Woot, Sunday movie! I had such a day of accomplishments yesterday, got groceries and hung a picture and all kinds of things, and now it is lovely to just have a nice sloooooooooooooow morning.
Double XXL
It’s on Netflix, it looks fun, it has Sonakshi and we love her.
At 7:30am Chicago time, I will put up an “and PLAY” comment and then we will all comment along from there.

“Hardened up,” oh my! I’m certain I have horribly tender ears. If I venture out as far as the mailbox or compost pile without a mitznefet on, I’m reminded that “normal” people go around bareheaded in all kinds of weather and aren’t bothered by it.

Yeah, it’s more the formal poetic rhythm of the song I was catching. So for a dude who is all casual and slangy usually, to switch to formal and poetic is a BIG statement.

My impression is that it’s kind of a spectrum of vocabulary. “Ijaazat” itself feels like a very “Urdu” word to me, e.g., even though the surrounding grammar isn’t really a change from the dialogue we were hearing just before.
