Who knew all it took for Leslie Jones to have a great starring sketch was for her to get into a heated Weezer debate with Matt Damon? Such a wonderfully niche yet all-too relatable premise executed perfectly.

Like so many other devoted Deadspin readers, I’ve read every single word Drew has written over the last decade or so. He’s just about my favorite voice on any topic he chooses to cover. I’ve watched the entire internet be influenced by his style since the KSK days.

One thing Drew wrote last year(about John Krakauer’s biography of Pat Tillman) that has stuck with me ever since:

Drew, love everything you write and say on your dumb podcast. I hate reading books and read all yours within the same week of starting them. You are a marvel with words and every bit the crotchety and yet truly endearing man I want to be like one day. The love you write with when talking about your kids and wife is…

The really sad thing about this ep was that while it was a lovely skewering of the bullshit dominance mumbo jumpbo that the right wing buys into, the gang is still not as terrible as the people they are parodying.

I like her performance, because she nails the most important part of the “ditzy broad” character - you’re never quite sure whether she’s very stupid, or very smart about pretending to be stupid.

They look so happy!

No, sweets, I don’t want a response from The Atlantic or its bigoted writers. I’m perfectly fine dissembling their hateful garbage from over here where I don’t give them a shred of credibility through further association nor do I lend credence to the idea that we can re-package and re-market their bigotry with…

The rather unprofessional approach to interview aside, and I don’t want the meat of this article to get lost in the anger (righteous, albeit)...

My boss believes in all of this stuff (anti-vax, anti-flu shot, anti-milk, 9/11 conspiracy stuff) and constantly tells me that I need to get myself “educated” like him and how “surprised” he is that a smart person like me would just blindly believe whatever society tells me. As if reading geocities pages from rambling…

Congratulations to Kirby Howell-Baptiste for surviving both this show and Barry!

I think the French lady was saying “ours,” which is French for “bear.”

Mitchell and Webb did it best, I think

Loved this bit. McCarthy’s so talented. Between her Mrs. Che and Bailey’s bit, the guests on this week’s Weekend Update were fantastic. Lifted up a rather meh offering otherwise.

My crush on Michael Avenatti continues unabated.

This series is adapted from a series of “Villanelle” novels (this is not a spoiler; it’s in the opening credits of every episode). Not having read them, and unless Villanelle is simply a code name that may be used by other assassins in her group, we can expect her to survive. It would not shock me if Eve is dead by…

Given the contextual evidence, their true belief never actually manifests in anything except anti-abortion propaganda, so I think trivialization is perfectly in this instance.

No, I was trying to imitate downplaying a lot of character and plot development. There was a lot of development in both Empire Strikes Back and The Last Jedi.

Well the Rebels did lose all their ships, an extremely fortified planet and most of their members... They don’t have the near-infinite resources + soldiers that the First Order has.

I don’t see how it would have detracted from the films at all to have simply spent two minutes giving us a rundown of how he showed up on the scene to get it over with instead of leaving it as this thing dangling over the movie.
