Just this thread is enough that I will have to eat pizza sometime this weekend, and by sometime, I probably mean on the way home from work before my daughter's latest show (Shrek the Musical). My daughter's 13th birthday party is tonight (actual day is Sunday). Six not-very-quiet girls (my daughter among them) will be swimming in the pool and then doing god-knows-what later in the house (they're all spending the night). We're getting three pies, with some garlic knots. I've already done the math. Her and her friends will put down about 2 slices each. My wife might have one or two. That leaves plenty more for me...and you're damned right I'm going to make a hell of a dent! Enjoy the show tonight (and the pregame pizza)!

Although I’m not sure the garlic knots don’t affect the formula, the McCallister family didn’t order any. Enjoy the party! The sleepover is extremely brave, we have yet to do that with more than one friend at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sleepover is extremely brave, we have yet to do that with more than one friend at a time. Some of them might have managed three slices without the knots. We're going to have other goodies too (chips, cake later, etc) so it's not like they won't be filling up on pizza alone. Yeah we've done the multi-gal sleepovers a few other times. There's the occasional "emotional" moment and for some reason young girls can get very shrill and shriek-y in like company, but it's really not that bad once you get used to them...her and her friends are respectful enough, that if you tell them to stop doing something, they will. Now that they're all teens or soon-to-be teens, they're a little more independent, and more capable of not making life-threatening decisions...still need to be watched, but gone are the days of constantly having to say "Don't do that, watch what you're doing, don't do that..." As you know, when they're little they just aren't capable of realizing that certain actions can wind up hurting them severely or even killing them. Potential head-trauma injuries are always right around the corner. There's less of that now, but there's always that "one" in the group who you just KNOW is going to do dumb things...and there's definitely one in this crowd (not my daughter, thankfully). She's the type who'll attempt a backflip on a whim into a pool, and wind up smacking her head on the side...or will see a shopping cart and think "Let's climb in and ride this down a steep hill!" The good thing is her friends usually stop her before she goes full retard, but for obvious reasons I'll be watching rather closely tonight, once the swimming starts.

mfitz804 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 The only reason we haven't done it is my daughter's room is small and not conducive to it. Last girl who slept over, they opted to go on air mattresses in the living room instead of sleeping upstairs. Which was also fine. In any event, good luck to you, and you'll be earning your pizza tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t fully inflate though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on our third now. The first one, my father in law borrowed for a hunting trip, and the next time we tried to inflate it, it wouldn't hold air. The second one, my daughter slept at my inlaws and it came back broken. My inlaws don't get to borrow it anymore. Last time they asked we told them we didn't have it anymore.

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Thanks mfitz! Same deal, re: my daughter's bedroom...if she has one friend over, they'll usually crash in there. More than that, it's air mattresses in either the living room or her "entertaining" room. They'll watch movies and stuff late night, which is fine...they'll stay up till 3-4 am sometimes. As long as they're quiet, we're OK with it...we just make it clear that if we have something to do the next day and she's spent, no bitching about being too tired.

What an amazing place. Rock 'N Brews in Redondo Beach is one of the places we hung out at, were there a couple of times within a 5 day period. It was the kind of place that I wanted to live, but I wanted to live like I was on vacation, not do stupid sh!t like going to work and stuff. It's too nice there to be indoors, can a lawyer just plop a desk in the sand and see clients on the beach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of Home Alone: https://screenrant.com/home-alone-reboot-release-date-november-2021/ I mean, fvck right off with this sh!t. First of all- it worked in 1990 because there were no cell phones; not so much now. This is also the type of bullsh!t I’m talking about when I talk about a lack of original ideas in Hollywood. Just reboot old sh!t that was awesome, do a horrible job at it, ca$h in on people’s nostalgia. Must be tough being being a content creator these days with all the originality and great ideas out there.

Yeahh, i can see argument to remake SOME older movies that may need it now to get to its audience BUT the original home alone still holds up perfectly to this day. Why they'd want to remake it makes absolutely no sense. I'm even surprised they didn't go with their typical gender or race swap with this one, especially since it's Disney. That kid was hilarious in Jojo Rabbit though. But i just can't imagine this movie having any sort of success Actually i just received the vintage Home Alone board game i ordered from Ebay today lol I got all 3 Home Alone board games now Edited August 13 by SterioDesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year, we’ll hear that they’re rebooting A Christmas Story with fvcking Seth Myers and Kate McKinnon as the parents, and some child YouTube stars as Ralphie and and Randy; except it takes place in the present day, and Ralphie wants a Nintendo Switch from Santa instead of a Red Ryder.

I think I would’ve watch that movie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
