You sound white.

I'm certainly not going to speak on behalf of Native Americans, but I think the issue is white people wearing feathers and war bonnets on their heads as a fashion statement without realizing that those are valued items in Native American culture. It's similar to white people who claim to be into Japanese culture, but

I think they justify it as "artistic."

Oy vey!

Surely we will now take Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens seriously as grown up, serious artistes.

This movie ain't gonna make a plug nickel when it comes out.

Love his books (even the yoga memoir was self-effacing and very entertaining), and he's an amusing chap on Facebook, but, in addition to having an almost pathological need for validation as a "cool dad," he's one of those people like Kevin Smith who find it necessary to mention as often as possible that they smoke

Full disclosure: I've only seen the first episode of Girls, as I don't have HBO and I'm too lazy to torrent obtain it through perfectly legal means. However, I do follow a lot of discussions about it, and the biggest problem for me with the anti-Girls contingency is how much of their dislike for the show is based in

I hope for the sake of Lutz's fragile psyche, they don't bring up The Amityville Horror 2, which was both the best and the worst in the series.

It was, I'm going to guess that this kid was bullied by the stepfather into believing that this stuff actually happened. He would have been, what, like 8 at the time? You can convince an 8 year-old of a lot of crazy shit.

Oh. I forgot it was Wednesday.

I've…never seen Veronica Mars. Do I need to turn in my AV Club secret decoder ring?

Comedy Central's audience skews very heavily towards young males. I'd be shocked if this survives a full season.

…disappointed sigh…

Like some people who say they have fibromyalgia or gluten intolerance, far more vinyl collectors think they’re audiophiles than actually are.

I went to a Jim Henson retrospective at the Museum of the Moving Image last year, and they showed an early art film he had made, probably in the mid to late 60s. It wasn't necessarily "adult," per se, but it was definitely weird and not very Muppet-like. It was kind of awesome.

Taylor Coleman, on the other hand, has desires beyond just dating, even though her father expressly forbids it. She spends most of the first episode talking about how she wants to be a porn star because of all of the attention they get, or a stripper because of their freedom.
It's shameful that Lifetime would exploit

It still doesn't sound good.

This is such an asshole premise for a show. "Oh, you know that dish you love making for your friends and loved ones? Here's a version I made that makes yours look like a big pile of dog turds! Isn't this fun?"

How is the name "Tyler Perry" not attached to this?
