If this blog had a rating system, which perhaps it should, mine would probably be PG13. That was never my intention. My thoughts are a bit on the edgy side so I guess it's fitting. Having this thought made me wonder how they define PG13 for films? Here's an interesting interpretation:
PG-13 - Parents Strongly Cautioned - Some material may be inappropriate for children under 13. These films may contain sex references, up to four uses of explicit language, drug innuendo, strong crude/suggestive humor, mature/political themes, moderately long horror moments and/or moderate action violence. There are usually no restrictions on non-sexual nudity. However, bloodshed is rarely present. This is the minimum rating at which drug content is present; with the exception of Austin Powers and Click. Marijuana smoking is the only illegal drug use that can be depicted in a PG-13 film, with the exception of Forrest Gump, in which a brief scene depicts an actress snorting cocaine. While PG-13 films usually have more profanity than PG films, this is not necessarily the case. A film that is given a PG-13 rating due to profane language and/or racial insults is given this rating because it contains more of these elements than a PG rating would permit, or the film contains uses of stronger profanities than a PG would permit. A film rated PG-13 for "intense violence" is given this rating if blood is present in a violent way. The films Gremlins and Indiana Jones: Temple of Doom are well known as the movies that PG-13 was created for. In recent years, this rating has been used for the majority of American films released. Some films that have received a PG-13 rating have a director's cut with an R rating. Daredevil is just an example of this practice.[15] Examples include The Simpsons Movie, Eat Pray Love and Casino Royale.
Ok, truth be told my actual life should be rated R. I'll try to keep the blog to a PG13.
What rating would you give your life?

This is TOO funny. Depends on the day...but I guess my life would be a PG13. When the kids were young it was more PG, but I've gotten more careless with my language, movie watching, conversation as they've become adults.
Love you!
