"The Family Man" is an example of a movie that is way better than it has any right to be.
This movie should be terrible, and it somehow balances remarkably well. It's like watching one of those fools who walks the perimeter of a skyscraper just for the gram.
There should be at least a 2:1 ratio of peanut butter to jelly, but no more than a 4:1 ratio. The only exception to this rule is if one is using *two* end pieces of bread (rare, obvi) and even then, jelly should still not exceed 40%.
Grape jelly will always be the standard, but strawberry is permissible. Apricot and other variants are needlessly deviant and reflect an absence of stability.
Crunchy peanut butter is chaotic. Fancy pb is too fussy. Smooth, generic pb is the standard.
Donโt buy the fancy peanut butter from Trader Joeโs, Whole Foods, etc. Yes, it is healthier, but youโre making a damn PB&J. Youโre already rolling the dice with your cholesterol; you might as well have the fatty shit and enjoy life a bit.
Sorry, not to be an asshole, how do you remake Whitney Houston's performance in this?
I'm not necessarily opposed to "reimaginings", but sometimes, with some originals, ya gotta leave it alone.
I'm lucky to have grown up in an era of movies where there was so much originality and verve in big studio projects. I feel like younger folks are getting the short end of the stick with attempts at microwaving the movies we had.
My mother's side is from rural Kentucky. My father's side is from rural Oklahoma and Texas. I grew up in Central Texas trailer parks way out in the sticks.
And let me tell you: this comes across as incredibly condescending toward rural folks. Please don't parrot this nonsense.
Do rural families of all income levels have to get creative with sickness? Sure, maybe a cold medicine like Robitussin is used outside of its direct intent. But reasonable adults out in the country aren't taking animal drugs as a preventative measure. Please stop this.
You know what I'm really tired of? Journalists who didn't grow up in conservative areas holding people in those areas to an insulting level of adult awareness and then having the gall to pontificate about coastal elitism. Please shut the fuck up. I beg you.
