I hate that sort of pretentious nitpicking. What have people like that got against escapism? Edit: meant to be a reply to Hairy Palm 's post

I recall, though, that Kevin's dad never felt any guilt at all when Kevin would exhibit cruel behavior. Sure, the dad was a clueless dope, but the book puts all the suffering and remorse on the mom. Yeah, she was the narrator and it was her POV, but I have no use for the message.

Having read the novel, I formed the opinion that Kevin is the bad guy. He's irredeemably broken, it's nature not nurture. If the author wanted me to question the mom's responsibility for her son's actions, it didn't work on me because I hated Kevin so much. I don't know if I should watch this…

Thanks for the info. I can now read future "Louie" reviews with less resentment. Cheers!

It took me more than one viewing to get on Ken's mental wavelength during this episode. I didn't know how he could be so easily confused about his own sexual orientation, and why was he trying to figure things out by listening to frothy disco hits! Then I finally remembered, Hey, it's 1980-something. And then I

I adore the plummy accent he uses there. I also like how the other geeks seem to take it as a reasonable observation.

My most embarrassing breakup was in high school. After less than two months together, I felt it was hopeless—he was kinda egotistical, he constantly talked about how we would always be together, and he was well a little boring. I had never broken up with anyone before, and he was such a puppy, how could I make this

Might explain why I still have my first iPod, which is almost ten years old and has a totally shot battery.

By the way, I don't see a spectacular view.  It's less charming than it is "nononono my body would explode in so many ways nononono."  My God, that scared me!  I was clenching my fists and groaning while watching.  I've been wondering what I would've done in Louie's place.  Suppose he sat down on the ground while

As someone with bipolar disorder whose first manic episode was quite similar to Liz's frantic behavior in this episode:  I hate this review.  Of course I do!  This writer called her self absorbed.  Well, I believe she wasn't, not in the imperious, egotistical sense.  This was a woman with racing uncontrollable

Oh no, and they were such dears!

It all took place in a parallel universe.  You can tell because once Dexter wore that one blue shirt.   Also, the timeline was altered in his reality.  You can tell because there was that car that one time in that scene.

I still think that "House" had the worst finale.  I still long to unsee that.

I honestly don't know why Sam hadn't gotten rid of it long before this episode. 

"Tomatoes" not "Tomatos" turns out to be the correct spelling?  What a waste it is to lose one's mind.

First kiss thing:  I barely remember my first closed-mouth kiss.  But when I was 15, I had my first French kiss with a 17 year old guy.  We were together in a summer theater program, and he seemed so much older, so sophisticated.  My mom drove me out to meet him at a movie theater in Houston, where we watched  "Attack

Yeah, true.  It's nice that they also get to have Emmy with their fun.
