★★★★ · to dab your mouth with · Spuzz · 2015-07-24

Fun film that teaches the young uns how to present yourself at the Dinner Table. Typical how-to etiquette is presented, nothing too out of the ordinary.. I like how the sponsor of the film, Kimberly-Clark, made damn sure a paper towel / kleenex was in every scene :))) Highly reccomended!

A teenage gringo boy working? Isn't that child abuse? Should we call in the authorities? That boy should be home, undisturbed, allowed to "entertaini himself" on those, ya know "internet sites" [ahem]; not out working in a grocery store - stacking Kimberly Clark products no less. Talk about a distant past fantasy. This film is a keeper. For many reasons. A white teenage boy actually working, and then a look at a restaurant menu with a prime rib, like $3.35 a la carte. (Thank you. I'll have two). The chick declines garlic in the salad dressing. Ha ha! If you're old enough, you remember when…
