My father worked in profanity the way other artists might work in oils or clay. 

In the heat of battle, my father wove a tapestry of obsenity that as far as we know, is still hanging in space over Lake Michigan.

Probably the GOAT Christmas film. 
 

The closing shot with the Old Man and Mother Parker drinking wine is perfect. 

This year it's seem to come into vogue to say it's the most overrated Christmas movie. I don't think so at all but heard several people in media throwing it around when never heard that before

Only one thing in the world could’ve dragged me away from the soft glow of electric sex gleaming in the window.

There are more dumb motherfuckers who have no business in “media,” offering dumbass opinions now, too. Direct correlation.

Fun/weird fact: a Christmas Story’s director Bob Clark also directed another “iconic” Christmas movie….albeit on the other end of the Christmas spectrum: 1974’s Black Christmas, which was one of the earliest American slasher films.

Also, my family watches A Christmas Story while eating Pei Wei every Christmas Eve. How original, eh?

I'm on the part where they're changing the tire. Gotta say, massive dick move by the dad. I only have a teenage girl in the house but if I had a boy, or hell if the girl had said fuck like that at his age, no way I tell the wife and get her all worked up. I just tell him/her we're gonna talk about it later. Some things a dad just has to do himself.

The thing you don't understand is for all his bluster, Dad is a softie. No way he could dole out punishment to Ralphie, so he pawns the job off on Mom.

If you’re in Austin today and want to get out of the house with the kids.   Head to 32nd & Lafayette Street, house at the NW corner.  
 

The old man would tear up, it’s so beautiful.

Sounds like a MAJOR attraction.

The dad looking like a kid again when Ralphie unwraps the rifle is the part that resonates with me now as a parent. Such massive joy for a man beaten down the entire movie.

It was one of the best scenes in the movie, right as Ralphie had resigned himself to the fact that he wasn’t getting the Christmas present of his dreams, and was putting on a good face about it.

I always wondered if script writer had the name Scut Farkus first and casting found this God forsaken ugly ginger kid that matched the name perfectly, or if they had another name but once they found this kid they said nah he's a Scut Farkus

Similar behind the scenes question when ralphie gets absolutely destroyed by the snowball walking home. Did somebody on set actually throw that? It was so damn perfect and seemingly dangerous.

In our world you were either a bully, a toadie, or one of the nameless rabble of victims.

Just now seeing this thread, but posted in the old one that I watched it with my 6 year old this year and was the first time she's watched it.  She loved it and wants to watch it every year now.
