I’m talking about color film being common. Is that more recent?

>(especially considering this was like mid-1900s?)
Somehow, it's both a century before you think and a lot more recent than you think.

How can you possibly disagree with that statement? I feel like that's one of the coldest most agreeable takes I’v heard on this website. Regardless of what their personal experience might be.

Look, I’m not saying they shouted “witch” and burned them at the stake (especially considering this was like mid-1900s?) but they’d be freaked out. Hell, people still believe in ghosts now and a good bit of that is still from camera stuff

This is a horrible take based on your own personal experience
Edit: this was meant to be a comment on the original post, not a response to that comment..my bad.

For future reference, the sex scene in The Lion King between Simba and Nala is about 53 minutes into the movie.

Maybe you should re-read what I wrote as I literally say that hitting a child is wrong. You are what's wrong with Reddit.

Technically, the universe will have run out of energy in a few bagillion years, and the exponential expansion of the universe will stretch even protons to the point where existence itself is unfeasible.

That's an absolutely fucked thing to say to someone who was beaten as a kid.
And I strongly disagree with your suggestion that hitting a child is a less-effective form of discipline. Beating a child does not get your point across at all, unless your point is that you are an abusive person, not safe to be around.

Nah, being born is not a choice an individual can make for themself. It can be a choice others make...
That aside, everything in between is a choice.

This is painfully true. I've had two girlfriends say I didn't do much in our relationship. So I sat down and wrote out everything I did for them. Both told me to stop. I kept writing and left the list out. One used to stop and read it often. It was almost like she had to reassure herself that I did all these things for her.

I assumed someone saw red-eye in real life first and then tried to capture it.
