Making an outdated pop culture reference? (I don't think anyone plays angry birds anymore, do they?)

I'm always somewhat disappointed when these posts get taken down. They're so entertainingly nonsensical. Even gimmick Adam Sandler can't match this level of incoherence, and he's trying to sound like an idiot.

Indeed you did. Though to be fair, the AV Club is pretty predictable.

There's no question that they're secretly relieved. Politicians don't lose any sleep when the judiciary takes a difficult and divisive decision out of their hands. Especially when the politicians in question are anchored to the losing side of the debate. At the same time, conservatives can feign outrage at the

There is something amusing about this huge, elaborate set-up to give him a reason to say "it's a trap", and have him not say it. But the expectation isn't as obvious as it needs to be for the joke to land. The narrative of the rat, and the humanity of killing it, seems to be setting up an entirely different punch

I know this is a joke, but people genuinely have a hard time grasping how trademark protection works. She has the exclusive right to use "This Sick Beat" as a brand in association with various goods and services (including "wind chimes", "covers for cushions" and "candle holders").

Yeah, you tell that straw man.

He can walk out the door and go take pictures at a Justin Timberlake concert. Or any of a thousand other artists. Or of wildlife. If she doesn't offer a licensing deal that makes it worth photographers' time, then she won't get photographed.

Total false equivalency. The photographer isn't producing something creative all on his own, and licensing it to T-Swift. The only reason his pictures are worth anything is because they exploit T-Swift's popularity, and the spectacle of her shows. If there's any analogy, he's the Apple Music. Of course T-Swift can

Music could have been a much more effective way to reach people with this kind of message, rather than writing it out in a rambling Instagram "essay". Which I feel compelled to point out, because Lupe Fiasco is a musician (and is not an exceptionally talented writer).

They'll all download automatically, so brace yourself.

Are there any photos of this kid where he doesn't look like a petulant shit you instinctively want to punch in the face? This isn't a case where you look at the guy and go "really, him? Wow, I guess you never really know someone".

Has the banner image been photoshopped? How else to explain a non-bearded man wearing a VR headset without his mouth agape?

Where is Sean O'Neal?

The games developed by Supercell actually look and play really well (Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, Hay Day).

Fun fact: this advertising totally worked on me, and I downloaded the game and promptly spent real money buying in-game currency.

I haven't seen this movie (and make no mistake, I will not see this movie), but I am 100% certain that Christopher Walken is the only good thing about it. If you can get Christopher Walken, why not just let him star? Does David Spade add anything?

It's spelled "Fiat"

What about Andy Richter Controls the Universe! How could you have an Andy Richter one-season wonder, and have it not be ARCTU? I genuinely liked that show.
