Mercury Rising: horrible, stupid portrayal of autistic kid.
LF movie depicting a person with a disability.
Freaks - not because of the freaks, but because they can’t act
least favorite time you did laundry
When our water pump went in the middle of a load, and I had to finish it by wringing it, then pouring jugs of water from Walmart into the washer to rinse it. I could have taken it to the laundromat, wet, just to rinse it, but our dryer still worked, and we had the jugs, so the water was cheap, and I had a baby, and it was easier to manage a baby while buying bottles of water at Walmart, than while at a laundromat.
Turned out the reset switch on the pump was bad (which was why hitting it didn’t help, and priming the pump wasn’t the problem). But the new switch cost $29.00, and we replaced it ourselves.
Least favorite conversation you ever had with your parents.
When my mom wanted to get family pictures taken of us on very short notice, and I was in a crappy mood. I acted like a jerk that day and still regret it.
LF conversation with your SO?
Not sure if it would be the “least favorite” per se, but it’s nominally on topic and of very recent vintage, so here it goes…
I just found out last week that my Mother, 84, had been married before, for about a year 2 years before she met my dad. I was utterly flabbergasted, esp. since he (deceased) knew, and had told my sister too one night years ago when he was drunk.
Most shocking family revelation from wayyy out of left field…
My paranoid brother thinking his neighbor stole his Christmas decorations, slashed his blue jean jacket, and poisoned his Juniper tree
Least favorite family gathering
The first one after my aunt’s mother died, and she spent most of it in the bathroom crying, and stuff wasn’t getting done, and then we realized, guiltily, that my aunt always did 80% of the work at family gatherings.
New topic plz Rivkah
Seems to be offline right now.
Least favorite dating experience
Getting completely stood up without so much as a phone call or implausible excuse.
Least favorite percussion instrument
Anvil
Least favorite string instrument
Viola.
Least favorite woodwind instrument?
Clarinet. Some are played well, but too often they just sound screechy to me.
LF brass instrument?
Valve Trombone. The whole point of the Trombone is that it has a slide. If you want to play valves, play a Euphonium or Baritone. (Yes, I know all three have slightly different sound, particularly when comparing the conically-bored Euphonium to the cylindrically-bored Baritone and Trombone, but still…)
Least favorite of the Seven Samurai.
Katsushirō Okamoto - the man baby of the group
least favorite place to go bowling
The place they took us to in high school. We had to bowl there.
Least Favorite baseball team.
Same as everyone else. Everyone hates the Yankees.
Least favorite gas station
Vineland Shell in Orlando. Typically charges over $6/gallon to entrap unwitting people (and/or ignorant immigrants) returning rental cars after visiting the various theme parks.
Least fave roller coaster/thrill ride
The roller coaster in Gorky Park. You could nap on it.
Least favorite character on L&O: SVU.
ADA Cabot’s harpy bitch of a boss, don’t remember her name. Every line she says is a variation of “I’m going to destroy whatever you have planned because I’m a cunt.”
Least favorite typo you always make, no matter how much you resolve never to do it again
