Until about February, I was still convinced Jeb was going to somehow get the nomination. It seemed obvious until it wasn't.

The saddest thing is that all of that is true. He wouldn't even be lying. However, it's not like those of us who care strongly about that sort of thing are going to vote for Trump or risk him winning.
That was so close to being a sentence.
I think about 90% of Bernie supporters will vote for Hillary. The other 10% mostly won't bother voting, with maybe 2% going for Stein or even Johnson.
Surely even Trump isn't that stupid. The last thing Trump needs to do is create more publicity for Gary Johnson. He's the Libertarian Bernie, one of those rare guys who, even if you disagree with his policies, you've got to admire his integrity and honesty. If enough people become aware of him that he is allowed in…
Even Ted Cruz, a man whose family was put through pure hell by Trump's incredibly brutal and personal campaign against him, is going to support Donald Trump. I'm sorry, but how can even somebody as stupid as Cruz not see this whole situation as a wake up call that he's fighting for the wrong side?
I hate this kind of thinking. Right now, there's more good music being created than ever before, because there is so much more music being made. There has always been shitty music. Baby Boomers act like music died in 1980, but do you know who one of the biggest selling artists of the 1960s was? Pat Boone. I feel like…
I would be very interested to hear his justification for this.
That could be hilarious. Go write for them!
Agreed. I tuned out after the first time Trump was on the show. They hyped that interview up like it was the fucking Super Bowl, and all it ended up being was a glorified photo-op for Trump. I realize CBS probably won't let him, but Stephen didn't ask him one tough question and downplayed how horrible he is. I had…
I remember that. Her comments were disgustingly hyperbolic. Even if they had intentionally tried to piss her off, you don't compare that to sexual assault without coming away from it looking like a fucking idiot.
I think this is further evident in just how utterly generic and pathetic Top 40 radio is today. Outside of a few flukes who have all been around for years (Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Adele), there's nothing that can truly be considered art on pop radio. I'm not saying that as a snob, and I hate when people act like all…
Props for mentioning Pollard and Adams, btw. Those guys are so prolific that I can't keep up with everything, but they're both great.
I discovered Built to Spill when I was a young teenager through that song being used on Six Feet Under.
He implied that Car Seat Headrest doesn't make "original music," so I refuted that.
I think it's because music, more than any other art form, is almost exclusively looked at in the mainstream as just a product. It's background noise most people don't give a shit about. You have to actually make the effort to watch a film or even a TV show, but most people never stop and think about music or take it…
I know. By that logic, Tarantino absolutely could have been sued for making Django or Inglourious Basterds.
"You Were Right" is a killer track. Best song on Keep It Like a Secret. I had to put it on just now!
Moreover, it's no way at all to treat your fans. It's not like Toledo was being some hipster like "yeah, fuck the Cars, I'm gonna make fun of those losers." He was a fan coming from a sincere place and incorporated an homage into his song. I can't respect anybody who crushes that. It's like Paramount trying to kill…
In spite of the sorry sequel, I'd still recommend the first one. It's not necessarily worth going out of your way to see, but unlike the sequel, it has some big laughs and a heart. It says something that the funniest part of Neighbors 2 is a Holocaust joke accidentally made by Seth Rogen. There were a few laughs…
