LOL, my closest relatives live halfway across the country, so thankfully that isnt an issue for me. But man, judging by the way my aunts and uncles are when they visit, that would be a nightmare!?

Well I live near a lot of my extended family so to avoid awkward conversations about politics or jobs we all pretty much silently agreed to only ever talk about media related things whenever theres a get-together so there have been times where like my aunt will ask someone if they saw a movie that she absolutely loved and if they say no we'd all have to drop everything and go to the theater which has become a tradition every Christmas for my family?

Ah dude, yeah that's exactly what I do, I binge watch so much stuff... the most cheeseball TV show I watched was Farscape, hahaha! the DC shows are quite bad as well but I still somehow enjoy them.

I'll look into Newhart and I do remember Taxi but never got a chance to really watch it, I have to try to fix that.

I have fond memories of Farscape! I never got to see the entire series, as I wound up cutting off my cable a while ago, since I was watching more content streaming and online, etc. But yea, itwas a pretty fun show.

Ive never felt harassed, but especially doing the whole social media / Youtube thing, it has certainly gotten my goat more times than I can count, to be out of the loop on some of that stuff. Mostly the big comic book movies, as those are what I really care about watching. And when I miss them, I wouldnt say Ive ever fell pray to pressure from others, but the pressure I put on myself, and the resultant stress, because I couldnt be a part of that group discussion, that was, and sometimes still is, definitely not what I signed up for.

Man, that sucks... When I was dealing with the staph infection, the only thing I could really do was watch movies, tv shows, Youtube videos, etc. I actually marathoned the entire series of the sitcom Newhart, over the summer. And then the first few seasons of Taxi shows I remembered from my youth. Thatwasreally myonly respite, sometimes. It helps to just get lost in that stuff.

? Sorry to hear about that! I have a rare bone disease and my body just went down hill when I turned 26, so yeah action figures, movies and video games is all I can do to keep myself busy, haha.

Yeah I used to love going to the movies, skip class, go on weekends, run into friends, the theater used to be a very chill place. Nowadays I feel like social media is pressuring people to see every single movie that comes out, everyone wants to review them so they can tell everyone what they think and people feel like if they don't seea movie then they will beleft outor harassed if they don't have some sort of opinion.

Im sorry to hear that, man... I spent the majority of 2016, and some of 2017, bedridden, due to a massive staph infection that ravaged the hell out of my body, keeping me almost entirely debilitated. I definitely feel for you, there.

Im right there with you on that... I knew it was starting to get bad when I beganeagerly looking for the matinee prices that my grandparents used to insist upon. The last movie I saw in my one local theater was probably Winter Soldier. At least, thats the first onethat comes to mind. I mean, I wasnt even aware of the aspect of assigned seating until I saw a movie reviewer on Youtube mentioning that that was a thing now, lol. I used to long for trips to the movies, as a kid. And occasionally, the nostalgia for it will well up inside me again. But, Im much happier watching stuff at home. Even if thats only the basic DVDs.
