What is the "Title" of your tape?

There's a tool that's often used to help to ground ourselves when we're looking at people who are normies and they're sitting there drinking their drinks and having an enjoyable time. We long for that. That is.....until we use the mentioned tool which is "playing out the tape". It's a way to get you to be mindful and realistic that there are people out there that can do that but what about you? If you put yourself in that seat with a drink in your hand what happens next? Most of us know it's not pretty. In fact, it's absolutely horrific and never ends well. By doing this you give yourself a good reminder of exactly why you can't sit in that seat and drink that drink.

Mine is definitely a horror flick. It's called "Night of the Demon"

What's yours?

Would have to say "losing everything". The end of my tape is always my daughter disappointed and kicking my butt to the curb! And the look of devastation on it while she is doing it.

Hmmm, I think I've seen that movie too LadyinBC.

Almost strange giving it a name, it takes on a life of it's own. The next time someone invites me out to drink I'll have to tell them no because I have a movie to go watch.

"Hazing in Hell"...yes this is a movie I had a small part in back in 1988! They changed the movie to Pledge Night when it was released later...actually my version would be "Hazy in Hell."
This a great thread!

"Risk, Bruises, and Lies"

Critics claim this in-depth look at the crumbling decline of a man's once promising night on the town becomes tiresome, and the whole thing lasts entirely too long. Even the dashing good looks and charisma of the lead actor - the talented and versatile bigsombrero - can't save this film. Two thumbs down.
