Things I have learned from the movies"

Having watched hundreds of movies, they have taught me many things that I would like to share with you today:

1. If being chased through town, you can usually take cover in a passing St Patrick's Day parade - at any time of the year.

2. All beds have special L-shaped top sheets that reach up to armpit level on a woman but only waist level on the man lying beside her.

3. All grocery shopping bags contain at least one stick of French bread.

4. Once applied, lipstick will never rub off - even while scuba diving.

5. The ventilation system of any building is a perfect hiding place. No one will ever think of looking for you in there and you can travel to any other part of the building without difficulty.

6. Should you wish to pass yourself off as a German officer, it will not be necessary to speak the language. A German accent will do.

7. The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window of any building in Paris.

8. A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds.

9. When paying for a taxi, never look at your wallet as you take out a note - just grab one at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare.

10. If you lose a hand, it will cause the stump of your arm to grow by 15cm.

11. Mothers routinely cook eggs, bacon and waffles for their family every morning, even though the husband and children never have time to eat them.

12. Cars and trucks that crash will almost always burst into flames.

13. A single match will be sufficient to light up a room the size of a football stadium.

14. Medieval peasants had perfect teeth.

15. All single women have a cat.

16. Any person waking from a nightmare will sit bolt upright and pant.

17. One man shooting at 20 men has a better chance of killing them all than 20 men firing at one.

18. Creepy music coming from a graveyard should always be closely investigated.

19. Most people keep a scrapbook of newspaper cuttings - especially if any of their family or friends has died in a strange boating accident.

20. It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessor.

21. During a very emotional confrontation, instead of facing the person you are speaking to, it is customary to stand behind them and talk to their back.

22. When you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in your room will still be clearly visible, just slightly bluish.

23. Dogs always know who's bad and will naturally bark at them.

24. When they are alone, all foreigners prefer to speak English to each other.

25. Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their arch-enemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gases, lasers and man eating sharks that will allow their captives at least 20 minutes to escape.

26. Having a job of any kind will make all fathers forget their son's eighth birthday.

27. All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off.

28. It is always possible to park directly outside the building you are visiting.

29. A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty.

30. If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps.

@mednasah_ Did my thesis on Konami and whether they were the masters of innovation or the retrograde… all evidence pointed to them ditching anything that cost dollar and embracing any and all methods of making money. As a company they are prolific in making bank. As the custodian of Pes…

In one picture… an entire lifetime is trapped between two dates. 💔🐾

Feb 5, 2010 — he was just a tiny puppy, small enough to fit inside your arms like a warm little promise. His eyes were bright, innocent, full of laughter and curiosity, as if the world was made only for running, playing, and being loved. 🥺✨

Then time did what time always does… it moved quietly, mercilessly, stealing moments without warning. Days became years. And the things you never thought would end… slowly started fading. His crazy zoomies. His fearless jumps. His happy bark at the door. The way he would run to you like you were his whole universe. 🕰️💭

Feb 5, 2026 — same home… same soul… but now his body carries the weight of every season he survived. His back is bent. His steps are slow. His face is covered in white, not from snow… but from years of loyalty. 🐕‍🦺🤍

And yet… look closer.

Behind those tired eyes is still the same puppy from 2010.
Still waiting. Still trusting. Still loving you with everything he has left. 🥀❤️

This isn’t just a dog aging.
This is a silent reminder that while we were busy living… he was busy staying.
Through every heartbreak. Every move. Every storm. Every day you came home tired and he still greeted you like you were the best thing that ever happened to him. 🏡✨

People say dogs don’t live long enough…
but maybe they live exactly long enough to teach us the hardest lesson of all:

Love doesn’t ask for forever… it only asks to be remembered. 💔🐾

So if you still have your dog… hold them tighter tonight.
Because one day, you’ll look at an old face full of gray…
and you’ll realize you didn’t just raise a dog…

You lived a whole lifetime with a best friend. 🥺❤️🐶
