I keep meaning to watch Side by Side

McNutt is a holdover from the days when AV Club was the website for tv coverage. I don't think Nowalk's a fuckwit, but he's not in the same league. The fact that his insights on the romance set-up for Jon and Dany were essentially "it's cringe" is indicative of the general shallowness of the review. Save that shit for…

Japan first made an offer of surrender to the United States through Widar Bagge, the Swedish envoy to Japan, in 1944.

Actually, in English the meaning of a word is defined by its usage.

"Anyway, Theon’s a way more interesting character than Jon Snow"

The Nazis weren't embedded in a centuries-old feudal society. Hitler was elected first, and Germany's actions in WWII involved shifts in a status quo. Service to feudal militaries based on familial obligation is, in contrast, all these people have known going back centuries. The guy in Ed Sheeran's group who said…

Sheeran's group was going to reinforce The Twins, so I will definitely get no joy out of any offensive against that place now. Here I wasn't really rooting for anyone except Bronn to get out in one piece.

At first I thought it was stupid that dragons would be weak against giant crossbows, but then it turned out that Bronn was the one with the giant crossbow, and it all made sense.

Its what it means colloquially. The meaning of a word often depends on the formality of the context within which it is used.

More valuable human capital and efficient trading relationships for the rest of us I suppose!

More charismatic too. Back then they knew how to sell a lie with flair.

The term is usually used colloquially as an umbrella shorthand to mean something that has been classified as confidential or higher.

" a panel about thin-skinned serious artists getting worked up over an innocuous, nearly forgotten sketch would actually make a good premise for a contemporary comedy sketch."

Was too!

Shep Smith just sends people unsolicited opinions about True Blood.

If U.S. gun laws are so great, well-oiled, and responsible, could someone please explain why smuggled American guns are responsible for so much Canadian crime?

Pretty obviously a broader social problem actually. The notion that it's "their problem" is indefensibly daft.

Maybe he'll be a single business dad who meets a single business lady who is very successful and dedicated to her job but whose life will actually be completely empty until she learns the importance of getting a dick?

Fuckin' Wisconsin milk people.

This is dumb. There's still plenty of opportunity for women to sell their looks. People have a problem with gratuitousness, not existence.
