There are also *still* 20-something fans of Monty Python.

I hear my older son and his peer group (20 somethings) making Python references.

My Son who is 19 and his peer group - "who is Monty Python?"

I'm playing the slow game in getting my kids into Python.  First they just liked how the intro song ended.  Now they love the Ministry of Silly Walks and Fish Slapping Dance.  I'm gonna continue with the wacky stuff and see how that goes.

My 14 year old nephew barely fanthoms how I went to school without an ipad. I don't expect him to know about 80s movies.

Oh? What does he use the iPad for?

I'll ask but He does 2 things, watch Netflix & research.

If he watches Netflix then he will pick up 80s movies stuff just by it being parodied and referenced in other shows and movies. But, as Oex says, it may take a few decades of consuming stuff.

Netflix Canada doesn't many old time movies compare to the USA one but it's possible.

Someone shared this eyerollingly on Twitter:

There's a point buried somewhere under all that vitriol.  Adults that go to Disney without kids are kinda weird.

Maybe but taking a three year old to Disney World is idiotic. I presume she has older children because otherwise WTF was she thinking? The kid will not even remember the trip. No wonder she had a miserable time.

I hope she doesn't harm her children. Ack.

I hope she was just exhausted and pissed off and lost her cool on Twitter and she is not normally that ragey. For the kid's sake.

My sister and I paid for our parents and ourselves to go to Disney World this past January for a family trip/40th anniversary present of their honeymoon trip to Disney World.  No children involved in the picture and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.  There is all manner of stuff to do that is adult friendly if not adult oriented especially in EPCOT.  The families with little kids look like they're having hellish times and all for something that most likely the youngest of kids won't even remember.  Fuck that and give me another drink in my alcohol infused journey around the world, please! :)

My wife had not been to Disneyland as a kid and after a few years after we were married I took her on a surprise trip.  It was great fun.
