Holy shit, is that one of the most hostile comment threads I've ever seen on this site. It's like a bronze medal to the ones for Donald Trump on SNL and the study about video game players acting more sexist when they lose.

After constant travel for weddings throughout the whole goddamn summer and goddamn fall, let me assure you that your jet-lagged guests will be thrilled by a mercifully-quick ceremony. Just let them get to the bar and start celebrating your happiness.

We should form a support group - "Drunks Who Play 'Keine Lust' Anonymous"

Da, da! Strong name, like Nikita! Man named Nikita, people know to respect! Is name of masculine, not of "la femme!"

I've actually seen something trending to the reverse - non-Christians who find it weird to say "Happy Holidays" because it gives Hannukah/Diwali/etc. an incorrect interpretation as the "Jewish Christmas" or "Hindu Christmas" or whatever. There are some similarities between the festivals (in the winter, everyone wants…

I didn't believe you at first that it was Cybex, but Wikipedia says you're right. I used to deal with Cybex back in my US government contracting days (Federal agencies buy a lot of their exercise equipment) - i.e., the most hilarious context in which one could have dealt with the producer of the Atlas Shrugged films.

Counter-point: There's a lot of actual value differences that exist in the world, and assuming that you can relate to people who have generations worth of different experience to what you and everyone else you know have had might be the height of hubris if you don't actually take the time to research what the hell is…

Not just a war with Argentina, but also Brazil and Paraguay. Imagine in Vermont was locked in a war of attrition with Massachussetts, New York, and… I dunno… Connecticut. Of COURSE it was doomed.

Thanks for explaining! And of course: seeing double, four reviews.

Wasn't this a C+ yesterday? What caused the change?

I don't know the card game "Asshole", but the similarities in rules and name to "Durak" make me wonder how the two are related.

It certainly is. Halfway through the movie, the title character sits in a corner, aghast and unable to help as a friend chooses not to play a trump card in order to beat triplet sixes, instead choosing to pick them up. The frame rate slows as the friend is forced to take trick after trick, until finally, he's holding…

As a person who enjoys both Jupiter Ascending and Dune, I have to agree!

Even better - it was based heavily on a dream he had. He was describing it to a friend, and the friend said, "Oh, that sounds a little bit like Dune." So Jodorowsky got the rights to make Dune, and started mashing characters into roles that he had literally dreamt up.

This is one of my favorite movies, and not because it's great, or even good - it's just so absolutely weird, with some flashes of genius surrounded by horrible mis-steps, that I can't help but watch it with a goofy grin every time I see it. It's not even a case of being "so bad it's good," but more, "so bizarre that…

You know, hope is a mistake. If you can't fix what's broken, you'll go insane.

I agree the headline emphasizes snark over accuracy, and that the study itself might overstate its case. And as readers, we have the right to express our preference that scientific papers be represented properly. But there's an important difference between, "Uh, you're misrepresenting what is already a limited…

AV Club, how dare you publish a link to a published scientific study without fully conducting a thorough review of the methods used? I demand this entertainment site be a bastion of scientific accuracy! Why, I bet Alex McCown isn't even a qualified peer reviewer! No other website does this, and since I'm forced to…

"Absalom, Absalom" is a fascinating work of his, because the main character describes the South by telling a story of a man who is progressive enough to avoid using sugar (and thereby supporting the homicidal slave trade in the Caribbean), yet is willing to kill his own half-brother to prevent him from marrying his…

Absolutely - these are the kinds of people who you meet every day growing up in the South. People who invite their black friends to come over and drink a beer under a icon-like portrait of Nathaniel Bedford Forrest, and couldn't see how this might be hurtful. People who donate money to help the victims of the…
