“I sawSevenwith my mom once, not knowing the subject matter ahead of time.
The ‘lust’ part was particularly awkward.”

“I love getting movie recommendations from Reddit.
We all love psychological thrillers.
Reddit recommendedRequiem for a Dream.
I chose that for a family movie night with the teens.
I talked it up so much because of everyone who raved about it.
Lesson learned to always double-check Reddit recommendations to not traumatize family”

“Theres Something About Mary.
When Ben Stiller was jrking off and got jzz on his ear.
That was really awkward around the family.
Funny scene, though, except I couldnt laugh.

23.The one that got me twice was Monty Python’sThe Meaning of Life.
Specifically the John Cleese sex ed scene.
Sat through it once with my parents and again years later with my own kids.
Ironically, it’s excellent sex ed!

24.The Human Centipede.
I saw it not knowing anything other than it was a ‘horror’ movie.
Still one of the biggest mistakes of my life.
