@Dikachu:disqus It's okay, though, because 17-year-old chipmunks and genies can often be considered "older than their chronological age".

It's not surprising, since the site is reputed to have only the smartest and most clever of commenters.

Me too. I think I'm going to-toro up.

When I read the headline, I thought for a second that O'Neal had composed his funniest and meanest obituary to date.

But you may ask, "What's the best hip-hop/rap song in Newfoundland's storied history?"  Well, the answer would be "Trikes and Bikes" by Bannerman Park's own Gazeebow Unit:

@avclub-6beb5f589a9fd04c21fcd50db3d9c80c:disqus What an awesome song!  Thanks for sharing!

I had no idea you were a fellow NLer, s.a.p.  Right on, b'y.

So good.  The trousers/pants quip is pure gold.

@avclub-a74751295995aad6799bb16021522543:disqus If "a little part of your soul" is your poetic way of referring to ejaculate, then yes.  Yes it does.

Thanks, @avclub-a74751295995aad6799bb16021522543:disqus .  And sorry to step on your slashfic turf.  I started writing mine before I saw your awesome post.

@Scrawler2:disqus I'm working on it.  Here's an excerpt:

I don't really get internet commenting at all, outside of the AV Club.

Hey, I totally agree.  In fact, I wrote a paper / thesis chapter on the movie where I argue that there is no definably "moral" element of film spectatorship, unless we qualify the conventions and expectations of the given genre as an "ethical" contract between audience and film-maker(s).  Therefore Haneke's insertion…

I think this movie is actually a lot deeper than people give it credit for.  For one thing, the shock of the character talking to the screen in a thriller is really interesting.  Why is it that this gesture works so well as a comedy trope - Haneke borrowed it from Tony Richardson's Tom Jones adaptation - but carries…

The German one is also interesting in that Arno Frisch, who plays the smarter tormentor, had starred as Mühe's video-obsessed son in Benny's Video, Haneke's excellent second feature film.  The Oedipal overtones of the casting are a great inside joke.

Those girls won the game, then.  See this Sight and Sound interview Haneke gave after the release of the first version:

And with the rest of us.

Yes, your Mom did mention that you were handsome last night.  Only it sounded like this "Muh thunh ith wewwy hanthom" [her mouth was full at the time]

Interesting recommendation.  I would probably go with the ol' "mousetrap in the cleavage" trick, but to each their own.

Yeah, my wife often reaches out in passing and grabs or briefly massages my dick over my pants with no warning.  Usually I don't mind it, but sometimes it startles me and a couple of times it's creeped me right the fuck out.  I'm not sure if I want ask her to stop or not, though.
