My mother, a person that probably loves Jesus more than she loves me, put me on to Godfather part II when I was like 10. That was the day I realized parents are people too. It was also the day that I realized she was the homie for real
My mother’s two favorite films. Growing up she was always a lover of film but these two movies were her shit. It always confused me because she’s a die hard Christian that barely swears and is a Jesus Stan. The older I get tho, the more I realize she probably loves it because my mother is a master at mind games. Which makes a good gangster in my mind.
showed me crazy shit like all the original monty python at like age 6. because of him i saw andrei rublev at like 11 and that’s part of why i am the way i am but this scene attached really stuck w me. i my dad also very pious and would show us insane movies like kung pow! enter the fist and austin powers and airplane and the blues brothers but mute all the swear words. i didn’t know the name of fat bastards character until i was a teenager. i showed airplane at my 11th bday sleepover bc my parents didn’t remember the nudity or all the swearing in it. i also got totoro at the blockbuster when i was very little and it bothered my brother so id rent it every week and loved it and how quiet and somewhat eerie it was.i think the weird low brow comedy and slow strange art movies he made me watch gave me a breadth of appreciation for film.
Don’t be that person. Mf got a banana and a Celsius, something is going down and they need to make a quick exit. You got mad vegetables anyway, let the cashier breathe a little before they struggle to remember how to ring up them green onions you copping.
Nothing better than giving someone a little squeeze to show them you got them. It’s always great when someone can sense that you need it and add a little something to the hug. Don’t settle for a dap. Get in there.
I have no context at all but I love it. Feels like I’m missing out but that’s alright it’s just good to hear somebody having a big ol belly laugh and enjoying this shit while we’re breathing.
