    Is that “Daniel-son” from The Karate Kid?

    No. Daniel-son from Karate Kid is Johnny Cade from the Outsiders.

    Any good? What is it about (no spoilers please)?

    One of the best of all time. Have a look for yourself.

    I remember reading the book as a kid and I really liked it. Then as soon as I started the movie I realized I was pronouncing Socs wrong in my head the whole time and I couldn't watch the movie.

    Don't tell me how they pronounce it, I read the book a buncha times but have never seen the movie

    Don't scroll up...or down

    Lol. The little things eh?

    I couldn't get past it lol

    I can’t get over the fact that Ralph Macchio was in others films beside The Karate Kid franchise. Thought he disappeared from the acting scene after KK.

    Also I can’t believe that he is 57 years old.

    You're still mostly correct. Outsiders came first.

    You both are forgetting Karate Kid 2 & 3 and My Cousin Vinny.

    Also the new 2018 TV show Cobra Kai: Decades after their 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament bout, a middle-aged Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence find themselves martial-arts rivals again.

    Technically I said the Karate Kid franchise ;)

    What’s Cobra Kai like? Any good?

    It is soooooo good. Seriously if you liked Karate Kid you’ll love it. Don’t let it being on YouTube throw you it’s top notch. Johnny is this sad anti hero and you get his back story. There’s also this weird social commentary on how we’ve made kids over sensitive and how maybe Cobra Kai is right. I can’t describe it and I can’t say enough about it. I was really surprised how great it was.

    Never ever get married!

    I used to think this, but marry someone you actually know is a better one for me

    Life will get much tougher, but you will get through it and learn through it.

    Stop trying to please everyone else and start figuring out what makes you happy instead.

    Your gut was usually right, dont always listen to your "elders", their advice (and values) don't always translate to your generation.

    P.S. Buy apple

    That thing you found in your mams pocket isn't lemon juice.
    Its some sort of corrosive cleaner that she put into a lemon squeezy bottle, possibly stolen from work.
    Don't not try and taste it! It will ruin your whole day.

    Get something custom. Don’t choose one off the wall.

    I’d tell younger me at just about every stage not to wish my life away. Yes, whatever it is seems hard now, but time already goes too fast and wishing things to happen quicker doesn’t do any good and may even cause regret when you’re a little older looking back. For example, wishing that sweet little baby would grow out of spitting up all over you all the time did not make him stop and now I miss that stage.
    Unfortunately, younger me will not listen. Even current me has to remind herself of this advice almost daily.

    Get used to it, it will be like that for the majority of your life.

    Don’t bother running away,
    you only stay in Houston for a week then they haul your *** home anyway.
    Besides, you marry him and have a great kid and a long marriage.

    “Quit accidentally killing geese with your face” is what I think I’d need to say to myself
