True Story...


My and I went and saw the Santa Clause 2 and it was so bad. On the car ride home we were both in a state of shock and decided it was best to block it from our memory. I have never seen a movie so bad that the car ride home was silent until someone says to just forget we ever saw it.

So a few months later it was on Pay Per View and my wife wanted to rent it. I was like, "Don't you remember how incredibly bad that movie was??" She was like, but we've never even seen it. I described the movie in great detail and pointed out the ridiculous points and she STILL didn't remember. She truely blocked it from her memory and gets angry at me for not letting her see it

So we still fight to this day about whether or not we've actually seen this movie, but trust me we did

that said..... I vow not to ever see this movie
