i was only about 9
I used to live in America, and one year my older brother had a football tournament in Sacramento to play in. It was kind of a big deal, as all these families took their kids to the state capital to stay in hotels and watch an under 14 football thing.

Anyway, first night we're there, the adults are making use of the "happy hour" in the hotel bar, the kids have all amassed in someone's room to watch a movie.

Being with a bunch of 13 year olds, they decided on a scary movie. One of the scariest of them all...

Predator 2.

I watched with them, cowering behind aa cushion. I woke up screaming that night. My mum asked me what was wrong. I told her about the film, which she was ok with (bad parenting right thwre). She asked what was scaring me...

The swearing.

I was not scared of this weird alien, hunting humams for sport, I was scared because they said shit and Fuck.

I was an odd kid. Guess that's why I'm here with you lot.
