet?

A bit chilly.
What kind of pajamas are these?

That is true, I just figure the helicopter parents craze started here.

Not being a jerk goes a long way in life.
I mean 9/10ths of the Ten Commandments can be distilled into don’t be a butt to other people.

Yes, and they’re delicious.

Husky doggo pajamas.

That’s probably true. And yeah, over protection has always been and continues to be an issue definitely.

Pretty much, there are times and places to be a jerk, like when one must stand against tyranny, but in general is better to be harmonious.
Heh speaking of being harmonious, China gave a strike to WoW for “inharmonious chat”.

Awesome! /Huuuggggssss
So no troubles yet?

Ohh nice. /Pajamas Evé too

Things are ok so far, but the ambient whiny level is rising.

/Is cozy.
So far my presents seem to be bonbons and booze. I kind of approve.

Not the presents they wanted?

/Is Happy
That’s always welcome, what kind of booze?

Not enough presents apparently.

Gin made with tea.

That’s…uhm, okay then.

Nice, enjoy it hazelnut!

So any other christmas tradition still to happen?

Yea…

Well I’m still here for two more full days, so we will see if I drink it, or mail it home.

Well we already did the Christmas lights thing. I can’t think of anything.

How long would it take to get home?

I see. Will you watch a traditional christmas movie?

Not sure, depends on how much I spend.
Probably go with two day.

Not really. Will probably see if the Mythbusters marathon is on.

That’s quite short.

I see.
So, I’m eating ice cream cake now.

In the end did your ps vita come in handy?

Still had some birthday leftovers there Elsa?

Not really no.

This Christmas one. Ice cream cake comes handy for any date really.

Oh well, at least you have the option for these 2 days.

So are there any pets there?

It’s a lot more dangerous where I live now. Drugs have creeped their way into my quiet little neighborhood. We have had 3 fatal h-overdoses in the last 3 months in a 1 mile radius around me. With that crime is up around us as well
