I LOVE this movie, & would like to hear the funny lessons you learned from Life as a House. Here's what I learned:

1. You must have a door between where you cook & where you take a dump.

2. It's hard jacking off in an armoire.

3. When you're trying to get through to your rebellious son, jump off a cliff into the ocean. (It gives dad "cred.")

4. It's OK to kiss your mom's x-boyfriend & boyfriend's dad as long as he's passing out on pain meds.

5. Stepdads disappear from bedrooms after fighting with their wives.

6. Cabo is better than going down on townfolk.

7. Paula Cole is not a vertical kisser. (???)

8. If all we're talking about is 6 inches, we really don't need lawyers. Do we?

9. George kissed his son's hair before it was blue.

10. If a teenage boy showering with a girl has an erection, chances are he's not homosexual.

11. If said teenage boy can't control his load, he is scrubbing the shower.

12. Robin looks like Skelator, but George is the one who's too thin.

13. George hates his father, but loved him too much to kill him.

14. You'll want to leave the room when Sam takes a dump. Just ask his brothers.

15. If your son tears down a clothes bar while masturbating and getting a cheap spray paint huff/hanging himself high, don't mention it. Just tell him to wash the mascara off his face.

16. Sunscreen feels different when a girl puts it on, instead of your mom or dad.

17. George doesn't train his dog to urinate on Dokos' lawn. He just likes it.

18. Mr. Burke is a great architect, and a miserable human being.

19. George isn't even a fvcking architect, but is still a miserable human being.

20. George thinks Robin is the most beautiful woman he has ever known. He even thinks her anger is perfect.

21. It's totally reasonable to tear down an old shack right on the edge of a dangerous cliff and replace it with an expensive, custom-built house, then give it to your messed up 16 year-old kid.
