What movie, if any, most closely resembles your life? Feel free to combine a few too if you...

The one that most resembled my childhood was “The Amityville Horror”. I’m not talking about the supernatural elements at all, though. My parents bought an old farmhouse in late 1978 that was too much house for them. My dad had a couple of mental breakdowns that ended up with us fleeing the house while he was wielding knives and threatening to kill us, which was like when James Brolin lost his 💩 and went after the family in the movie. As a kicker, my dad looked a lot like James Brolin in 1979 when this all went down. Bonus points for my parents taking us to the drive-in to see “The Amityville Horror” at the drive-in that summer. We were absolutely terrified and traumatized by that movie and all that was happening in our little world at the time.

The Proposal (2009) is a romantic comedy about Margaret Tate, a tough and intimidating Canadian-born editor in New York, who faces deportation due to an expired visa. To save her career, she coerces her long-suffering assistant, Andrew Paxton, into a sham engagement. Margaret is all business and shows no interest in Andrew beyond the arrangement, but during a trip to his hometown in Alaska to convince his family, Andrew’s genuine kindness, wit, and persistence begin to break down her icy exterior. What starts as a calculated scheme slowly turns into an unexpected romance, filled with humor, awkward situations, and heartfelt moments. I’m just like Andrew.

Ouch...to say the least. You had THAT kind of instructor?

Im sorry from the rest of humanity.

My life resembles music actually. "Walking in my Shoes" by Depeche Mode and "Head like a Hole" by NIN are the two that seem to be my theme songs.

A Beautiful Mind
Girl, Interrupted

I lay no claim to genius, just enough intelligence to have gone so much further had I not been stopped in my tracks by mental illness.
