    People already gave Gabby Douglas shit for not putting her hand over her heart during the national anthem.

    Why wouldn't she go to the media? Get her kid some free sympathy press and distract from Golden Boy Phelps over there with all his medals like his shit don't stink? It's a win-win.

    Supposedly he told the mugging story to his mom first and she told the media, so my guess is he made it up as an excuse for why he talked to Rio cops. He just didn't think about there being security cameras everywhere in a huge city hosting the Olympics or that there were other people with him.

    All he has to do is keep dyeing his hair stupid colors and make friends with a dictator and he can be the new Dennis Rodman.

    They told the truth after it was clear they were screwed. Not exactly profiles in courage.

    It's not at all surprising that the asshole who made up the story in the first place fucked off out of the country and left the lesser assholes to get busted.

    They kept talking about Gatlin's mistake of looking to the left too soon. Like "Hey kids, that thing he just did? Don't do that!" Way more talking about his fuck-up than his rivalry with Bolt.

    I don't see the media treating Bolt that way at all. From what I've seen, NBC's coverage of him has been glowing.

    More like ear infucktions, right bruh?

    Watching Michael Phelps winning all those medals last week made me wish I'd stuck with competitive swimming as a kid. Then this stuff about Lochte and the other douchebros came out and reminded me why I quit.

    1313 seemed like was gonna be something really cool, and I still don't understand why Disney pulled the plug.

    He always seemed to add extra syllables to words. Like "I wanna take you for graantaaud, well I wee-ill, well I wee-ill".

    I never hated Rob Thomas for anything personally. He seemed like a good enough dude, he just wrote crappy, boring songs for people who were more interested in buying CDs than listening to music.

    New Adventures In Hi-Fi is easily my favorite R.E.M. album. I remember people complaining that it didn't sound like Monster (which was a HUGE album among my friends back then) but I always thought it was the logical next step. And having it be Bill Berry's last album in the band gives it some extra significance on top

    My main problem with Massive Attack is that because Mezzanine is such a FUCKING INCREDIBLE ALBUM that the rest of their stuff suffers for it. I know there's plenty of good stuff on their other albums, but I can never get over Mezzanine. "Black Milk" is one of the sexiest goddamn songs I've ever heard.

    And then after his leg healed, he crashed his vintage WW2 fighter plane on a golf course and walked away from the wreck. Because he's goddamn Indiana Jones.

    Not at all. I just wish conservatives would admit that the racist southern Democrats of the first half of the last century became Republicans.

    And because I'll probably never see this movie (too busy doing literally anything else), can someone tell me if D'Souza mentions the massive shift in party affiliation that occurred among southern Democrats after LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act?

    Jeez, how many rightwing sites linked to this review? The sentence structure of many of the comments here is notably worse than usual.

    Ant-Man should be on the list. With Peyton Reed, Edgar Wright, and Adam McKay involved at different points it has a pretty great pedigree. Plus it's just really funny. Michael Pena's stories, the part where "Plainsong" starts playing during the briefcase fight, and it manages to be a self-aware superhero movie without
