I don’t know when the news/political worlds decided that “decorum” should be more important than focusing on any important issues, but it’s very disappointing. Like sure, okay, the day of a crazy event and/or tragedy it’s might be considered in poor taste to go real hard on a subject (or mock it). Maybe, maybe even a…

The network coverage of the convention tonight is pretty disgusting. Goddamn ABC (so not even Fox or something) is fawning all over him, asking their reporter who talked to him about him in hushed, reverential tones, as though he’s not still an evil disgusting menace to the world.

You mean every mentally unbalanced 20 year old with no discernible reason to have access to an AR-15 shouldn’t have it? *this is my shocked face*

Soon everything will be coming up Sheepstealer!

It’s amazing how close we were to losing “America’s Hitler” this weekend.

I could probably spend an entire day trying and failing to come up with a more stomach-turning way to compliment a woman’s posterior. Though it makes very little sense - when has anyone ever heard a guy say something nice about a woman’s body by comparing it to that of a child or the opposite sex?

That's part of his bit. In the Discworld novel, Death always speaks in all caps.

Damn. I had tickets to this. Fuckin’ Trump. 

Just how pissed is our former First Concubine that it was a miss? 

You made such a great point that I didn’t even mind the all caps.

I think we should ask where the Minions were at the time of the shooting 

That’s always one of the classic things in Arnie films, particularly of this era (Jingle All the Way) - That this giant Austrian bodybuilder has a name like Harry Tasker or Howard Langston and absolutely nobody seems to notice he’s unlike anyone else in size and physique. 

Not quite - he and Hamilton didn’t even marry until 1997.

I support anything that makes award shows end faster.

Maybe we should just: “Get over it.” AKA the thing Republicans say whenever a mas shooting happens, while wearing pins that look like AR-15's and posing with them for Christmas cards. I know it is technically an “assassination attempt,” but it feels a consequence of the laws.

That headline is one editing mistake away from being flagged by the Secret Service. I can’t tell if that is the point or not.

Oh yeah ‘If they’re happy’, sorry, I’m still not fully on the trolly with using non gendered pronouns in my writing.  It’s hardish to switch over when you were taught to use gendered pronouns if possibly.

Yeah. Much to my shame, I don’t have a photographic memory of the events of True Lies, so I’m open to the possibility that there are jokes, comments, etc. in the movie that are inappropriate. But none of those things are described in the article. The author’s objection mainly seems to be that the terrorists in the…

I enjoy the unspoken joke of a guy who looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger  going through life pretending to be an unassuming software salesman and everyone just buys it.

Is it xenophobic to depict terrorists as being Arab/Muslim? The movie came out in 1994, two years after al-Qaeda terrorists killed six people trying to destroy the World Trade Center using a car bomb, and four years after the bombing of the U.S.S. Cole killed 17. Of course, in 1994, the most striking examples of…
