Lunch Break

While we were having lunch earlier today, we watched the movie “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape?” Actually, we were not able to start it. It was already in middle part when we tuned in. Almost at the end of the movie, there was this scene where Gilbert’s very obese mother died and they decided to burn their house down with her body in it. They did this because they did not want their mother to be the butt of the jokes because she was so big that it would have been very hard to bring her corpse down from upstairs. While I was watching them burn their house down, the oddest thought came to my mind, “What about their home insurance? I am sure they would not be able to claim anything.” It was such a weird consideration to think about when it was just a movie and a work of fiction. Sometimes weird things just really pop into our heads during odd moments.
