I have a bigger issue with the implication that British actors shouldn't play Vikings. Are we really down to looking at nationality now?

Yeah, Spain had a very large Muslim population at the time. They ruled most of the Iberian peninsula during the time the story is set, with their rule starting to wind down after 1000 -- though that took a few hundred years to be fully diminished. Considering the amount of trade and travel between the Muslim ruled…

“Sadly, 1999's The 13th Warrior proved similarly in need of reframing, what with Spaniard Antonio Banderas playing a Muslim poet.”

eh, most people are horrible for free.

RV Driver: “Wow, this thing is really struggling.”

I don’t know why but given all that shittiness in the past 24 hours, this picture made me really happy.

This is why the video evidence of my assorted crimes won’t hit YouTube until after I’m dead.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

You are using the “No True Scotsman” fallacy on race. And since race is some made-up shit you can sorta get away with it. But I tell you, if my daughters are black enough to get a heaping dose of racism, they are black enough to be black.

Seems like Markle is not black enough for you to defend her, and not white enough…

Are you really this fucking dumb?

It’s been a long year, so you’re likely trolling out of sheer boredom, but I’m bored too, so...by “relative,” you mean Meghan’s mother, as opposed to Rachel Dolezal’s two white parents?

I was iffy on this until I found out they added back in the plotline where Anna Paquin’s character, Lisa “Rogue” Cohen, steals people’s powers when she touches them.

Being terrible for the sake of attention is never a good long term strategy. BMW’s just being terrible for the sake of attention. That’s why all of this makes me just hate the cars.

Fuck being ugly just to be different. Fuck being ugly just because it pisses people off and brings eyes to your brand. Fuck being ugly…

The bangle cars were bad in the aughts and they are just as bad today. People may lust after the E60 M5s v10, but nobody really thinks that trunk looks good. 

I finally saw a 4 in the wild and all I could think of was

As a designer myself, I would like to respectfully disagree. With both you and the article. The worst design is always the pointlessly vulgar. That said, there is actually one function to the obnoxious mole rat grille: It distracts from the shockingly shoddy detailing around it. The rear doesn’t have that luxury.

The XJ is design perfection, at least the 84-96 models.

Not beautiful enough? It’s just...plain...ugly.

You’re being too kind Dave, it has no original lines, whatsoever. It mimics the looks of a 5 year old Tahoe. Nothing “Grand” here to see, keep on moving folks.
