I think you’re looking at it a little too black and white. Life in the USSR was not ideal, but just because it wasn’t Western capitalism doesn’t mean they were the opposite. What you’re thinking of is more of the Stalin era, which WAS miserable, especially post WWII when paranoia was rampant, the country had been…

To be fair, we Americans tend to think D-Day was THE turning point for the entire war. You can thank Steven Spielberg for a lot of that (not that he had malicious intentions but Saving Private Ryan has really shaped the narrative of WWII for Americans.)

If you think they should have attempted Russian accents, look no further than Keri Russel’s attempts on The Americans.

While there’s a lot of bad stuff that seems to be getting worse, shit like this would have happened without Trump. And it’s been happening forever.

You forgot the part where they have a huge paunch but they’ve just GOT to wear that fucking skintight gear that makes them look like someone opening pilsbury biscuit dough. If you’re truly into a cardiovascular based form of exercise, activity, or competition, you’re not sporting everydad’s beer gut.

Head on down to Brighton Beach and ask them about life in Soviet Ukraine.  It was not great.

Wut.  Please elaborate

Baby Boomer women will protect their men until their death. A “liberal” Boomer is just an older person who isn’t blatantly racist (which they grew up with) and likes the idea of women having some rights, but not all of them.

Going to an all boys high school was the most eye opening thing ever.  Honestly, everyone should have to attend one for a month.  Everyone would “get it” immediately.  The most toxic place I’ve ever experienced.

Like Hillary? You mean the former Senator, Secretary of State, and candidate who got 3 MILLION more votes than Trump?

Plenty of stuff isn’t FDA approved that’s sold with “health benefits”.  The entire supplement industry is this way.  Vaping too.

Everything went out the window after 3. Like wtf is that series about, seriously

I don’t think I can ever leave NYC now. Sure, the rent is high and a lot of shit sucks, but I’m from the South. I’ve seen firsthand how the Republicans fuck the shit out of their constituents. You can all yell at me about NYCHA and Deblasio and taxes and whatever else you want, but it’s nothing like the fucking South.…

I still stand by my love for Significant Other.  It was so perfectly late 90s angst.  

Santeria was and still is a song we white people love at 2 AM in the bar. It’s easy to remember, it’s easy to sing along to, and it’s nostalgic. It was EVERYWHERE when it came out, and you can put that shit on at a backyard bbq with a bunch of people in their 30s and you can just watch people start saying things like…

They’re more caloric than I expected them to be (granted, I’m basing it off veggie burger 1.0s like Morningstar, which is 170), with my frame of reference being 90 and 93 percent lean beef (200 and 170 calories for 4 oz, respectively).

As long as Michael Bay and Roland Emmerich keep making movies, action movies will always be trying the ol’ tongue-in-cheek ridiculousness.  Also Fast and the Furious.

It’s a fair question, because the amount of movies from the 80s that were trying to be serious or somewhat serious that now come off as straight-up lampoon-ish was pretty damn high. For instance, Cocktail - that movie was absolutely made with a straight face, and it is a batshit crazy movie. See also: Footloose and St…

I’ve lived in 8 different cities (including Houston, Atlanta, Richmond, Memphis) and nothing comes close to NYC, and I’ve only been here 11 of my 37 years. I used to travel for work a lot to San Antonio and holy shit, I would pay twice my rent just to never live in one of those types of places again. There’s a reason…

No one’s ever going to look back on their life and say “Man, I really cherish those years in Columbus.”  Because they’ll just say “Oh and I also lived in Columbus for a while/a long time.”
