I like Hercules but I don't pretend that it's very good. Mainly I like the music.

So…I was watching the musical a couple years ago and for the first time in years realized that Simba is a terrible protagonist. He doesn't do a single thing over the course of the story that isn't someone else's idea. It started out a minor problem for me and now it's all I can think about whenever I watch this movie.
It was also funny/infuriating that these assholes literally stormed the house with military grade firearms, waved them around at the inhabitants, then were shocked and butthurt when Melissa blew Jon Hamm away after expressly and clearly warning him that she would do so. I kept expecting them to say something like "but…
Yeah, I didn't understand this either. It's not like the cops are going to come after them.
Wasn't there a show called Amazing Stories? Maybe that?
I don't recall the exact wording. I took it to mean that she was criticizing the implication, but, absent context, it could also be read as a straight up criticism of the idea that women and men should have to do equal work to get equal pay. (Even I had to re-write that sentence like 3 times and it's still confusing.)…
Clinton really did a pretty good job. Admittedly, a lot of that was simply goading Trump and letting him bury himself, but clearly Clinton had given this strategy some thought and it worked beautifully. Not the showiest strategy, but shrewd.
What Trump has said was something to the effect that if you are a woman who wants equal pay, you should do as good of a job as a man. Which intellectually means the same thing, but the implication was that women who aren't paid equally aren't therefore doing as good of a job as men. So that's what that point was…
Also, the e-mail thing was discussed. Hillary did last night what she should have done weeks ago. She said, "That was a dumb mistake. If I knew then what I knew now, I wouldn't have done it. I'm sorry." Period, end of story. She finally got that one right.
I think he is saving that one for when he brings up the fact that her husband slept with other women. It'll the the cherry on top of his shit sundae.
It was the best possible situation for her. And it probably took a lot less effort than she had thought it was going to take.
"Trumped Up Trickle Down" was actually a sick (and accurate) burn, but it was a bit dated.
Holt had my sympathy. There was no way he was going to be able to manage this shitshow and he did as serviceable job as anyone could have been expected to do. They do need to give moderators a way to cut the mike when candidates just ignore time limits, though.
Or, "Trump pretty much admitted he has an effective 0% tax rate."
She was one of the funnier Daily Show correspondents in the end of Stewart's era.
I don't think he is. He's chugging along in all of his normal gigs (Goldbergs, etc.) and he was very funny live tweeting the debate last night.
Damn it, that made me cry. Glad to hear he is at least doing okay.
Wow. Just . . . wow.
It did make me go back and find the 2006 Rosie O'Donnell bit about him. It was funny and surprisingly prescient.
I was shocked at how Trump not only admitted, but screamingly interrupted, Hillary Clinton with the statement that taking advantage of the 2008 housing crisis was "good business." The same with the tax issue; when he interrupts her speculation about him paying effectively a 0% income tax rate to say "it would have…
