This happened to me two weeks ago! Literally every other one of my friends from college was invited to the bachelor/bachelorette party and I wasn't, even though I was in town early the same as everyone else. I felt pretty left out.

I don't agree per se; even though Spain is a European country, I honestly think that to many people (even subconsciously) it reads as "less white." Spain is included as a country of origin in the official designation of "Hispanic"). You could say the same of countries such as Albania or Greece. Incidentally, it really…

"A better question might be, 'Why make the family British, not Spanish, as they were in real life?' But the answer to that is fairly obvious too: Bayona probably couldn’t get The Impossible made on a big enough scale with Spanish stars, and given that the story is really about the family’s search for one another, it…

Tucker Max has an essay about this (my impression is that he got so bored with having sex with normal women that he moved on to collecting girls with abstruse conditions). He liked it too.
