The discovery of (supposed) clusters of Trans-Neptunian objects with dramatically perturbed orbits (thus suggesting interference from a large-mass object) is only about six or seven years old.

The case for Planet 9 has taken an enormous hit recently with the discovery of many more objects outside the cluster which have similarly perturbed orbits. Even before those discoveries, there was no scientific consensus for Planet 9, and there was already a strong suspicion that the supposed cluster was nothing more…

“Raises the question” is a perfectly fine expression. People should use it. You know, so as not to muddle the very specific situation for which “begs the question” was uniquely created.

A weary, exhausted Rick uttered the "WE are the walking dead" about eight seasons ago.

I don’t see anyone claiming she should be sued into oblivion. I see people saying she should be sued because of, you know, the old there-are-consequences-for-your-actions maxim.

You said it yourself: this kind if thing has happened many times before. So there’s precedence, and there are very well-understood reasons not to do what she did. It’s negligence.

It’s endlessly hilarious that this you-don’t know-your-history chestnut is founded on . . . a misunderstanding of history.

“The story will follow the investigative reporter I.M. Fletcher (Hamm)" 

In case anyone just skimmed the article in a mad rush to read the comments, it’s worth noting that it’s US Magazine, not the AVClub, throwing around the word “iconic.” And it’s also worth noting that this is the kind of outlet that regularly puts out articles with titles like “Ali Larter’s 68 Most Iconic Red Carpet…

He did date Rose McGowan. But iirc she never made any accusations against him.

Is there actually an acrobatics skill tree in the Special Edition? Because, unlike its predecessor Oblivion, the original version of Skyrim didn’t have that.

That was the idea of the S1 - 4 showrunner who's the subject of this article. (It's hard to write that in a way that doesn't sound snarky. I'm not being snarky!)

So it’s asking too much for a seasoned screenwriter—this guy, remember, has been writing screenplays since Taking Care of Business in 1990—to come up with something—anything—for a secondary character (well, former primary character) to do, irrespective of what happened in the preceding movie? I mean, they certainly…

I respect Boyega, and he’s totally right about being given nothing to work with, but does he really think Abrams had an interesting, nuanced arc in mind for Finn? “Rogue stormtrooper” is an enticing idea, but it’s merely a mystery-box, carrot-on-a-stick idea if it’s not followed up on. Rian Johnson did not divert that…

No mention of “Benny Lava”? Perhaps the best example of this in English, and one of those proto-viral things from the early(er) days of the Internet.

This does nothing to counter your point, as it took so long to come to fruition, but Coming to America 2 is a real thing. Its principal shooting is in the can, and it’s scheduled to come out around Christmas.

Eh, he he did claim that he thought the gold wrapping was merely an embellishment. I understand that this restaurant is famous for that kind of moronic extavagance, and that he probably should’ve asked what the hell this shiny gold-colored stuff on his steak was, but something else worth considering is . . . would it…

I know it’s just a rhetorical way of making a point, but saying that anyone that has been scammed or defrauded “deserves it,” regardless of where you plot them on the naivete scale, is pretty gross.

I got a full-ride scholarship to an art program (IMPRESSED?!?!) and I think his paintings are a blast.
