What’s not normal about it? She’s trying to be diplomatic and kind. I guess that does seem pretty unusual to the Very Online.

I’ve seen Aidy Bryant break in sketches for sure, but she’s typically better at soldiering on and recovering than anyone else in the cast.

Ehhh... it’s a descriptive phrase. It means exactly what it sounds like it means. It’s extremely well known in pop music fan circles. I think in this day and age it’s condescending to define every term someone might not be familiar with, since googling is dead simple.

LMGTFY:

Except we don’t have to just accept the feeling that “ignorance, greed, and hatred” are pretty common across demographics. I don’t know of a good measure for greed off the top of my head, but we’ve got plenty of education data and survey data to tell us quite clearly that boomers and Xers are more ignorant and more…

Just put a dab of super glue in there. Problem solved forever!

You’re the one who said you’d “be skeptical” with things on the service because some of them weren’t actually produced by Netflix. You’re the weirdo in the thread - Strossus was just clarifying. Fucking grow up.

People who don’t understand fiat currency are too checked out of reality for your reminder to penetrate their brains. So I’d suggest that the audience that understands what you’re talking about is bored by it because it’s obvious, and the ones who don’t get it aren’t about to.

And what does your technically correct statement add to the discussion? I’m genuinely asking. Literally everyone knows all money is pretend - some of it’s a LOT MORE pretend than the rest.

There is no blockchain without cryptocurrency, because there’s no incentive to serve as a node (or whatever they’re calling it now) unless you’re mining currency.

I’m disappointed that Farm to Table by Bartees Strange is nowhere to be found here. But Rammstein somehow gets a slot? Baffling.

Maybe work on at least the slightest bit of understanding, then, before telling other people “I don’t think you know what a judge’s job is”? If you don’t have the context to analyze the discussion at hand, better to remain silent than show up spouting nonsense.

You are 100% in the wrong here. Judges don’t just impartially apply laws as written: they are tasked with INTERPRETING the laws. The laws as written do not specify that male partners are in charge of their pregnant partners’ behavior - that’s a twisted interpretation being forced on society by judges who have…

Bear what out? That bigots hate to be called bigots? Yeah, we knew that already.

Yeah, that poor multi-millionaire, they really screwed him. You definitely found the injured party here - good work.

The fallacy of “cancel culture” is that it’s this scary new phenomenon. It’s not! It’s just that all these dumb motherfuckers getting “cancelled” signed up for an Internet platform that invites everyone to contact them every day all day long and share their thoughts. There isn’t a single year in the advent of modern…

You’re not arguing in good faith, so of course you’re going to pre-dismiss anyone else trying to engage on the issue. You’re proud not to have empathy for other people: great work, you deserve a medal.

I love it when someone just lies out of their ass and pretends they know what a “majority of people” believe. Unless you have decent polling data on it, you have literally no fucking idea what “most” people think - you only know what a few people personally known to you think.

So you admit you have no idea what you’re talking about, yet still want to weigh in? Classic.

Nothing like pointless gatekeeping to prove to everyone that you couldn’t produce an incisive analysis of comedy to save your life. The words “stand-up comedy” are marketing tools, and that’s it. Stop letting marketing hijack your brain and think about the world more broadly. Why does it matter what people selling the…
