The sad reality is that all of these things happened, and America just looked away from the TV long enough to go “Huh? What was that?” before switching on Survivor.

Ridiculous. Not rediculous.

They’re interestingly well-designed, in that they each APPEAR to fit into a very stereotypical role which, over time and through interaction, slowly pulls back to reveal a deeper character underneath. The problem, of course, is finding the interest to bother digging beneath the surface. In Haley’s case, her…

Yeah, okay then.

It’s a fascinating thing that’s happened here.

Of course they will!

Right. Legally, you CAN’T stay mad at her or her army of police goons will beat you to death in a back alley and call you a terrorist.

Hey, do you remember back in the day when you could still make a joke... and if that one person in the crowd didn’t laugh at it, it still counted as a joke?
