So true, put this on a tea cup!

THE BEST

A classmate of mine from elementary school is a professional voleyball player. She traveled the world, played for teams in Europe, Middle east and Asia. Eventually she settled in the exact same village as me on the completely oposite side of the country from where we grew up. I didn’t even know until my wife told me that one of our neighbours was born in the same town as me

Big if true!

When it comes to Christmas movies my most favorite ones are:

• Joulutarina (Finnish)
• Listy do M (Polish)

I know what you mean and in a way it’s almost insulting. Like there are nations who trully love certain sports and they take it as part of their national pride … and then there is US. Where you wonder “why are you guys even here? Why are you taking fun from people who enjoy this game? What do you even take from this?”

Where I live we have the same situation with ice hockey - our entire nation basically stops for IIHF world hockey championship, everyone watches it and we celebrate every win. And then there is US. Which regularly wins some medal and you have a feeling that no one in the US even notices.

That’s how you get maggots

Nice but you should’ve used a different movie. I mean the Gladiator premiere was like yesterday, must have been few years ago max, am I right?

Yes where I live, we use cm usually. Also height is almost always measured without shoes

I was recently thinking - is this like a real thing? Or is it more like a joke since cucumber looks the way it looks?

It’s not sad. I’m jealous

Holy moly, and I was thinking about buying a parrot to my daughter …

Sigh … can you people tell me what is your “idea of life”? Like what do you think a persons’ life should look like?

I mean for a moment lets imagine that you’re the only one on earth, everyone just disapeared. Your life will be pretty hard do you realize that? It’ll be a constant survival, gathering food, clean water, being warm, preparing for weather catastrophes, animal attacks, insects, diseases, etc. You’ll be constantly on edge whether you survive to the next day, week, year. The reason you don’t have to deal with shit like that is that we have sort of functioning society where everyone takes a part, everyone specializes at something and together we achieve more and make your life super easy.

So with this in mind, back to the original question - how do you imagine your existence? Sitting down on your ass? Travel? How? Having a family? How do you feed them? Do you want them to be in constant survival mode?

Or if you like this then go. Really. Go to the woods and enjoy your life.

Or is this somehow supposed to be criticism of 9-5 office job for some billionaire? If yes then this is laughably shallow view of jobs and a society as a whole. Whith shit like this you literally shit on eneryone who does our society a better place.

Ok that explains a lot actually :D Because this is one of my main problems with the film, have you noticed how many people Elsa tries to murder? And not like by accident, murder on purpose, in anger but on purpose! Including Anna, that snow troll would for sure murder her if it wouldn’t be for Hans

I guess you’re right, I’m looking at it too much with my “adult eyes”. But yeah, when looking at it this way it’s just … bad, like really, from every angle - premise, plot, characters and their motivation, … I have a really hard time to finish it when my daughters watch it.

And I know people say “it’s just a Disney fairytale” but so is f.e. Tangled and it handled all those points perfectly. And yet the Frozen is the all-time-hit and not Tangled. But as you said, it’s aimed at little girls and not grumpy old man like me :) And from that point it did a perfect job obviously.

PS Moana is just amazing and “You’re welcome” is one of my most fovorite songs of all time! :)

By far imo. To this day I don’t understand the popularity of Frozen. Maybe because there are 2 princesses?
