He is lonely and old so acting out like a little boy.
What I don't get, especially as I just had a brush with death or vegetableism due to a defective stent on Thursday is why some guys, nearing the end of their life, double down on being lightweight arseholes. (I am still under 50 so I'll come to maturity soon).
You would think Pascal's wager would give them some notions of going out with a little class.
I also don't like last superhero films. But when I was watching first spider man I liked it. Maybe because I was a child.
I still like some "childish" things - like slap-stick, like video games, like riding my bike for fun, etc.
But other stuff I just dumped - like skipping, like anything to do with super-heroes or zombies, or like strange lands accessed through a wardrobe.
There isn't any way to rationalise keeping some and dumping others. Except that I like the ones I kept and the ones I dumped I think are dumb.
ok. Porn is not in the list.
