This has all been a simultaneously interesting and frustrating read. I see where you're coming from, but at the same time you've made some points that don't totally work, and you have been condescending — perhaps you should share what YOUR definition is, because you come off as 'holier than thou' throughout and the…

I'm inclined to agree with the point about people having more access to gays than to black people. There are sections of the US that have tremendously low numbers of black people, which would make it easier to "see" a black person than to KNOW a black person.

I'm with Micah. There has been an apparent racial divide among the characters on the show, obviously, because of the history there, and elements of that are certainly present, but that divide isn't the point of the story. The argument about not knowing so much as the names of the the people in Laveau's group, to me,…

If I can be three days late replying to this, I agree wholeheartedly. It also seems to me that simply because there's a black side and a white side in the story that the focus has shifted frequently to the part that race is playing, or what's exploitative and what's not, and what's 'too far' or whatever. I don't…

I just want to second that. Major points. It's an underdog.

There was a video, I guess if you looked for it, it could be found, but if memory serves, she was wearing a short shirt and sitting on a motorcycle, and as she got off the motorcycle, there a moment where it appeared something was there. youtube gaga penis and you'll see. Anyway, that's where the rumor came from.

To be fair, moistening the reed on a woodwind could be construed as lapping, but likely more akin to fellatio. Perhaps that's the analogy they should've gone for.

I was 10 when I saw it for the first time. I had already been filled in on menstruation (I had the sex talk when I was ten, but I'm not sure which came first).

Who gets his period in the locker room after gym. Yes.

At the risk of a slight spoiler alert, according to this version Carrie was homeschooled until 6th grade, when the state forced Margaret White to enroll Carrie in public school for some unspoken reason.

There was a TV movie sequel in 2002 with Patricia Clarkson as Margaret and Angela Bettis as Carrie. It was the setup for a pilot about Carrie, who lives at the end (major plot spoiler for a film not worth watching).

"A little more" is the key to that. Emphasis on "little."

I was able to find the album track by googling; a hip-hop blog has posted it.

I wasn't thrilled with this song at first, but that catchy-ass melody did exactly what it was supposed to and love it now.

Bill: Oh, will you help me? Can you help me?
Lilith: You don't need to be helped any longer. You've always had the power to go back to Kansas.
Bill:I have?
Jessica: Then why didn't you tell him before?
Lilith: Because he wouldn't have believed me. He had to learn it for himself.

My aunt had a military funeral.  She served in the 70's but obviously not in combat. The funeral itself was a standard service at a church, but the gravesite stuff was performed by the VA, no one she knew.  She was buried in a veteran's cemetery .

Not for nothing, but… nobody was really waiting around for Damon on Douglas.  There was nothing even chub-worthy about that.

FOR. THE. WIN.

That's called Nystagmus.  It's not voluntary. It's the equivalent of what happens to person's eyes when in a car, watching telephone poles go by.  It's worse with some people than others and more apparent at different times than others. I went to high school with 3 brothers who all had it.  I once saw one of them when…

Ditto that.  It's airing in 2 parts so it seems weird that the review is based on the whole thing.
