Movie love isn't like real life love either, is it? Not to mention apartment rentals and wardrobes.
But movie fighting is exactly like real fighting, right?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

It is just like Midol + codeine, as in it has 50mg of caffeine per tablet.
My lord. It's the world's most perfect drug.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Kids are also more likely to see real life love, financial stuff, and fighting than sex.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It is the way I do it...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I think all my porn watching has been post-virginity.

touche, ita. I've hardly ever seen anything I've experienced reflected in film, ever, and I...wait, bad example.

Pretty much zero from me on all of the above until it was time for me to get started with each (well, still fallen behind on one).
Hell, I've only seen one intent-to-kill fight (and that's maybe not so much intent-to-kill as don't-care-if-he-dies). I never knew how much money got you how much house, or any clear exposure to what seems to be standard coupley-closeness (my parents have their own way, which has worked just fine lo these 40 years).
And I really think that fictional love is more insidious and confusing than fictional sex.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Heh. Not *my* brain, silly! More like the stereotype of the college boy who is all "I am MAN! See my 15-foot COCK TREE!!! See me get off in 90 seconds!!!" Which isn't as impressive as they seem to think it is.
