Water usage is probably my biggest. Living in a high desert, my wife and MIL see no problem with filling one side of the sink with hot soapy water to wash a few dishes because “that’s just how I’ve always done it”, to watering the grass and plants for hours. All of this makes me mental.

The Sound of Music is not a Christmas movie.

My wife and her family and a whole bunch of Canadians all think it is and I am so flummoxed by it.

Is the first Rambo movie a Christmas movie?

I love that movie but it’s the first time I’m hearing it being referred to as a Christmas movie. Iirc there isn’t even any Christmas celebration in it?
