Make it a habit never to accept somebody's 'promises' or 'apologies.' One is a prelude to a Betrayal, the other is said as protocol while refusing to change their behavior.
@finalgirl_kiddo I'll admit when I saw "Terrifier 3" (2024), I hadn't seen "All Hallows Eve" (2013), so I wasn't prepared for Art The Clown going after kids. That's evil. He has to die. But I did laugh when he kept slapping Sienna when she was tied to the chair...
This is going to come off corny as hell but when our Middle and Highschool teachers told us "Reading is fundamental" back in the day, they knew what they were talking about. You might remember something from the 11th grade that might save your life decades later.
