That did give me pause.

Ha, ha; wow, that is some strange continuity.

Well, just going to have to agree to disagree, then.

At no point did I call you a racist. This is only the most exceptional example of your posts not connecting with mine among several, really.

That is turning out to be the most seriously meant joke that I have ever seen.

Seems odd, it being a joke, that you'd just turn around and use my reaction to it to kind of do the same thing again, except to me personally. It makes for a strange running gag.

Well, there's satire and then there's attributing a language with a racist connotation to people so that, yeah, they don't seem so much more progressive than people who'd support regressing casting to all-white or something.

And that's why I shouldn't be watching anything live. Something like that could kill me with sympathetic embarassment.

Or, you know, the comments that actually were deleted sort of took a five words mention of the… ambiguous gender politics of Grease as something so intolerable (in the sense that it didn't fall in line with their agenda) that it had to be answered with manifestos and rants of a variously personal nature about the…

The word choice there is creative.

One thing that's definitely lost by the deletion is just how demonstrably wrong and hypocritical in a concrete and mundane way the original comment was about the review.

What's inherently self parodic about it?

Isn't the exact opposite of progress complaining about any diversity and successfully achieving all white casting for everything?

That was a little over the top, even compared to the rest. Kind of overplayed your hand there. Well, at least I go to bed with the relief that some part of that wasn't real.

A Thousand Clowns sounds like a hell of a spectacle!

Are you just going to keep repeating that people other than you aren't full individual persons but using different metaphors each time? Because I got it the first time, and that's great, good luck with that.

It's a shame that I'm not a fungi then, but a human being. Quite unlike a fungi in many respects!

Hey, another thing that's not a human being!

Wait, I thought we weren't mixing metaphors.

I don't think Grease: Live quite bored the drunk out of PonyafinaWater, I guess.
