The Perfect Response to When Your Parents Accuse You of Watching Too Many Horror Movies

When your parents ask you about the 12 hours you spent binge-watching "Scream" 4 times in a row, you need a solid defense.

Here are some responses to help you out:

• 1. I'm researching the art of horror film criticism for a school project.
• 2. I'm preparing for an emergency, because you never know when the boogeyman might strike.
• 3. I'm improving my knowledge of 3D audio formats, and I'm pretty sure I've got it down now.
• 4. I was testing the limits of the human brain, and it turns out I can watch 12 hours of Michael Myers in 3 hours.
• 5. I have a love affair with Jason Voorhees... just a platonic love affair, of course.
