8 Bit Cinema: Guardians of the Galaxy
I really enjoyed Guardians of the Galaxy. Like, a lot. The parent feels, amazing comedy and incredible effects blew my mind. But some of us don’t have time to get to a theater, let alone spend more than two hours there. You’re in luck, time-poor parents. We found an 8-bit version and it’s phenomenal. Enjoy! […]
Grandma Pumps Iron
I don’t want to get into a pissing match here, and I don’t usually want to do that unless something is on fire, but this grandma could probably lift more weight than you. Meet Willie. She’s 77 years-old and powerlifting like it’s her job. This lady shovels her own snow, beats all of her competition […]
Scientist Shares Key To Saving The World
If you aren’t familiar with Neil DeGrasse Tyson, then you’re missing out on one of the most charismatic, philosophically succinct scientists of our era. He has single-handedly revived public interest in space exploration and science as a whole. Moreover, the guy has knack for putting things in perspective while demonstrating his vast knowledge. But this […]
The Diaper Changing Warzone
That first poop-filled diaper. It’s a doozy. It’s like a poop mitzvah. It separates the pros from the amateurs. I remember mine well. I feel like an aid worker on the beaches of Florida after the BP oil spill if the oil had been shot out of a human butt cannon. Those are magical times. […]
14 Years in Four Minutes
I saw Interstellar last weekend with Avara. Let’s just say it was a parade of feels and angst. The movie, without giving anything away, deals with some pretty intense concepts when it comes to space and time. And no, not in a Doc Emmett Brown 1.21 JIGGAWATTs kind of way. It’s stayed with me. The […]
BREAKING: Two Grown Men Act Like Children
I love when people come to this site for the first time. I wonder what they’re expecting when they step foot on the Dagobah-like grounds of HTBAD. What were they looking for exactly? How did they find us? Did they think we could help? If anything is certain, it’s that nothing is certain in parenting. […]
The Most Advanced Halloween Costume Ever
Sometimes I wish I had more definable skills when it came to crafts. Specifically, I wish I could make better costumes and props for my kids. I love playing with my boys, and Halloween is my favorite holiday. My costumes are usually “meh” unless I have help. I suck at it. So, I get to […]
What It’s Like Being A Parent: Part Seven
Last time, we described trying to get your kids to come home from the park. In other words, it’s basically insane. Today, let’s talk about having twins. Twins aren’t double the fun. They’re at least quadruple, based on all accounts. But imagine if they were sick. Trying get medicine and vitamins into kids is tough […]

Just Say “Good” To Strangers
Teaching kids about strangers is tricky business. Some strangers are police officers or emergency workers. Others are dangerous villains looking to do our kids harm. How do we differentiate and teach our kids to do the same? One mother in Korea decided to instruct her daughter on the best way to deal with strangers. The […]
