“Oh, I’m just a girl living in captivity
Your rule of thumb make me worrisome
Oh, I’m just a girl, what’s my destiny?
What I’ve succumbed to is making me numb...”

This shit is nuts

No doubt.

“Friends say this move has turned into a nightmare,” the source says. “This is the toughest period they’ve had so far without a No Doubt.”

Just gonna re-post my reply to JakeyKakey’s comment here in case he dismisses it:

Violent video games aren’t pushing a specific violent political agenda. This is a bad comparison.

This show about pretend children is making real political arguments. Crazy, I know. Metaphor and all that.

The episode’s moral was “fag is an okay slur to use, because when people use it they don’t necessarily use it against gay people”. I love South Park but that’s wrong on so many levels.

And thanks to the monsters at South Park, The Libertarian party got a shocking 3.29% of the vote. THE DAMAGE THEY HAVE DONE CANNOT POSSIBLY BE OVERSTATED

A lot of South Park’s humor is trolling based, making jokes that they know would offend people (especially those who cared about trying to make things better) and when they did, just say they were joking. It was funny and they were really good at it but the DNA of that sort of humor was appropriated by people who use…

nobody’s denying there are problems, but it’d be pretty dumb to deny South Park’s cultural impact. a) wildly popular and b) it’s constantly being pretty damn didactic politically — in fact, it’s primarily known for commenting on current events.  Even its original short was vaguely “political” with its Santa vs Jesus…

Nice false equivalency. This is a popular show that’s been on the air for nearly 20 years now and has a distinct Libertarian bent and likes to comment on current events through that lens. Hence why you get stuff like “Douche vs. Turd” nonsense.

It’s ostensibly more progressive than an author in 2020. This narrative tradition has two parts: one is to depict the murderer as a “deviant,” and the other is to obfuscate the meaning of “deviancy” so that the fiction is unmoored from reality. Norman Bates and Buffalo Bill and the guy from Dressed to Kill have no…

Seems an apt time to post this oldie...

Harry Potter is a better name for a detective and Cormoran Strike should have been the boy who lived.

I kept expecting to read that in the article. MacFarlane is clearly doing a Paul Lynne impression.

That’s obviously Roger in disguise.

I’m surprised there is no mention of Paul Lynde, one of the most obvious inspirations for Roger.

He’s a good voice actor and singer. He’s a lousy writer.
