I read a great blog post last week over on Katy Widrick’s site that was inspired by Rachel Wilkerson. It’s time to stop feeling guilty and to start owning my thoughts and decisions.
Welcome to the First Edition of Sorry I’m Not Sorry.
Last week the wifey and I watched Bridesmaids. Definitely not very funny and definitely overrated. I can’t believe people compared it to The Hangover! You feel bad for the main character the whole movie. Also, there were just a lot of awkward and overdone-trying-to-be-funny scenes (i.e. the engagement party speeches scene and the doing crazy car tricks in front of the cop scene). I’ve seen plenty of what are considered by most to be “girl movies” with the wifey and I’ve found them funny as well as enjoyable enough to definitely watch again. So it’s not that I’m a guy and don’t get it. The movie just sucked. Sorry I’m not sorry.
I’ve tried tofu cheese before and other than having a medical reason not to eat regular cheese, why would you voluntarily eat that mess? It’s gross! Sorry I’m not sorry.
If someone posts nothing but political or religious posts all of the time on Facebook. I hide all posts from that person. I don’t want to “unfriend” them because hey, they are a friend for a reason. I just don’t believe in political or religious views being pushed on people. Sorry I’m not sorry. (Inspired by one of Katy’s.)
We vaccinate our son. Don’t preach to me about the supposed “proven” theories. Here’s a theory, I would rather vaccinate my son than not have him around at all. You can choose to not vaccinate your child, but our children are never playing together. Sorry I’m not sorry. (Inspired by Michelle’s awesome blog post.)
When I’m at a playground or a splash park with my toddler son and your much older child gets in my son’s face acting crazy or purposely knocks him over, how about actually being a parent, keep an eye on their activity and explain to them why what they are doing is wrong. I don’t ever want to say anything to the child because they usually don’t know better but it would be nice if their parent(s) helped out. Yes, parenting is challenging but not impossible. People that don’t make an effort, shouldn’t be allowed to reproduce. Sorry I’m not sorry.
What are you not sorry about?

Wellll, now that you mention #1. I hated The Hangover and think it was as overrated as you think Bridesmaids is. SINS.
Did you TDOTM last night?

Then you have to agree on your other side of the spectrum that neither movie should be compared to each other. Movie critics shouldn’t exist.
No, we watched Star Wars but I am probably going to pick it up tomorrow night to watch on Tuesday night. However, I am thinking of trying one of the TDOTM’s that I came up with yesterday.
