I think he may have had breasts in mind when he wrote that.  On the other hand, the notion that breasts are genitals is one he should probably be discouraged from holding.

Well fucking played, sir.

How often do you get a chance to tell Jesus he has no idea what he's talking about?

You'd be surprised what high school kids are into.  Modern rock radio is such a mess, they're still playing shit from the 90s, and teenagers are still listening to it because they don't know any better.

Fucking kids who think they've found good music just because their parents hate it.

I think of this more as a ritual sacrifice.  Since the community thrives on hate and snark, they offer us a review of something terrible to bring us together, renew the bonds of our fellowship and get some good ol' hate and snark on.

Anyone who seriously makes that argument would have to agree as a corollary that anyone who wishes Obama had not been elected is a racist.

If you want to define racism as one tribe holding a grudge or rivalry against another tribe, then yes, that's been around more or less forever.

I want to be angry with you, but that was pretty darn funny.

Just like suicide is the best defense against murder!

I'm going to disagree.  I dated an eastern European girl in high school, and her mom was still quite slim and attractive.

Consensus absolutely granted.

The context of your quotation implied incredulity.

Mr. Hollywood, do you really think that's what went down?  That this guy doodled a Joker in his spare time, and DC took that and turned it into something marketable?  This guy was a DC employee.  He designed the Joker in the effort to make something marketable.  And the company proceeded to reward him with precisely…
