So I warn my wife the other day: Let's do something you like this weekend, because I'll be obligated to watch college football for the next several months. She understands, mostly.
Anyhow, she decides it's time to look for an area rug, so we're off to Tulsa in the search of a rug. Good times. What about catching a movie? Online, I find info about a new release called "You're Next". It looked pretty cool with the promise of much violence. The problem was it is labeled "Horror/Thriller".
I tell my wife a little about the plot of the movie and call it a "suspense" movie. She acts interested. Hey, this day might not be so bad after all.
A little bit later, I'm headed to the shower, my wife is checking Facebook, we're talking about what clothes to wear, because sometimes theaters are too cold for shorts. Son perks up. "What are you going to see?" Wife answers:"Oh something your Dad read about, I think it's called "You're Next". Son: "Is that a horror flick?"
Instantly the expression on my wife's face changes, now she is greatly concerned and looks at me..."No, no", I tell her, "It's a suspense movie!" Too late. She's already pulling it up on IMDB. She sees Horror/Thriller.
Looks like I have a couple more hours too look for rugs. If looks could kill my son would be a corpse. He is amused.<sigh>
