Love it or hate it, you have an opinion on South Park one way or the other! Personally, I believe South Park to have contributed to the degradation of society in general. The hubbs loves it. I can’t believe I love this man! I can’t begrudge him, I’m sure there are things he just doesn’t believe that I don’t love. Just goes to show you, you don’t have to love the same things to be a great couple.
One of my best girlfriends loves to garden. I mean she’s would totally trample Martha Stewart. Sitting in that yard in the summertime, with the (I shit you not) koi pond waterfall gently falling, having a smoke, you seriously think you’re in heaven. I’ve never seen her husband in the garden, not once, to actually garden. Maybe ONCE for like three seconds to say hello. He loves to work on cars and golf. Lori will not be found under a car. Sorry, not gonna happen. She’s gone golfing a few times, but usually she’d just as soon stay in her garden. Who can blame her? They are a great couple. I’ve written about them before, but they seriously make me jealous.
So, can he hate South Park and I still believe it has led to the degradation of modern society? Hell yeah! Sidebar: This is how I had referred to South Park years before I met the hubbs. He gets jokes I don’t. Oh well. I don’t feel like I’m missing out. Besides, who wants to be in a couple with one brain. Seriously those folks are crazy annoying. It can work if you are different. I think it works better when you are a little different. My son has just gotten married to someone who had a different upbringing than he did, is from a different culture, introducing him to new things and I think how lucky he is! I’m excited for him to expand his world view.
As far as the hubbs and myself, our first date was to a hockey game.Backstory- I’m not a “sports” gal. I didn’t play them and I didn’t date jocks. I danced and took tae kwon do. Not exactly the cool stuff. I loved it. I had never been to a hockey game. It was so neat because I immediately knew he would take me out of my comfort zone and that I wanted more of that.
Be different- Don’t worry- We need more of that. And here’s to hoping I never have to use Cartman in a tag again….

The Self-Actualized Life 
When I met my hubby he was into scuba diving and skiing and I couldn’t even swim. He was into hockey, I definitely wasn’t. But it didn’t stop us being a great couple. Oh, and I loath South Park. Actually we both do!

We should talk… this raises many questions for me. How many episodes have you watched? Can you put your finger on exactly what it is that you don’t like about the show? They take on ALL of the “sacred cows” so eventually they will offend everyone. I would think this show would do what hubby does for you, take you out of your comfort zone. The story of Chef (Isaac Hayes) and his parting with the show is a great example of someone involved until his sacred cow was attacked. I think they go too far, too often; but I love it. If you accept that they are speaking with the voice of 3rd or 4th graders then the language they use must be unrefined; and not politically correct. They blurt out their opinions in a direct and offensive manner. As a Jewish person every time Cartman says almost anything to Kyle you have to hate it! And yet sadly this does reflect a segment of society. They put it right out there in our faces; not to be hidden or pushed under the rug.
As far as the opposites attract or tolerating differences I think you have a more mature viewpoint than most people who get married. Most people are intolerant. Eventually I get to severa posts that share tools I developed as a therapist to help couples through such issues. There should be a pre-test for marriage and I’m just the guy to write it (I’ll collaborate too). Along with tolerance and acceptance I’ve found that mutual growth is an important factor in preserving a happy marriage. Both need to grow; or not grow.
Thanks fo the spark!

I don’t offend easily and it’s not that I’m offended….I believe it has everything to do with the dumbing down of society. That’s a problem for me
