It’s just so weird. I understand that the ad is supposed to mean “look, we compressed all these things into an iPad” but that’s just not what it actually says at all. It solely reads as: “look, we’re violently destroying at least one thing you have a strong emotional connection to; now give us a thousand dollars.”…

I like how these folks want all the perks of a governed society but none of the responsibilities. Isn’t there a patch of desert or tundra or a vacant Island we could move them to so they could be free. 

I plan to vote for Joe Biden. I also hate Joe Biden. Like, hate.

My issue is with the idea that we “deserve” better candidates, considering we’re the ones who picked them.

No one expects Stewart to be a propagandist for Biden the way Tucker is for Trump. It’s just supremely unreal to see the media at large, including Stewart, treat Biden’s age and occaisonal gaffes as if they’re in any way comparable to Trump’s insane, dictatatorial, self-absorbed ramblings.

i didn’t have a problem with him mentioning biden’s age but i found that for his first commentary back, that pointing out that both candidates are old and america deserves better candidates wasn’t some homerun that he, and others, thought...as this has been discussed ad nauseam, and will continue to be, until the…

“Indecision 2024: Antiques Roadshow” is not an A + joke. We’re staring down the barrel of a country controlled by Trump, Johnson, Roberts, and whatever worse monster replaces McConnell when he departs, and just about the only thing the entire media can say about it is “boy, Biden sure is old.” Never mind the fact that…

Stewart, the architect of that stupid “rally to restore sanity” isn’t exactly the most incisive analyst out there. I would expect a lot of jokes about Biden’s age and pulling at his collar while mugging at the camera for the next 9 months. The vast majority of our media, at almost all levels, is a catastrophe.

Weird how many progressives are saying Jon’s too much of a mainstream Democrat considering how much he downplayed the differences between Biden and Trump.

I’m not sure where I read this — probably the Tipping Point or some other Malcom Gladwell — but I think Elmo and the new Elmo’s World section of Sesame Street was the product of CTW doing actual research on how to connect with children. I assume that he resonates more with children than Grover ever did which may have…

“and then some of Swift’s fans took her non-reaction as her being mad”

I knew we were in trouble when he made that Barbie-boobies joke. It was pretty clear he didn’t have the zeitgeist on the movies up for awards.

Well, I’m sure for the good-hearted fans, it won’t. I thought it was pretty funny, but the whole time I was rolling my eyes internally, in anticipation of the pigheaded negativity crowd that you see in general fake-fandom. Hopefully I’m wrong and they just accept him, but I don’t think I’m making too much of a leap in…

I’ve been on a few message boards today and the sight of the new Doctor playing a very athletic game of catch in his underwear doesn’t seem to have turned many people off. Quite the opposite, actually.

The best part of Miracle Workers is watching a bunch of fun actors having a hell of a time with each other.

I agree that it’s a necessity for structural safety and traffic flow, but I think the main complaint is why did they do it weeks before the race? There’s going to be a lot of tourists flowing through there with no knowledge of the upcoming F1 race. They want their pictures of the strip and are going to be disappointed…

My last pee emergency was Knives Out. I can usually go 2 hours and 10 minutes just fine, but I foolishly didn’t empty my bladder beforehand and it’s really not a movie you want to miss any part of, so the last 20 minutes were excruciating. I rocketed out of the theater as soon as the screen faded to black, which is a…

So what are theaters supposed to do, then? Replace the seats with toilets?

I fully support intermissions, for all kinds of things.

I recently saw Tool, who I remind you have a long show with a lot of long songs. Since they kind of don’t bother with the usual rock show pageantry of an encore, they just put in a proper intermission before the final songs (which, combined, usually take half an…

Reasons to hit pause on a long ass watch at home:
1. Hungry
2. Thirsty
3. Need to cook something
4. Need to order something
5. Receiving an order
6. Receiving a phone call
7. Bathroom break
8. 2nd bathroom break because you’ve been sitting there for so long

None of this can be avoided for five hours without a requirement of…
