my father is not, shall we say, culturally inclined...outside of country music, oldies rock, and a few tv shows he has no clue about the entertainment worldLoathedVermin72 wrote:i've heard this too, it's really weird. is it a midwestern thing?
the only time i ever recall him going to the theater was to see o brother where art thou...i'm also not sure he's ever read a book
when my mom watched a made for tv movie on the hallmark channel he would remark "that was a good show"
