I felt much better afterwards, even though they gave me some grief for my transgression.<\/p>\n<p>While I feel good about taking this step with some people close to me, I don\u2019t know if I can bring myself to make the same admission here. With time, understanding and an opportunity to right this wrong, I might muster up the courage eventually.<\/p>\n<p>We had somehow fallen into an online discussion about television and movies. I would say I don\u2019t know how we ended up on the topic, but I know exactly how we did. We love television and movies.<\/p>\n<p>What I don\u2019t know is how the conversation pushed me to list the iconic American movies I have never seen. Trust me, it\u2019s quite a list. Luckily, a few people made me feel better about my admission by baring their movie-not-watching soul a little bit.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In this day and age, what you watch can sometimes define you. I make this mistake by sometimes even though I hate how haughty some people get when others don\u2019t share their tastes.<\/p>\n<p>Just the other day, my niece talked about how much she hated a comedy movie I really, really enjoyed last year. She and her husband couldn\u2019t even get past the first 30 minutes of the film.<\/p>\n<p>I had to hold back judgment on them because I wouldn\u2019t like it if the movies I have not seen made them find me morally deficient. For the record, I don\u2019t understand how they could not find the movie hysterical, but I\u2019ll get over it.<\/p>\n<p>When I looked at my list, I found one big explanation. I have known this about myself for a while and feel it justifies all my choices.<\/p>\n<p>I like to laugh. My list of missed opportunities contains mostly dramas because I just don\u2019t find myself drawn to dramatic productions regardless of how important other people tell me they are.<\/p>\n<p>We all have limited time to devote to entertainment. I would love to do nothing and watch every movie and TV show which helps inform our cultural identity, but then I wouldn\u2019t have enough time to solve each level of Angry Birds and take the occasional nap. Plus I might not laugh as much as I like to.<\/p>\n<p>But I don\u2019t want to wallow in my ignorance. I want to right this wrong even if I don\u2019t think not seeing a classic movie is really a wrong in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>I actually started this a couple of years ago when I dove feet first into the TV show \u201cMad Men.\u201d Now I\u2019m racing to finish watching the most recent season online before the new one starts later this month.<\/p>\n<p>As I have catalogued briefly on my blog, I also have devoted a bunch of time to \u201cFriday Night Lights,\u201d a TV show I can\u2019t believe I never gave a chance when it aired.<\/p>\n<p>This just scratches the surface though. I want to whittle down the list of movies I\u2019m almost embarrassed to say I only understand through quotes thrown around by other people. I want to see the context around those quotes.<\/p>\n<p>I just might not be able to help you if you\u2019re stuck on Angry Birds. I also might be tired if I can\u2019t squeeze in a nap. But those are the sacrifices I will make to fully succumb to peer pressure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I admitted a deep, dark secret to some friends the other day.
