For example, I don’t like Will Ferrell in his typical roles. Oh they just drive me batty.

But. I do love Stranger Than Fiction. It’s such a cozy movie.

    He has a daughter with an ex (DNA confirmed) but since he hates the ex he refuses to meet the girl (she is like 6yo). There was a video doc about this and the poor little girl looks like him and it’s super cute. He pays child support but refuses to acknowledge her existence and if a reporter asks he refuses to answer.

    Any man that denies his own child is a horrible person.

      That’s sad. I’m a single dad who has maybe shouldered more than my share, to put it a little mildly, so it resonates. The optimist in me hopes there’s more to the story or that the kid is an unredeemable psychopath.

        At 6, it’s practically a guarantee. All kids are psychopaths until about 10.

        My cousin once stabbed me in the leg with a pair of scissors and thought it was hilarious.

          I have no expertise on anything, but neither of my two children have stabbed me, nor others I have been around, just in case the anecdotal evidence helps anything.
