That just strikes me as a really short-sighted attitude. We need more people who are willing to help solve the big problems. If their motivation is ego instead of genuine altruism, I’m fine with that, so long as they’re actually doing the work. I’m more than happy if we, for instance, give Bono a shiny awards statue…

Yeah, trying to get people aware of the reality that we’re on a path to making earth uninhabitable, is “self-righteousness”.

Wait a minute. This guy actually wants there to be two siblings who have Dean and Hank’s problems? What a dick!

Sorry I was busy taking a shit, not giving one.

This is a bad take, and you should feel bad.

That makes sense. I worked at a big chain pizza place one summer, and cheese pizzas get more cheese on them than the other pizzas and cheese is calorically dense.

The best thing about Costco food court is that there’s a lot of valid options. I’m a very picky eater who usually orders the same thing whenever I eat out, but when I used to go to Costco, I always had a tough time deciding if I wanted pizza, a hot dog, or a chicken bake. Even their salads are really tasty. And…

Yeah, I’m all for delving deeply into a work to tease out all its implications, but there’s a difference between meaningful close reading and rule grubbing of the “Why didn’t Skynet just shove a nuke up an elephant’s ass and send it back in time?” variety.

Seriously, this hang up on specifics in general is a waste of time. I know the interwebs is mostly to blame because if something is trending or popular then an autopsy must be done on it so that its complete inner workings must be laid bare. This leads to “Everything You Need To Know About...” or “10 Things You Didn’t…

It Follows is great. Your opinion is wrong.

If anything, I think It Follows is underrated, partly because people get hung up on things that aren’t really the point, like a) trying to nail down extremely specific rules when part of the point is that no one really knows all the rules and they’re trying to figure the monster out while fleeing for their lives, and…

Yeah, you’re right, the movie sucks. A beloved movie adored by critics and fans alike “sucks.” Thank god the internet has you to ooze an opinion on whatever comments section you can find and set the record straight. Finally, a real straight shooter. You should definitely continue to seek out message boards whenever…

I’m ignoring him because I don’t care about him and neither does anyone else. People hate on her.

I think it’s more of the too-cool-for-school anti-intellectualism. And it annoys the fuck out of me. Dog forbid you wander intellectually, and don’t self-deprecate enough - especially as a woman. One more fucking knife edge women have to walk: be smart but not too smart or else you’re a show-off, think but not too…

Still not sure why there is so much hate for Natalie Portman on this site... Could someone please explain what she did wrong other than be that friend that means well, but comes off a little pretentious?

You think that’s bad, imagine being in a classroom taught by ths guy. He literally once passed around a green military jacket he wore all the time on which he had replaced the original plastic buttons with big round wooden ones. He wanted us to understand his appreciation for fine detail & sensory stimulus. So we kind…

Lord I know I’m white, but please don’t ever let me be this white.

I feel like I have an internal prejudice against people that don’t enjoy listening to classical music, I am sorry. :(

‘Being technically interesting doesn’t make it enjoyable to listen too, take classical music for instance.’

your comment? Yeah we aren’t sure what it contributes either.
