Anyone who has spent any significant amount of time around a tween or a teen knows full well that life with them is a great, big roller coaster. One minute they are on top of the world, and the next they are having a hissy fit that is worthy of their toddler years. The slightest wrong look from Mom or Dad can send them on a tirade or into tears. There is no Dramamine for this ride, and at times you feel like you are living with a complete stranger. What happened to that lovely young child who use to reside with you?
While it is a good thing that this hormonal stage of life does not last forever, it certainly feels that way for parents living with these emotionally explosive human beings.
Disney/Pixar’s latest family film, Inside Out 2, sees the return of the original five emotions (and some new ones), including Disgust.
Disgust, who is voiced by the talented Liza Lapira, has the job of protecting Riley from all kinds of situations that could be dangerous. Whether it is eating broccoli or meeting potential toxic people, she cops an attitude that parents are all too familiar with. In addition to protecting her from people, Disgust will also save her from making an awful fashion faux pas liking mixing stripes with polka dots.
With the side flip of her head, a huffy breath/deep sigh and the all too familiar eye roll, Disgust really knows how to lay it on thick when necessary.
That is why dressing up as Disgust will be a very popular choice this Halloween season.
