Some of us were fourteen and didn't know any better, but are subsequently embarrassed by the thought of Nu Metal now.

Yeah. It's fascinating. Incredibly ambitious but a total wreck. Like someone tried to film a Pynchon novel but didn't really get it.

I've been trying to push that movie as an ironic movie watch, but the third time proved too much for me. It's a glorious mess, but I just cannot watch it again.

I thought the trend was beloved celebrities dying.

Even in the US, parody is not necessarily a successful defense to a copyright infringement claim.

N.B. "Per usual" means the same thing as "as usual," so "as per usual" is redundant and silly.

Awesome, or induced a massive amount of fremdschamen?

My spider sense is vomiting.

I'm seething at the thought.

Still an absolute dick move, but at least then someone is enjoying it. It honestly bothers me less.
