Yeah, considering what a cinematic cliche it is to play upbeat music over a depressing scene, I think Nowell deserves a lot more credit for his approach to a profoundly depressing portrayal of poverty and exploitation.

LOOK AT THAT ASSHOLE PLAYING MUSIC FOR HIS BABY IN THE LINER NOTES! HE MUST BE AN ASSHOLE INCAPABLE OF HUMAN CONNECTIVITY!

Haha. The idea of Billie Joe Armstrong even attempting to beat someone up gives me the giggles.

Yeah, he completely misinterpreted "Wrong Way," probably because he just assumed Nowell is too much of a "jock" to actually care about the subjects of his song.

Derek wasn't a good alpha— he bit kids who were too young and stupid to know any better. I don't think Scott is the best alpha, either, but he has a lot less emotional baggage than Derek ever did. He values humanity enough that he only bit someone to save a life, not to grow his pack.

Awww, you're leaving right after they got someone other than Phil to review the show? That's so sad!

I CAN FACE DOWN YOUR VOTE!!!!!!!!

First time. Got it.

Wait, have you seen boobies in real life before, or will this be the first time?

I CAN UPVOTE MYSELF!

I was expecting "You're a CROOK, Caption HOOK— Judge, won't you throw the BOOK at the pirate . . ." B+ for subverting firstie expectations.

Gosh, I wonder why she doesn't want to hear you complain about that.

A thesis, or an interliminal Marxist meta discourse?
