Followed by a scene where Simon Pegg slowly realises how shaggable Lake Bell is while she's working out, even though she's 34, to the sounds of Yello's 'Oh yeah'.

They're both exactly unlike each other. There is no-one else that the two of them are more unlike than. Why, they're practically not twins!

Swap them for some Red Apple cigarettes?

And what do you think is so bad about 'Girl'? I'm a girl. And your boss, and powerful, and rich, and hot and smart. And a spider.

Sorry, I was trying to be too meta there.

Captain Planned Parenthood?

In honour of South Park's trademark style I'll say both, but definitely one more than the other. You know which one. I won't say it, but you can infer it from context.

If the answer to bad speech is more speech rather than restricted speech, presumably the answer to someone shouting "Fire!" in a crowded theatre is shouting "No there isn't, asshole!"

No, fair point, I don't think this completely made-up episode of South Park would be in the service of the status quo of today, if only because I don't know what the status quo would be in this case. Myrrh Spice Lattes in cups with pictures of a baby manifesting himself on them served on 6th January?

It's probably been made a bigger issue that it otherwise would have been when it was picked up by the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, which I realise is pretty much a fringe position of no real interest to anyone.

You might be on to something. There was that one guy who seemed to be boasting that he had beat the system by getting the barista to write Happy Christmas on his cup - before the middle of November mark you - and had missed the bit where he paid Starbucks for the privilege.

You forgot Gawker, which as I understand it is, in terms of its power to control us, somewhere between FEMA and the aliens from V. The good one, not the remake.

You know, I think you touch on what might be the sticking point in interpretations of this season when you talk about what could have been. People who have been positive about it might tend to think that it's incredibly obvious that there is a message about how this sort of poor behaviour hurts the attempts to fix the

Funnily enough, the use of trigger words like 'problematic' is partly due to the PC mob trying to play the ball not the man and not call people those things.

Your awareness needs to read more. I'd start with The History Man by Malcolm Bradbury, published in 1975. Which has the added bonus of being quite funny.

I think full naming someone should be added to the list of proscribed things, along with slut shaming, fat shaming and bad hairdo shaming. Sorry.

Sociopaths. Duh.

God, not this again.

Is it funnier than people who complain about the groupthink of PC culture getting their panties in a twist when people disagree with them in a less than respectful manner? Because that shit is hi-larious.

Oh I'm sorry. Is this meant to be a safe space for you?
