So..you're a "Swiftie"?

Early Beatles songs (and most of the memorable, really quintessential teen romance songs from 60's girl groups) were simplistic in presentation only, they were never this overtly immature. I mean the lyrics to this Taylor Swift song could literally be a conversation with a girlfriend, they're so fucking lazy. It feels…

The Fall, the Chameleons, and O.M.D? Congrats, A.V. Club - you finally get it.

As soon as I saw her name and "17" in the same sentence, I knew someone would perv out in this thread. You did not disappoint.

me too.

@avclub-3f2263ada00cf404ac8d4b205f830508:disqus This would - at the very least - be the second time she's literally run away from a problem. She's also avoided most of her problems (including Liam) until they overwhelmed her to the point where she wasn't able to avoid them anymore or viewers would just get bored with…

She reminds me of the same one-dimensional characters from 90's dramas (like Party of Five) who only seem to emote minor variations of "sad". I'm not saying those shows weren't entertaining, but I hate being able to call exactly how a character will to react to every single situation (always running away from her…

I'll never forget that bowling video - or those socks!

Twisted is amazing! I'd say ABC Family is better than most channels right now. Somehow they've managed to get more consistently great programming than even AMC (I only watch Mad Men and Breaking Bad - ABC Family's got at least four solidly entertaining shows).

I'm really annoyed by Callie's character, but I genuinely love this show. I'm sad to go a few months without a little bit of The Foster's brand of wholesomeness.

Betsy Brandt is SUCH a sweetheart! Loved this interview.

We don't know that they don't get the same kind of treatment.

That was as true in 2003 as it was in 1995 - depending on your age. Even super young kids all have cellphones now, but ten years ago I remember constantly worrying about whether my parents *really* hung up the phone when my friends would call. Those were the dayysssss.

One of the most embarrassing things that ever happened to me: I was 15 and reading some poetry at a Barnes and Noble with some friends from my high school lit mag (still not the most embarrassing thing I've ever done), and there was a guy in the audience who I couldn't exactly see extremely well (didn't have my…

The difference between 1993 and 2013 would be ease of access to the internet. I do think it gives her a great excuse to be forced to seek the help of her more experienced friends, instead of just looking up info on the internet like I did.

I think his looks reflect his writing persona. Snarky and handsome should go hand in hand.

Did Armond White compile this fucking list? Why bother putting a list together at all if you're going to rank Out of Sight AT NUMBER SIX?! Above anything the Coen brothers have done?! Bullshit.

I think there's a pretty good reason for that, seeing as how children grow up to be adults with hardcore nostalgia for things they were too young to really experience. It seems like more of a 20 year period thing though. I always think about the 70's obsession with the 50's (Grease, Happy Days, etc), and I know the…

I always tear up a little at this one.
