She was a single mother with somewhat archaic ideas of what a boy should learn from his father, and as I had no father in the picture, she took the task upon herself.
It was a mixed bag. But she was sincerely trying her best out of parental love, and I didn’t turn out too fucked up, so mostly I look back on it with amusement.
Funny enough, long after she had stopped watching horror movies with me, I became very fond of horror movies. But now she, who I’m pretty sure saw every horror movie released 2000-2010, can’t stand horror.
In her golden years she moves in with you. The tvs in her room are just out of reach playing all of the 20teens horror movies, y’know the ones after a24 changed the game. The PA system trips whenever she starts shouting and an automated voice loops “I am strong now mother”
Or you know being kind and decent despite your history is cool too I guess.
I’m my experience the people that watch too many scary movies are the most scared of the world around them lol. they’re the ones that will hear a noise and assume it’s a killer or a ghost, rather than go see what the noise was.
Like, fuck, don’t you want to see the ghost? It’s all sparkly and floating and stuff! Think how much others would pay to see this that you get absolutely free! :-P
My mother used to make me watch scary movies with her to toughen me up.
Gave me nightmares for years.
PugMary sounds like a difficult woman to grow up with, sorry you had to go through that.

People are messy and doing their best, the best any of us can ever do is keep stepping up. Glad you’re doing well and glad you had her all the same.
Still sucks to even imagine growing up like that, but horror movies fuck me up as an adult, so I’m biased I guess.

Life develops in funny ways.
The curse transferred from her to you.
“You best start believin’ in horror movies, Mr. Pug… yer in one!”
