Seriously? OMG! WTF?

I have to admit, I do not remember a lot about my JHS years. I try to block out that awkward part of my life. It was awkward for all of us. You are not a kid, you are not a full-blown teen and you are not an adult. Therefore, you act like you are all of them even though you are none of the above.

It is when you realize the World is not as innocent as you thought. Thus, you want to try dating, sex, drinking, smoking cigarettes and so on because everyone is telling you not to do it. It is a tough age for everyone, and even tougher for others. No matter how tough it is, you just keep moving forward and thankful that you have friends who are going through it with you.

That is what PEN15 on Hulu now is all about. Maya Erskine, 31, and Anna Konkle, 24, chose to go back to being 13 years old in seventh grade and relive those awful years for this show.

Maya and Anna are best friends and are looking forward to 7th grade, but that will change once they finally walk into their new school. Maya tried to cut her hair on her own and messes it up. Her strict mom decides to fix it by giving her a bowl cut. Anna tries to be cool by wearing a bra even though she does not have much to fill it out. Something their classmates will make fun of them about. And that is just the first day.

As the season goes on, they will experience crushes, first kisses, drinking, smoking, shaving, masturbating, fights, arguing with their parents, school dances, trying on a thong, divorce and so much more. They will experience what teens like them were going through in the year 2000. When AOL was just becoming a thing.

As I watched them be whiny and bratty, I thought to myself was I that bad? Then I thought, I have to show this to my friend who has a daughter close to that age. It will prepare him for what he is about to go through because it is an honest look at preteen girls. Then I will wonder why he is calling me to ask me to raise his daughter for a few years. As much as we have tried to prepare him for her teenage years, this show demonstrates everything we have told him about and then some.

Therefore, if you want to remember what it was like to be at that stage of your life, then watch PEN15 now. It might not be the stroll you want to take down memory lane, but it is one you will enjoy. PEN15 is also good to share with the people in your life who have kids under 14. It is a good way to prep them for their future hell.

When it comes to the actress playing characters much younger than they are, I did not realize they were much older until midway through the series. There is a scene where you are like, she has to be over 18 for them to show that. She is way over 13, yet you will believe she really is a new teen.

While other shows make being 13 look glamorous, this one shows as it is. Which is refreshing and surprisingly a good thing.

The Adult Entertainment world has found interesting ways to do pornody versions of big-screen movies, and there is one I never thought they would be able to do. That film is The Lego Movie, yet they found a way to do Laygo. It looks so weird, I do not know what to make of it. Yet, I want to see it.

Just when you though the most painful thing about Lego was stepping on one, turns out it is the second.

Talking about torture, I cannot wait to share this trailer with all of my friends who have kids who play with Lego. Just think of the image they will have in their minds whenever they see their children building something with those plastic blocks? The little things that make me happy!

UPDATE: I feel bad for the poor actors who had to have almost every part of their bodies painted yellow like Lego characters. Translation, I just watched the movie where everything is awe-awe-awesome!

Zac Efron might think he is invincible, but he found out he is not. While “shredding the gnar”, he tore his ACL. He opted to get surgery, so that he can come back better than ever. For now though, he is stuck in bed. Who wants to be his nursemaid as he gets better?

Nick Kroll’s animated show Big Mouth that is about teenagers going through puberty. Therefore, you might think he knows a lot about sex and is not a Caveman (does anyone get that reference) when it comes to the topic.

Conan O’Brien wanted to see just how much he knew, so they went to a high school in Burbank and taught sex ed to a bunch of students. How did they do? Conservatives would like to hire them to write a course on it because they make kids want to abstain from sex. At least that was the case for me.

Thankfully, the teens were smart enough to know that everything they were teaching them was wrong. To the boy who asked about flavor condoms. I like them because they make a guy taste good. Although, you have to taste them first to see if you like the flavor. My favorite is banana. What is yours? Oh and condoms are good, do not believe anyone who tells you otherwise.

I believe in abstinence-first until you are ready and not only. And use condoms! Can you tell I lectured people on safe sex for a while?

On Sunday, Julian Edelman was named MVP of the Super Bowl and all we saw was his beard. Today, on Ellen, she talks to The Patriots player about that big bushy thing. He reveals to her that the coach told him to put everything away at the beginning of the season. Therefore, he put his razor away and has not shaved in 9 months.

That is when Ellen DeGeneres told him that she will donate $10,000 to the Boys & Girls Club in his name if he lets her shave off that furry mess. Not only did he agree to do it, he matched her donation.

Then off the went to do it and off it went. When she was done, the MVP scored a touchdown in the looks department. Who knew such a good looking man was under all of that hair? I want to play baseball with the football player if you know what I mean!

Seriously though, I respect him so much for not only doing it but also for matching her donation without even being asked to do it. That show that he is as good of a person as he is a player.
