The Terminator. I've always caught bits and pieces on cable, but I think this was only the second time I've watched the entire thing. On the other hand, I've seen Terminator 2 like a hundred times.
Me, too. It was my pick for family movie night on fredagsmys. Kids dug it.
They didn't know what "fag" meant, which was kind of cool.
Its a cigarette in England, and since smoking is bad for them, they should never repeat the word.
I visited London about 15 years ago and we were hanging with some locals at a bar. I pull out a Marlboro Light, and one of the locals points at me and says "Hey ya got an American fag there?" And I was like "WHAT?!?!?!" He explained how "fag" meant cigarette, and we all had a good laugh at my confusion.
In fact, let me rephrase my entire sentence with some of the English-speak I learned on that trip....
"I was on holiday in London some time ago and we were being chummy with some locals at a pub. I pull out a Marlboro Light, and a mate I just met says "Hey ya got an American fag there?" And I was like "You're insulting the wrong bloke, lad!"

One time on Facebook, a woman I know posted that she had been rear-ended while in traffic that day and her husband commented "I've never heard you complain before."

I'm partial to Pulp Fiction, but for my money, Q's best work was the True Romance script.

Just...wow.
It brought about deep feelings of sympathy, rage, connections, disbelief, and sorrow.
Not an easy watch for sure. I couldn’t do it in even three sittings.
