Ahhh. Remember the days of Sean O’Neal? He could really take down some celebrity hubris/ridiculousness. Or, at least tie it together to make a coherent point. This is an article in which the actor complains about taking quotes out of context and then proceeds to take every quote out of context to make a poorly…

Love me some Cody Showdys.

Yeah, this seems relevant:

What a dumb fucking article.

Is this satire or are you really that painfully cliche? Over some pathetic steroid case who wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire?

It had a good ten year run. Maybe when it’s finally gutted the anonymous benefactor who bankrolls The Avocado will buy it cheap, assemble a decent stable of writers, start over.

The collective AV Club hate campaign against this dude is unprecedented.

Concluding that Spears should not have been in a conservatorship for 20 years was perfectly reasonable, and a good reason to feel sympathy for Spears.  I’m not sure why so many people have jumped from that to aggressively asserting that Spears is an amazing hero, who never engaged in any behavior that was worrisome or…

I don’t watch the show, know little about Jamie Chung but...why would that be surprising?  She doesn’t seem particularly famous, it’s a popular show, why would she be above appearing in a cameo?

A few years ago it was revealed that, after years of people blasting Justin for not doing more to defend Janet Jackson, that Janet had told him to stay silent, Sam Barsanti was all “he didn’t have to stay silent just because that’s what she wanted.”

The evidence that Timberlake is a jerk has always seemed pretty thin.  It seems to have a lot less to do with Timberlake’s actual behavior, and more to do with the fact that we need more villains for our fantasy story about living saint Britney Spears.

 I'm still not sure why we're supposed to hate Justin Timberlake.

“Britney Spears continues to prove that she’s one of the least selfish famous people to ever exist, even though, after all she’s been through, a little righteous anger would be more than justified.”

I honestly thought the solution would be to make an official ‘stock’ database for AI to use that is made entirely out of art/music/voices/whatever that people are paid to contribute to. Meanwhile set up a standard for celebrities to license their images/voices/whatever for use so that they can approve/deny projects as…

The AI people all say if they had to pay to license the content it’s trained on, it would be impossible. In which case, I feel like that’s fine. I can’t do all kinds of things because they’d be illegal.

Excellent. It’s a disgrace and a desecration.

I like Stewart. I’m happy to have him back, especially with this being an election year.

Same.  Because I am really not sold on Austin Butler, who strikes me as a blandly attractive actor in the Timothee Chalamet vein, but not very interesting.  

How did HBO let this one go? Even though I don’t think he was in charge then, let’s go ahead and blame Zaslav for it.
