Watched some of Home Alone the other day... how shitty are Kevin's parents that they let Uncle Frank and his cousins talk to him like that? I get that Kevin was kind of being a little jerk, but they were all treating him like shite all day.

- How did no one wake up before 8am
- in the first scene there are 10 pizzas for 15 people - 11 being children. Let’s do the math on the price and portions:

122.50 * 1.1162 (inflation) = 259.23 modern dollars

100 pieces = 6.7 slices a person

- the dad has no way home because the mom traded his first class ticket to the old couple (kids rode coach)
- the tickets she gave them couldn’t be used anyway as their names wouldn’t match
- According to the mom, She was awake for almost 60 hours - Paris to Dallas to Scranton - could have just rented a car in Dallas to drive to Chicago in 5 hours and gotten there the morning the Bandits realized Kevin was Home Alone
- at the grocery store, Kevin bought a carton of orange juice, a carton of milk, loaf of bread, TV dinner, army men, big pack of toilet paper, large container of tide, snuggies drier sheets, mac & cheese, Reynolds wrap - all for 19.83

Modern prices
Milk - 4.00
OJ - 4.00
Wrap - 4.00
Tide - 12.00
Army men - 4.00
TV Dinner - 3.00
TP - 3.00
Mac and cheese - 3.00
Drier sheets - 4.00

41 dollars total - almost right at inflation, so…that’s accurate
