That’s the symptom, not the disease. We need a populace who can and want to be able to tell the difference between a reputable news source and a social media site.

And yet the one thing you chose to comment on (until this ridiculous diatribe here) was a cop’s honest and compassionate reaction to what had to be a completely horrific discovery. Excuse him for being human.

It is a little annoying, but we don’t know his age? Maybe the guy saying that’s old enough to be her dad and was comparing her to his daughter mentally? (trying to think of best case scenario here)

seriously, wtf was that? Yeah, he’s cute, but why we gotta joke about him getting sexually assaulted? On Jezebel? The fuck?

Just say no to sexual assault jokes.

I agree with MrsBatman. I’ve never given up because of the physical if the social chemistry and flirting was there that quickly.

If any one of these ladies seemed particularly nice, I have a suggestion: Ask her. E-mail the lady, and ask if you could speak to her briefly on the phone, not related to dating. Set up a time. Tell her that this has happened several times lately, and you would like to know if she noticed anything that might be…

99% chance it’s not about sex.

Let’s note the very different takes from Jezebel on two very similar events here. Amy Schumer mocks Trump at a show and gets positive coverage; Dave Chapelle mocks Hillary at a show and gets negative coverage.

People who hate all lawyers because they’ve been told to suck and are boring too.

I’ve never commented here before.

well, in our defense, i don’t give a shit that you ride a motorcycle, either.

Okay. As someone who used to read Bill Simmons religiously, whatever style of writing he ushered in as an unapologetically enthusiastic fan writing from a personal perspective that helped end the days of the pompous, annoyingly overliterate sports columnist is done better by many nowadays. His writing is bad. I…

It’s become a groupthink echo chamber, like Breitbart for the far left. I’m a godless pinko liberal myself, but extremism of any sort, left or right, is noxious and easily dismissed, betraying the very causes they purport to endorse.

The Jez generation have been trained to parse every image and utterance for transgression against the new orthodoxy. This goes for everything from old TV shows to family photos to commercials to whatever you put in front of them. They can’t just switch it off. It’s always running, it’s reflex.

The Prestige TV Show Hot Take Economy is extremely bad and dumb, but so is arguing that the way that we talk about and depict our world in fiction is irrelevant and not worth talking about in general. Granted that many people do it in a way that is stupid and wearying - that doesn’t invalidate the broader principle…
