Unusual rules you had to follow in your home or when visiting other people's homes

Here's Jason with my brother (props man) on the filming of "See". Jason, according to my brother, is a very nice guy. He doesn't forget those he works with, who aren't the big-wigs in the business.

that's good to know.. neither o/h or I..have ever worked with him..at least I don't think hubs has ever worked with him.. but we always appreciate the stars who don't forget who is responsible for making them sound and look good on screen..

personally, I think your brother is better looking..

Hols, Max will be thrilled you think he's better looking than Jason Momoa!

The Property Master, friend of my brother, whose book I just read, wrote about the filming of "See". He describes Jason as a "great big, affectionate kid".

Jason kept in touch with Max, even after the series moved from Vancouver to Toronto. He wanted Max to come out east, but he had to decline.

If your hubs ever gets to work with Jason, I think he will find him very down-to-earth.

that's why I don't find him attractive Pinks, because to me he looks like a kid.. his face looks like a youngster despite his body builder body...

Like I say the o/h may have worked with him .. I don't think so, but he was always surprising me with someone he worked with that I didn't know about, so it's possible.. and yes I really believe your brother is way better looking.. :D

One summer, oh so many years ago @WheatenLover I made it my goal to treat men like men treated women. Fun? Sure was!

You mean you opened car doors for them? Told them how pretty they were? Spent all your hard earned cash on them hoping to get a kiss? Told them "no, those pants don't make you look fat", and "yes, you're a fantastic cook". That's how you treated them?

Someone who appreciates and values and tries to help those he works with is incredibly good looking; it’s not about the mirrors.
 
Growing up we were not allowed to eat at my Dad's Mom's house/ Everyone else would go in the dining room and we had to sit in the living room even on Christmas..they would all come in the living room and give out the Christmas gifts but me and my sister never got anything. My Mom's mother died when I was only 4yrs old so I never really got to do anything at her house because my grandfather moved in with my Mother's oldest sister.
 
My dad was military. Rules, oh yeah, we had rules, but nothing strict. My dad kept a small American flag on a small table at the bottom of the steps. Every morning when my sisters and I came down the steps for breakfast before going to school, we had to stop and salute the flag. We didn’t have to stand at attention, but we had to stop. I still smile when I think about it.

actually further to that , my mother was very superstitious so we were not allowed to laugh in the house at all.. this is a the truth. She said it brought bad luck..''laugh before 11 cry before 7''... , so we never laughed , in case we got a hiding for bringing bad luck.... and the truth is.. I didn't know how to laugh as a child.. I had to learn how to when I grew up.. fact..

Probably don't want to get me started.

We had to ask "may I be excused" before leaving the dinner table. It wasn't to raise polite kids, it was all about control.

We couldn't wear shoes in the house and I don't either. Strangely. But! We also couldn't go barefoot. Had to wear slippers. I'm always barefoot at home unless it's cold. And I own no slippers, I utilize slipper socks.

Also if we were actually released from the yard, we had to "check in." Sometimes it was every 10 minutes. Control. Control. Control.

I wasn't able to join any groups ect. Of coarse I wanted to be in the Brownie's, Girl Scouts etc. It was the thing. I was allowed one meeting and then I noted my mother standing at the door backlit by the light like Dirty Harry in the Sudden Impact movie. Interestingly filmed in Santa Cruz. I walked over to her and she started berating me "what goes on here, I don't like what I'm seeing." What she didn't like was her possession interacting with other's and out of her control. I never was allowed to go back.
 
Remy... same, as you, sorry you went through it too..Complete control is right... we always had to ask ''May I leave the table'' sometimes it was no, so we'd have to sit there all night if we hadn't eaten our meal, or be served it up cold for breakfast.

Same, no bare feet but no shoes, we had to wear gym shoes indoors ..

Always told to be home at a certain time, but we weren't' allowed to have watches...and woe betide us if we were even 2 minutes late..

The landlord and his wife lived next door to us when we were kids. They were Jehovah Witnesses but they didn't bother anybody. They had a granddaughter that would come visit in the summer and I got to go over to play. I changed the radio station to rock and roll one day and I found out real quick the Mrs had a temper. The only music allowed in the house was the classical music station.

My stupid oldest brother is a JW. I guess they sucked him in. People with our background are prime targets. But the last time I ever saw him was 1985 and I've had no contact since. I did notice he still had all his 60's records like The Byrds, Buffalo Springfield, Neil Young etc. And he had a motorcycle. He's a jerk though.

That's outrageous! And cruel and abusive. It's like you were set up. :(

I have been reading and cannot respond with my contribution. Too upsetting.
But I spent many total overnights sitting at the table because I was being made to eat something that made me gag to look at.
