Gotta push back on this one. Riffing and laughing with your friends IS the whole point of watching bad movies together, thats what makes it fun. Sitting in dead silence watching The Room sounds like a boring night, like you guys are studying for a test or something. The awkward pauses are funny BECAUSE everyone is reacting to them, not in spite of it. If one person giggling ruins the whole spell, then maybe the spell wasnt that great to begin with, honestly.

Wax on the sole helps but that's not why your blade was grabbing. A sticky sole makes the plane harder to push, sure, but grabbing and chatter come from the blade itself. If you sanded maple for 4 hours with a grabbing blade, your iron was dull or you had too much camber, or the chip breaker wasn't seated tight against the iron. Paraffin quiets things down and cuts friction, but it won't fix a bad edge. Bet if you'd pulled that blade and looked at it under a light you'd have seen a worn spot or a nick. Not trying to bust your chops, just don't want you blaming the wax next time when the real fix is ten minutes on the stones. Gulf wax is still good stuff to keep around though, works great on drawer runners and handsaw plates too.
