Violence!!!

I heard someone mocking people who don't like foul language in movies. They said something like, they don't want the bad language, but will watch the violence. At first I thought it was hard to defend, but finally it came to me. The violence is fake. The language is real. As is the nudity. You know, a lot of people don't like a lot of things in a lot of movies. Why can't I not like bad language or nudity. We all have opinions. You keep yours. I'll keep mine.
P.S. May I recommend a good movie with no bad language or nudity. If you want a laugh watch, Mom's Night Out.

How to turn the world up side down. The world's a globe. It turns up side down every twenty-four hours. How to make your life better. Read a good book. Spend time with family and friends. Have a laugh. Hit a baseball. Look at a lovely painting. Learn a few words of another language. Find pieces of joy no matter how bad things are. Ice cream is always good no matter the weather. Hot chocolate is always good late at night, but only in winter. Old movies are the best. Critics don't know everything. Tah tah for now.
