Oh, it's not strange at all. He's SEXY, for sure. I wish I knew about him way back when...

I watched it again after reading all your comments...

He and Jane Lynch were the bright spots in an easy to get right but totally weak sketch.

Uh, I don't think it was a satire. It was a (poorly written) twilight fan fiction that got picked up by the mainstream. Also, Christian Grey in the books is 28. Hardly an old man. It's like having Zuckerburg spank you

I HATE THESE PEOPLE. I work for a non-profit (support the troops, etc) and we get other competitive org's prospecting mail. These people are SO infuriating.

I love molly ivans. thank you so much for posting this. being a liberal from texas molly is my default hero

I WRITE THIS WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT I MAY BE COMPLETELY WRONG: But I don't know about these being all that racist. Lots of people dress up as caricatures for Halloween. I dressed up as Princess Jasmine and Pocahontas for Halloween when i was a kid. I have a Lebanese grandma so maybe that justifies the princess…

Since many of these are xenophobic and bigoted, not racist, I would like to add some to round them out... since you missed quite a few:

I don't understand - if a costume is based on a real person or iconic character from a movie - a la shirtless Bruce Lee from Enter the Dragon or Pai Mei from Kill Bill and the costume is done from a place of lifelong love, respect and admiration and homage for the movie and character/actor and oh yea, I happen to be a…

we wish we had all those hipster mustaches, you lucky gringos! Horchata!, antipasto!, enchilada!

I'm mexican btw

It's racist if it comes from a culture that's been marginalized or subjugated, not one that once owned a domain with the word "empire" in it.

These are horrible. If you're going to do racist Halloween costume at least get the crazy foam wig at Target depicted below on the top left:

Come to the table? The ACA passed and was signed into law years ago. There is nothing to compromise on. This isn't how compromise works. When one side loses and throws a temper tantrum because they want a do over that's called acting like a petulant child, not a call to "come to the table" to negotiate.

How is it that a popped collar works (and ohhhhhh how it works) on him but not on every frat boy in the US?

and (except for that initial scene) there appear to be no security footage taped and reviewed. So many places where the plot seemed to be remarking to the viewer, "hey, isn't this the sort of situation where a building would have a security camera?"

her ex is pretty dreamy. but hot British always tops hot American in my books - and I'm wondering if that's the kind of tension the show is going for. I hope they manage to spin it more like Liz Lemon and Jack Donaghy than.....well, any other tv duo who ends up together.

Cripes, especially since this cop a) apparently went nuts and assaulted a fellow officer and b) was murdered in his cell that apparently did not contain another person and c) VANISHED FROM THE MORGUE.

YES! How are they not noticing a missing corpse/cop car? This is a small(ish) town. There are not so many bodies in body bags and police cars that one can slip through unnoticed.

Why is picking snuggly Bo Photos not my job, universe? What did I ever do to you?
