I was responding both to you and the folks who replied under you.

A guy throws out an inoffensive one-liner, and you want to examine his commenting history and find out everything about him? That's just a little bit creepy…

Oh, that's cute. You understood me to be implying that Obama was out of control, and just rockin' it so hard that I couldn't bear to take any more of his swagger.

"We’ve kinda suspected it before, but President Obama genuinely gives no fucks at this point."

I was surprised when I saw the article do the same thing. Watched the trailer and realized, yep, the film-makers don't care either.

Or does it rhyme with "Tub Bareener"?

For some reason, every time I've seen this film on television that scene is edited out. I don't know if it's because of concerns that it's somehow racist, or because the punchline is a swear word (kinda?), or something else, but that's always seemed weird to me.

Cheney would be running the place in three months.

Conversely, I only have heard people refer to themselves as being in the "friendzone" in a self-effacing way. Maybe we just talk to different people, because it is surprising (and sort of hilarious) to me that someone would actually use it in the way you describe. I'm not questioning that there are idiots who use the

I'm sorry if I sound pat with that, but humans have a gamut of emotions, some more positive than others. Raw jealousy is one of them. We shouldn't deny it, and using art as an outlet for our emotions, good and bad, is preferable to ignoring them, or only providing outlet to some. If art was just confined to noble,

No it is not.

Isn't jealousy one of the most common song themes in pop music? I'd bet something like 35% of love songs are of the "he/she outta be with me instead" variety.

In retrospect, it's fun to re-read AV Club articles and accompanying comments between the time the pilot was taped for NBC, rejected, and finally picked up and aired by Fox.

Being annoyed at women, having a dog, being afraid people will think he's gay, and guns are staples of all Bill Burr comedy sets.

Pre-John Mulaney Show, I'd have disagreed with this.

…and suddenly I'm nostalgic for Norm MacDonald-era Weekend Update.

It's when I stopped reading the series. After the gratutiously graphic mauling of Glenn, I realized there were better things to do.

I don't think so, Dunk.

"but the reaction against them is reductive and a lot more childish than either the Doors or Bill Hicks allegedly were."
