It's not that bad, no disrespect to Ed. When I took the test in my state it was the last Pencil & Paper 4 parts in two days one they did. I spent the 3 days before hand reading Becker books someone loaned me and didn't have a problem. It helps if you've always been good at taking tests and have some training in the…

Burden in my (metal) hand.

Good "old" Homeland vs. bad Homeland hinges on the "Villain."

I want to be excited for this. Season 3 was good. Season 4 was great. Some of season 5 was decent, but the whole Dexterization and reset to status quo of the end of it was such a let down that I just can't get hyped.

I missed that. Having survived the prequels I'm forcefully ignoring any hype related to the new ones in hope of at least being pleasantly surprised and amused this time. Got a short summary?

I haven't found it to be too oppressive. I've had "reasonable discussions" with their writers regarding the AV Club's unfortunate habit of framing reviews as Social Issues in Media pieces as recently as a month ago at http://www.avclub.com/tvclu… although I gave up on that one when Jesse started turning in circles of…

Frank gets his own city name based spin off: The Philadelphia Experiment. Now he travels through time hoping each government project will be the leap home.

It's been covered, but Starz really has been kicking some ass lately. With Shameless having gone into a predictable Showtime repetitive slide, Black Sails is probably up there with Penny Dreadful and GoT as my favorite cable shows. Many people love Outlander, I think it's ok. Blunt Talk is as entertaining and…

Mother, do I have an Oedipus complex?

My state allows unlicensed businesses to give it away free, but it has to be completely giving it away free, and can't be tied in any way to any purchase or admission charge or any consideration at all whatsoever.

Try thinking of a 3 circle Venn Diagram. One is Insult, One is

Insult certainly can be dissent in the case of public figures. Hell, see Hustler v. Falwell.

Black people can't eat less and workout more and turn white. Michael Jackson is the only one I can think of who went full on caucasoplasty, and compared to that even a stomach band seems pretty reasonable if it came down to needing one.

He's arguing about semantics and trying to falsely equate not respecting a legitimate "safe space" in the historical "serious" abuse context with not respecting a "safe space" in the context of someone denying reality.

Thank you. There's a world of difference between singling out some non-public-figure stranger and being rude to them, and a whole cultural idea that it's not ok to joke about some things, or point them out in public figures.

I loved it, and I thought the inclusion of Reality as the villain to them was what tied the whole episode together. Guess what? Fat people are fat, and many people don't find them attractive. Oh no. Get over it. That's reality.

Hey, I'm killing time until South Park posts later. My comments here are all extremely civil compared to what I imagine is going to be a lot of fat people on the internet up in arms on that one.

Are you suggesting that

I thought I made it clear in my above examples, but how about this. On one hand, you can look at a Greek/Roman nude Scuplture and judge its quality and material, proportions, workmanship and attention to detail, whether the subject material fits with the surroundings, and things like that. On the other hand, you can…

And yet here I am, meaning at The AV Club? Yes, I've been reading it and The Onion since late high school/early college, so for at least 15, probably closer to 20 years, and only in the last few years has this social slant to things grown insufferable, in my opinion.
