Blazing Saddles around age 9. My dad was thinking a lot about the farting scene when he rented it and not so much about… everything else.
Patrick Klepek@patrickklepek.bsky.social · 3w agoDo you remember what *your* first R-rated movie was? I finally asked my mom (I couldn't remember), and she told me it was The Lost Boys when I was roughly the same age as my daughter (about 9). The movie traumatized her more than it did me, apparently
Massachusetts is about as pure of a distillation of America as you can get. It's where the country started, it's filled with precious national history, it's a paragon of education and civic engagement, it's filled with the loudest and most irritating people alive.
So I said “Bobby Lee, it sounds like you’re just feeding brigades to emplaced artillery” and then Longstreet started crying.

This guy just rolled in from Stupid Town on a much more wieldy contraption, I’m sure.
Kilroy@4miles2roll.bsky.social · 3mo agoYour response indicates you want to spar with other trail users. I’ve encountered these unwieldy contraptions & they are too big for the infrastructure, too powerful for the user, and piloted by uncoordinated, clueless, entitled dunces. They are the equivalent of cybertrucks on paths and trails.
