that 15 year old kid might say snakes on a plane is a classic. :nope:

or he might say that the "final destination" series is a classic.

when in fact.. as far as many of us might be concerned it is far from a classic.

sad really, the older i get, the more the things that mean something to me slip away into death or obscurity.
