I gotta say that Gilpin really outshone Brie in that scene. I guess it makes sense in-universe because Debbie is the successful actress and Ruth doesn't know how to not be affected even in 'real life'.

She's giving me some definite "Allison from Breakfast Club" vibes. I'm into it.

As far as unfairness of the format, I saw a really good comment that basically summed it up for me: the reward you get for doing well all season is that you make it to the final. If the basis for getting crowned was just most wins then there wouldn't be any point in having a final in the first place.

Imagine trying to beat the record and being the one person who fucks it up.

I mean, I thought the ads were meant to be shady and tongue-in-cheek because of the whole Despacito thing, no? At least that's what I thought when I saw them— I was actually kind of impressed at the time that they were being so petty.

Everybody has a fireball plan until they get punched in the face (ironically, by an air fireball counter).

I gather that there is usually more to the conspiracy in some form or the other, eg. the other side of the earth holds immense riches that the elites want to keep you from, ancient aliens live on the other side, etc. Or at very worst, it's an "easy tell," a symptom if you will, for the general information control the…

Scientists get sent crank emails at a healthy rate as it is (especially climate researchers these days). They're pretty efficient at ignoring the more desperate ones by now.

I would if I had no sense of humor, Manotaur!

You joke, but people around the globe believe in a flat earth.

Well obviously there will always be rotten trolls who use it as an excuse to be toxic, but I speak from experience that a lot of the bigger fan communities are fine. The only problem I'd have with them is the usual groupthink, but that affects every large online community (especially ones with voting systems like…

I think part of the reason it seems so vicious is that the drag fanbase has always been kinda bitchy (after all, we get "shade" and "reading" partly from the drag world), but the sarcatic tone gets lost online. It gets a lot less vicious when you realize everyone is doing it for the gag.

The lightning uppercut is only 50% of the reason why this lil gay boy always picked Jin in Tekken 3.

Rogen's characters fall into a very boring type that plays amazingly well with mediocre white guys. But in this matter I give it to him cuz Rob Schneider is a comedic cold sore.

Fight Club still holds up to me because it's self-aware in its examination of that teenaged nihilism that is represented by Tyler Durden. The point of the movie is that protagonist eventually recognizes the Tyler side of himself as the immature kid that he is, and outgrows him (but too late for bad stuff not to…

Your opinion about my opinion is objectively wrong, because vagina is amazingly fun to say.

True. I guess for me the power is taken away because the guy effectively escapes the worst of it by having it done "properly." And I'm sure that as gruesome as the operation scene is, the showrunners would have found a way to make a more 'primitive' method even more horrifying (if they so chose).

Not that I disagree with her about low-hanging fruit…. but every single female comedian can spend the next 10 years talking about nothing but their vaginas and it would add but a dust mote in the wasteland of dumb sex jokes male comedians have been making since forever.

But can we use the lipstick to shut up mansplainers for the duration of a meeting? Inquiring minds want to know.

Now's the best time to join the Navy. There won't be any loose lips sinking ships anymore thanks to Mensez.
