Coffee, how to treat servers, over-planning, desert survival, crappy funerals, and why Clark Griswold is the worst movie dad.<\/p>\n<p>Big D gets wine drunk on &#8220;grinot pigio.&#8221; Ash defends Walter White, and we all agree that Beverly D&#8217;Angelo is an absolute MILF.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plot Summary: \u201cNational Lampoon\u2019s Vacation&#8221;<\/strong> Clark Griswold, and his supportive wife, Ellen, take their two teenage children, Rusty and Audrey, on a cross-country trip from the suburbs of Chicago, all the way to sunny California\u2019s Walley World amusement park.
