As Ryan Vlastelica noted above, a lot comes down to clicks. But I would be thrilled if they would do something to fix this. I think they need to stop having their regular contributors take care of book reviews (since they totally understandably seem to gravitate towards a topic that may interest them or is written by…

I appreciate you taking the time to make that very thorough response. I've definitely suspected that clicks play a big role in what gets selected and I really can't dispute the reasoning behind that. But I do note that the number of literary novels tends to be extremely low, and as I said above there's never even been…

This is the by and far the worst kind of trolling. If you're going to do something, do it right and actually be clever and funny. Accusing me of being a shut in with cats? Just fucking lazy.

Jon Stewart had the best description for Friends: ”Friends follows the adventures of six attractive New Yorkers who drink coffee, dream life's dreams, and expertly avoid the city's minority population.”

My wife despises the movie Moneyball for basically this same reason. She says it takes place in a world where women basically don't exist. Anywhere. Maybe for a few moments in the background, but it's like the main characters aggressively avoid being in proximity to a woman at all times.

Normally the only profile picks around here that look like yours belong to the spambots. So, what I'm asking is, are you single?

Counter-point: this chick is hilarious and this video is hilarious. Great Job Internet is so routinely awful that I expected this to be awful but then I laughed out loud pretty much the whole way through.

So…you snark people and when they respond reasonably you make condescending comments about their replies comparing them to your bitch ex wife? It's raining here but surely the weather is too nice where you are to waste it trolling people on the AVClub. Go outside.

And apparently there doesn't even need to be any connection between the two clips mashed together.

This comment is simply wrong. The AVClub has tremendous focus on lesser known arthouse films, alternative music, and specialty publishing. It covers pop culture; it is not exclusively a pop culture website.

I personally find all the AVClub book coverage incredibly disappointing. It seems every book they review is either authored by a celebrity or is about pop culture. It would be nice if they did more reviews of quality literature. I checked back a while ago and they've never even reviewed a Booker prize winning novel!

Round is a shape! *bully punches me in face*

It's not really something that you can translate into a film either because it's such a specific in unique state of mind.

Are you calling me fat?

That's really hilarious. Reminds me of a dream I had where I stopped for gas, filled the tank, went inside to pay for a pack of smokes, and then got in my car and drove away. Zany stuff!

Ha, I knew it was common but who knew this many people have this experience??

I will. I usually start with trying to move my limbs and I get progressively more limber until I sort of wake myself up.

Can we just talk about The Nightmare, and sleep paralysis and shadow men for a minute? Because that shit happens to me. It is absolutely fucking awful. I get sleep paralysis fairly regularly where I try to force myself to properly wake up but I can't. Sometimes there will be something freaking me out, like I can sense…

I'm a doctor too ya dingus.
