Disappointing.
I kinda hoped they'd milk the Pam's-mom thing more than this, but it seemed like they were strangely eager to just wrap it up as quickly as possible, and it felt pretty anticlimactic. Lots of comic potential squadered, eye em aitch oh.

Wait…there's a *President* Obama now?

There's nothing worthwhile about libertarianism that liberalism doesn't do at least as well, and the anti-regulation/social-safety-net stuff is pretty appalling. Note that "liberal"="Democrat."

Thanks for the trenchant psychoanalysis. You've really taught me something about myself. I would reciprocate by pretending to have some idea of YOUR mental state, but that would be, you know…dumb.

My favorite was Porcupine. The sequence of "The Cutter," "Back of Love," "My White Devil," and "Clay" is killer.

I really liked these guys back in the day.
I still do, I guess, though their post-eighties albums don't generally do much for me (exception: I thought Evergreen was pretty good).

Nobody is "forcing" you to do anything, genius. The fact that people look at you funny when you use racial/homophobic slurs is not censorship. Use whatever language you want. Seriously—go for broke. Free speech, baby. Express the SHIT out of yourself. It's just really fucking rich that you then whine that other

Agreed. Horseshit all the way.

Yeah, it's terrible how the PC Police are coming to your house and BEATING YOU UP for using mean words. WHERE'S FREE SPEECH?!? THIS IS TYRANN—oh, wait, they're not? You mean the government has nothing to do with it? People are "censoring" you by telling you to fuck off when you use racist/homophobic language? You

So it was the word "facile" that set you off then, DW? Perhaps you could provide a list of words that are gonna provoke this strange, kneejerk, anti-intellectualism in you. Then we could tailor the level of debate appropriately.

The protagonist of my new book, Magnet Man, shoots magnet missiles.

But seriously…
…why exactly do we NEED a slur with so much baggage, anyway? What's wrong with just calling Parker and Stone assholes? Gets the job done perfectly well.

No, I think it's more the case that your school sucked. I never heard the term used in college either.

Yes, that's right.
"Fag" isn't offensive BECAUSE it's associated with gayness. What an absurd idea. My entire high school experience and yours was a hallucination.

I remember back in the day my brother was *desperate* to get his hands on the SNES port of Primal Rage. The aesthetic must have seemed like the COOLEST THING EVER to an eleven-year-old, and even now I must admit that it IS a potentially compelling concept—needless to say, however, not compelling enough to make up for

JEEZ! Why won't they give the people what they want; namely, playable bosses and farting dinosaurs?

Roger, Alex, and Kuma included?
Say no more, then! I'm sold. I know he was a one-off licensed character, but I wish Gon would return. That little dinosaur had it going on. Also, I hope this one lets you play as the last boss. That was a LAME LAME LAME omission in Tekken 5.

I agree.

I think the student should find another professor if at all possible. If we're talking about an adult student who is more or less the professor's peer, maybe. So you're right! I will admit it. However, if we're talking about traditional student-teacher relationships, then the possibility of finding such a dynamic

I think it kind of necessarily IS if the student is actually taking your class at the time. Ex-students, obviously, are a different story.
