Click-per-pay? You had to pay to click on your own articles? Sounds like a terrible deal.

I was definitely looking for a happy ending …

Seapunk.

I don't like it when comments are pasted from elsewhere, it feels like cheating.

EVERYBODY has that authority, by listening to music, forming an opinion of it, and then stating that opinion.

Did this website mention that it was an Onion-style article when you posted the link? It reads like they posted it as though it was real news, realised they had fallen for a hoax, and then retrospectively edited "according the spoof online publication" (or something to that effect) into every paragraph.

The dub of Spirited Away is vastly inferior. I think it really depends on the individual film, but in Spirited Away the fantastical parts seemed arbitrary rather than rooted in Japanese culture, and all the trials she had to go through made it seem like a videogame. The dub is still good but it doesn't compare to the

Yeah, when the jet of dust streams out at Mae when she goes up to the crack in the wall.

- They interact for a short period of time, in a very mundane way
- They die, but he does not realise it instantly
- The audience can possibly guess

She seemed a little nervous. Your surname is Battleground, you shouldn't be nervous.

"these guys are getting off, and they're using non-consenting people to do it."

I think I got that information from the New Cult Canon review of Clerks, but yeah, things have probably changed since then.

It can be a legitimate aesthetic choice, like the opposite of Sirk's lurid Technicolor. The palette of a cinematographer is, ideally, suited to the tone of the material. I can't think of any strong specfic examples now, only times when colour is used as a motif, or when the difference is mostly in lighting.

I think those involved roping in individuals, whereas this is just doing it in public. And I don't know, is a guy tying another guy's shoelace really disgusting? I would find it amusing. There are probably more offensive sights to be seen in a gym.

We can't comment on Savage Love now? This has ended well.

Johnson?
