"my dad will hide me." means "my dad will beat me." A hiding is basically where they beat you with a belt or a switch stick. The phrase "to tan one's hide" means to beat or spank someone severely. In this context, "to be hided" meant to receive a severe beating or flogging.

2025-11-11 20:35:19 +0000 UTCI was almost the same age as the characters/cast when the movie came out. My bestie, Kristen and I would have sleepovers every weekend of that summer before 8th grade. Every weekend we would pool our allowance and rent 2 movies. Stand by Me was always one of the two. Every weekend. I was already ravenously addicted to King, as well as an aspiring writer back then. Gordie's character automaticaly resonated with me. Wil was also my first celebrity crush. Who cared about the leeches? I was more focused on the fact boys my age were on screen in their underwear! What would our mothers think of us girls drooling over such a thing! Seriously though, somehow Stand by Me became my gateway drug to Star Trek. All the teen mags talked about Wil's next roll in something called Star Trek: The Next Generation. Hated the original, but was worth a look, lol. It's sadly ironic how the film predicted the 4main characters and actors futures. Corey and Jerry have mostly falled to the wayside. River died too soon, and Wil became an author. Thank you for this stroll down memory lane to a defining summer of my youth.💜 So we're watching Lost Boys next month, right? JK, but if it shows up in a poll, Im smashing that button!
