That's not...that's not actually being protective. That's being abusive. They're two separate things.

She enables Macho Man's shitty attitude and won't stand up for herself over things like this. And I've tried to talk to her about this, but anything you say about her kids (even if you are her kid) is taken as the world's worst insult. Like, I can't even reference his bad behavior in the context of talking about him.

And when I make a self-depricating joke? I'm met with "shut the fuck up, nobody talks about my kid like that".

That's still not being protective. That's her trying to justify her own existence by making herself and her family seem like the most perfect thing ever.

Protection is an act of love, of selflessness. Even if it is done poorly, it is usually done out of good intentions in regards to one's children or family. What she's doing is selfish and for her own desires. There's a difference.

Anyway I don't know your family or the situation so I'm gonna drop it, but that's my two cents.

That's exactly what I'm saying, I just do not get that attitude at all.

SO Ratchet and Clank was cute. It was a pretty typical story, very much writteni in the cheeky style a lot of kids movies are today, the Dreamworks style films in particular. But it worked well, enough, lots of callbacks to the games for fans and a few little cameos from other Sony IP
Jak and Sly Cooper
. My kid loved it a lot more than i dd. It wasn't fantastic, but it was serviceable enough. John Goodman and Rosario Dawson were far and away the best things about the film.
My nephews also loved it and of course my sister told them that I have game based on a movie, so they want to play it for an hour every afternoon :)
Oh we have only synchronized version-it is usual for 'smaller' CGI movies, big hitters like Ice Age had original and synchronized version.

confession: I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to cars

due to my busy lifestyle I haven't got around to changing my oil for awhile. It's like 6k miles overdue :(

I now have a flashing MAINT REQ light when I start my car. How fucked am I?
