Now don’t get me wrong, A Christmas Story is literally my favorite Christmas movie of all time. I watch(or listen to) it every year. There’s just this one little scene though that’s been bugging me ever since I was a little kid. I get that it’s supposed to be funny and I guess it kind of it. but the line kind of took root in my psyche when I was just a little kid and it’s never really let go. Do I want this part taken out of the movie? Of course not. Does it ruin the film? Not at all. It’s just one of those things that gets it hooks in ya and doesn’t’ let go. And if I’m going to be totally honest, it might actually be one of the reasons that I do what I do online. I do my best every day to break down the stereotype that blind people are helpless and living in a lowly state.
