I don't find the concept of an open relationship with a parent to be skeevish.
I think that's the issue, though, and part of what is so skeevishly painful about it. He uses the words "You know you can say anything to me" like a weapon. When Diane tells her father she's slept with Lloyd, it didn't feel like a natural sharing -- he guilted her into it. And then, of course, she discovers that he's been to lying to her all along.

Not enough Word in the world.
See, I think Dirty Dancing is incredibly cheesy (once again, the power of DANCE has saved the day!), but it's like my kryptonite. If I flip past it on cable, I am compelled to watch it through to the cheesy end.
Tep is me. Except for the Duckie thing.
I mean, yes, I have been Duckie, but I still growl at the thought of him.
okay, first. . . WOLVERINES!!!! (I have often thought that if I ever had to have a spontaneous battle cry, that's what would come out. Also, for some reason, I love the line, in abad Russian accent "vat is a volverine? It is ze local sports collective"
Lost Boys is the movie that really ignited the vamp love (though I do have an unhealthy love for Love at First Bite with George Hamilton)
Love at First Bite.
Sigh.
Love at First Bite.
OMG, yes. Jim Carrey before. Just...before.
