i've never liked pewdiepie, and man, even thinking about the way he says "pewdiepie" is making me upset, but this joke is probably one of the least annoying things he's ever done. It's almost funny even.

i would rather be a fat man than a 46 year old in a hockey jersey

Exactly what i was trying to say, but better articulated. Kevin Smith did a proto-version of modern comedy that was fresh when Clerks and mallrats came out, but hasn't aged well now that others have improved on the form. And now that we're probably starting to see the generation inspired by apatow, he's especially…

I also think Kevin Smith movies were relative oases in the desert of 90s comedy. I span both generations, and I can remember liking Kevin Smith, then eventually moving on when stuff like Arrested Development and Eastbound and Down arrived and changed everything.

I don't think the "Elliot is Tyrell" stuff makes much sense—ignoring all their independent interactions with tertiary characters like Gideon, how was Elliot simultaneously a full-time employee at allsafe and a up and coming exec at ECorp? I don't think Elliot is Tyrell, but I am leaning towards Elliot being the final…

it's a great way to shit on Darlene's nonsense punk aesthetic

it might be how the "fuck" is used. I remember hearing somewhere—maybe the south park episode about swearing?—that it matters *how* the swear is used, i.e. "we're fucked" or "you stupid fuck" is different than "i'm gonna fuck that whore's brains out"

I like Mobley, so I wouldn't mind this, but also don't think withholding it adds anything

they're definitely art. For sure. But I'm saying that art at the absolute highest level does not make these corny concessions to bubblegum storytelling. Does not treat the audience like they're incapable of remaining engaged without a cheap hook.

yeah, I probably shouldve just avoided that. That's probably one of the worst ways to open a sentence, really. It's part of the shorthand template for constructing a bad opinion. And other white people are the first to read the worst possible intentions about a statement.

OJ is horrible, but Is there a juice I should be drinking? I drink a lot of (fake) cranberry juice and grapefruit juice. I also drink bolthouse farms stuff pretty regularly.

At this point, wait until the season's over and then catch up. It's very slow, and I didn't mind that when i watched the first 6 or 7 episodes in a binge (having got into Mr.Robot mid season). But now that i'm stuck watching at the same trickle pace as everyone else, the pace does grate on you.

Because this has turned into an attack on my character, I'll be clear:

That's the opposite of my point. My point is that no one likes mad about you

least believable part of the episode. Seinfeld crosses generations. I'm a millennial with black friends who like seinfeld. Mad About You? Might as well have a scene where Leon calls Tim Allen "a master of the form"

I like when the show is slightly exaggerated evil corporatism. If we're gonna go full on X-Files level conspiracy, it might jump the shark pretty hard

if that was the case, the far more satisfying cliffhanger would be to just show tyrell

haha, she's not cool, just desperate

So part of the government is working with ECorp to hide the truth about the power plant Angela had all the incriminating data about? Any theories as to why?

This episode was frustrating. One of my least favorite things about serialized television is the overuse of cheap cliffhanger endings. Enough doorway fakeouts Esmail, jesus christ. That's the kind of thing that keeps shows like Mr. Robot (and even Breaking Bad) from being art on the highest level. It's condescending.
