I was already too old for it when it was on... I just remember my much younger brother watching it. SO THERE. I’M OLD LEAVE ME ALONE.

No but these kids were little kids when that show was on, right? Was it on in the mid-2000s? Wait, nevermind, I don’t wanna know.

My 4-year-old niece is in love with Freddie Mercury... there’s hope, everyone.

OMG I LOVE THAT MOVIE

When Farrah Fawcett died, one of my student workers was all “Who?” Can I just say, when I was 20, I knew who the cultural icons from my grandmother’s era were. Kids are fucking depressing sometimes.

I had *such* a crush on Alasdair.

At least it wasn’t “old shit like Beck and the Strokes”..........

News to me too.

Ditto on your thoughts. The “girls seem hot” comment probably did the reviewer in, but saying it’d make decent porn does align with the comments regarding her dialogue and weak plot. Granted, that describes a lot of the garbage Hollywood’s putting out there, but I guess the competition might have been going for…

I think the objection comes in that it’s usually white people saying that to non-white people, and there’s a sense of entitlement in commenting on another’s physicality unique to white people’s approach. The history of how black bodies have been objectified just gives it a different tone than someone telling me my…

I don’t get the older person desire to use popular slang anyway. If a word is naturally part of your social group’s vocabulary, then sure, but shit like this just makes those think pieces sound like they’re written by Regina George’s mom.

I don’t think refusing to participate in appropriation is all that silent.

I thought the same thing. I didn’t know that word is popular slang now until I read the article, and I was a bit confused because I’d always heard it as interchangeable with “fuckbuddy.”

(that wasn’t a serious suggestion)

Yeah, I totally get that. It just seems like more effort is put into punishing (inadequately) sexual predators than trying to stop them from acting on those impulses in the first place. I dunno, try some Clockwork Orange shit on them or something.

“Good thing I have renter’s insurance.” YES.

I don’t get the kid thing at all. There is absolutely nothing sexual about a youngster. Hell, I feel squicky checking out the cute baseball players in their early 20s, nevermind teenagers, or worse.

That movie came out the year I graduated high school, so yeah. Loved it; will watch the sequel.

Yeah I’ve heard people talk about destination weddings as a means of discouraging less favored family members from attending, but all I can think is BUT WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO THE PEOPLE YOU LIKE?

That isn’t *totally* unreasonable. If you’re that particular but can afford to take care of it, whatever.
