The male version would be regular old Don Quixote. And you see similar figures elsewhere who are too saturated with fiction to function normally, like Ichabod Crane, who jumps at shadows because he stays out too late listening to ghost stories.

Being a “fan” of a mass murdering space nazi is a sad delusion.

So, Marvel cancels Chuck Wendig’s series at the behest of a right-wing troll campaign and then substitutes a story in which, broadly speaking, Darth Vader murders a woman whose fandom is portrayed as a sad delusion?

This is an example of a comment from some other universe, right? Nobody’s that matter-of-fact and mature on the internet.

What a-hole on rotten tomatoes gave it a bad review?

I love gel pens! I do find that my handwriting with a good pen is a blend of print and cursive because of that.

Fountain pens are a niche item, for sure, but they’re making a comeback thanks to brands focused on inexpensive, low-maintenance options. For around $30 you can get something that gives you virtually the same writing experience as the status symbol brands.

And unless the focus of writing goes from being able to communicate with others to just being able to communicate with our future selves, that makes print inherently more practical.

If people don’t learn to write cursive they won’t be able to read it either. So much would be lost.

I understand some people find cursive faster/easier, but if that were the universal experience cursive wouldn’t be this far into decline. It’s not as of this trend only started when laptops entered schools.

From Software’s games seem to encourage a strange mixture of masochism and elitism. And I’m not above it. Soloing Ornstein and Smough feels good in part because you’re always playing a failure montage inside your head, picturing the fight like the instant replay in Super Meat Boy.

I think it says more about how the fandom gives God’s Not Dead a run for its money in insisting that the only people who don’t like it are devil worshippers.

This is actually a much stronger commentary on the fact that if you had anything negative to say about that pointless reboot you were automatically slammed as being a sexist monster.

An alien god from another dimension who can spontaneously generate a 5 story tall monster by ripping the image of it from the mind of a mortal after converting two other mortals into hellhounds can live where it damn well pleases.

Oh come on. Outside of an (unfortunately vocal) very small subset of manbabies, nobody cared that the Ghostbusters were ladies. Everyone, on the other hand, did care that the movie was mediocre to fucking awful.

This is the third movie in a trilogy that began with something that was a Lovecraftian horror film that happened to have some comedy in it...

Well, I hope this actress is not plagued by crazy manbabies for the rest of her life because of this fucking franchise.

First off, this man is such a dick. For him to take a miniscule amount of instances throughout an 80-year history and trying to gaslight people by insisting this was the dominant theme is complete and utterly disingenuous bullshit.

Not a reboot, a new adaptation. Why is it never okay to just say (or allow creators to say) something is a new adaptation of the original work, with no real ties to existing or previously released movies or tv shows?

PUT ST. VINCENT IN THE DAMN MOVIE TOO
