I was surprised to actually find the monologue genuinely funny and sharp, and not about singing, or with pointless cameos, or about cast members crashing. It was a lot more like the show used to be, and I wish it still was.

“When was the last time someone smiled as you walked into a room? I can’t imagine anyone deriving joy from seeing such an overprivileged husk of a shallow human being. OKURRR!”

“The passwords have passed, you’ve correctly guessed,

I was at MAGFest, where Phil Moore told an insane Legends story about this one girl who was working her way through a pool of foam bricks or whatever when she lost her lunch.

Perfect execution on hitting your target market. Those kind of descriptions are the kind of thing writers will jump on and spread, taking care of your marketing to the demographic you’re after.

The irony of you throwing a tantrum about other people’s feelings can be seen from space.

Good on the anonymous writer if he truly exists. More corporate summaries should experiment with honesty and emotion, except without the surprise end praise of Joey Fatone

For me, this has become less about Apu and more about the fact that the showrunner of The Simpsons is comfortable sharing an article from the National Review to defend his smirking contempt for fans willing to have a conversation.

This is the problem with these modern outrages: they always have to be so binary about it. I have no problem with people having problems with representation, sexism, tokenism, or any other -ism, but the dialogue always seem to divide up into two camps; you’re either “fer” it or “agin” it with no nuance, very little…

“hyper-sensitive”

Shut the fuck up, you dumbshit. Is that sensitive enough?

The argument that Lisa was the mouthpiece for the writers’ shitty beliefs because she’s Apu’s friend is kind of insane, no?

Have you seen the documentary? It’s not as hyper-sensitive as you may think.

It would mean more if they had not already HAD him. Allowed Bail. Had him commit an even more heinous crime. And then ALLOWED BAIL AGAIN.

Edit: In what world is someone who potentially killed his accuser to avoid a rape conviction NOT a flight risk for a murder charge?

Fucking hell, world.

Does your dog bite?

So this is where we’re at. A movie based on the barely even a GAME arcade hit Rampage not only fucking exists, but gets a B- based on the charisma of the fucking Rock.

That is the laugh of a kid who knows the system is fucked, knows he’s getting locked up for no reason, and knows the actual cop who committed the actual murder got off free.

These type of accomplice laws are bullshit, since there’s been numerous cases of (usually Black boys and men) charged with crimes they didn’t personally commit and may not have even known about.
