the sistine chapel rules but, let's face it, most tropes of modern christianity are mainly enjoyed by goths

ecstasy has no form— it's the transgression & transcendence of form

no character development in the mafia, dude— just when you think you're out, they pull you back in

AV CLUB: why do you make fun of 'Fat Betty' but no one is allowed to make fun of Lena Dunham? WHYYYYY?

Taiwan thinks it's an independent country, China disagrees.

Todd,

No I think the show itself is shallow but I hear what you're saying.

On second thought, maybe it's the perfect insight, because in grappling for positive things to say about this show, you accidentally described the miracle of TV like Girls invented TV. Fitting!

Best comment.

Alternate Theory: Girls is super shallow & thinking "it feels like a to-scale model of real life, in all its pains and joys and terrors, coming to life inside your TV" is also super shallow.

This is exactly the bullshit way we talk about sexual assault: we teach women not to get raped instead of teaching men not to rape.

"lol I'm 12"

"it's the lack of a definitive refusal on her part that makes it non-criminal"

Consent is something you ask for, not something you wait to be denied. Good line!

You almost had it & then ruined it with the Stifler reference! What I'm trying to say is I prefer Role Models.

ahaha yeah "I don't wanna ask first & ruin it"— just like the Louis CK video.

I don't really hesitate to call it sexual assault. That kind of rough handling of someone is only NOT sexual assault when you've communicated to each other that that's what's gonna happen. When you haven't & it's your 3rd date or whatever, that's just you assaulting someone & hoping she's into it.

Hi Todd!

Hi Weeks!
