Yeah, I've been trying to spend more time working and actually creating things instead of consuming them. It's a hard habit to break, but the feeling that I get less and less these days out of pop culture discussions, and that the community less and less resembles the one I really enjoyed having those discussions…

I've been feeling that way to an extent lately. Everything is designed to feed into the consumer's sense of superiority and to create discussions that center around it as a result. As a result, I feel like many conversations are just aggressive and hostile, flooded with sarcasm, no attempt to discuss the issue at…

I actually really liked Shut Up, You Fucking Baby!, but that has a lot to do with A)Being a product of its time; in 2002 I was happy with any scathing criticism of the Bush administration, and B)I thought some of the stories he tells on it are just really funny. I wish I could remember which ones are my favorites…

What do you want TV to be?

Or how 12 Years a Slave was unfair to white people.

I've definitely been skeptical of shows for this reason, and it's usually paid off (recent examples include Workaholics, The League, and House of Cards, US version).

My answer is very similar to Alex McCown's: I've never read one word of one page of a Harry Potter book, although I don't know if I would call it "spite" so much as "being a college student who doesn't want to read a fantasy series aimed at children." (I think the series published its first book when I was in high…

Well, I guess that's what I get for reading any article about Joss Whedon without having seen all of his work to completion.

The detective has "Solve" in her name.
The broker this season is called "Broker."

Great, get back to ranting about imaginary hipsters and backlash that must be made up and disingenuous because it doesn't agree with your opinion.

Another actor, Navajo film student Allison Young, says she approached
the producers with her concerns, only to be told, “If you guys are so
sensitive, you should leave,”

I guess I've been looking at that as— a)really only two of the women actually got violent, and b)similar to the stereotypical gay male behavior in this episode, the point of the lesbian bar was to show that Constance still doesn't recognize what is a very obvious situation.

You're obviously not interested in any kind of discussion about the topic, or you wouldn't make shit up.

Well, I assume he's speaking from experience, and he goes by J.P. because his full name is especially embarrassing.

Jean-Ralphio in a revival of Welcome Back, Kotter.

He's not serious all the time; he takes time to visit TMZ and Us Weekly to talk about Britt McHenry!

They're affably clueless, which makes the intensity of Britta's rebelliousness all the funnier.

Lol at this. A complete strawman plus an appeal to a nonexistent authority.

Nice little flashback to "Home Economics" from season 1, when Pierce told the people at Vaughn's show "I'm Pierce! Yeah, the song is about me!"
