**There are spoilers below, please do not read any further if you don't wish to know any of the plot**

From the title of the movie, one should be able to figure out that this is not suitable for children. If the title isn't enough to sway you from taking children, maybe the name of one of the producers will: Seth Rogen. I wouldn't even recommend anyone under 21 going to watch it, or maybe it's just me. It takes an immense amount of tolerance for Seth's type of humor. Yeah, it started as a typical R rated movie with the profanity and wildly offensive humor, which wasn't a problem with me, but it quickly turned into a hard R.

There were some intense scenes that alluded to real life situations, like rape and murder early on in the film. The former was the most uncomfortable to watch for my friend and I; we both turned to each other with that "WTF" look on our faces. Actually, we probably had the "WTF" look during majority of the movie. The second most uncomfortable was the weird, explicit sex scenes near the end. I've never been more confused and horrified at food before. I will never again look at hot dogs, buns, bagels, etc, the same again. So if you want to go through that horror with your children and have to explain afterwards what those foods were doing to each other, go for it. Just know you're making the other adults in the theater uncomfortable by having your kids watch the movie with them, and yes, they are judging you.

Since school is coming up fast, your children that watched the movie are definitely gong to talk all about how you took them to watch "Sausage Party," cue more judgement from teachers and the parents that were told by their kids about it. Not only that, but everyone knows how children love to mimic lines they've heard. There's no telling which inappropriate line from the movie they'll be quoting from then on.

Another thing brought up early in the film is one of the main characters, a douche. If you want to explain what a douche is to the children you brought into the movie, go ahead. Just don't do it in the movie. It's already awkward enough that the other adults have to sit through your kids asking questions they shouldn't have even thought of, but they don't deserve hearing you explain what the character is or what he did to that poor juice box. You shouldn't have to explain what the human character is doing with the bath salts either. Really, you shouldn't have to explain anything in the movie, because children shouldn't be there in the first place. Drug use isn't a kid-friendly topic, just like the rest of the film.

R is not a hard enough rating for this movie. It's more like an X-rated film. Anyone bringing their children might risk traumatizing their kids for life. And that "It can't be worse than what they see/hear on late night TV" crap? Not a good excuse to bring your kids. Same goes for the "Well they won't know what's going on anyway," excuse. Just find a babysitter. Please.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
