Knowing who has provided the President of the United States with money is very, very important. He is obviously corrupt as fuck, and knowing exactly who he owes money to is absolutely vital for American democracy right now.

What is wrong with freezing beef?

Smoke rings and other similar tricks have a long history.

Why do all the videos (that I clicked on anyway) show him doing the same building thing at the beginning? Once you have seen that once, do you need to see it again?

In all of that, at least they are getting rid of the pseudoscience of polygraphs. They are barely a step up from the ducking stool in terms of reliability.

I just don't agree that an artist has a right to determine the interpretation of a piece of art, so that is not something I can defend.

I guess I am more into the Death of the Author idea than you. I think context matters far more in a work of art than the authors intent. If all the banks left Wall Street or if all the banks turned into socialist cooperatives, the bull statue would immediately have a completely new meaning. Would the sculptor have a

Heh! Mr Snyder, can I have your autograph?

His work only had meaning because of the context of the location it was in. He derived meaning for his bull from the fact that it is in a location already supplied with the artefacts of capitalism. The girl has meaning because of the things around her too.

I think we have the outcome of Martha's life. Alone in a world she doesn't understand and where she will probably never be happy or fulfilled. We don't need any more than that one, tragic shot of her doing what passes for shopping.

My theory is that his daughter saw the footage and was sad, and so he bombed something to make his daughter happy.

Also, Hitler didn't do it to his own people. That right there. That is the pure, weapons grade antisemitism.

I eat at McDonalds about once a year I guess. I always order the same thing. Big Mac. Six nuggets. Coke, no ice.

Batman's a scientist.

Counterpoint: No. They are not necessarily heroes either.

Yes, clearly getting an old man to impersonate a war hero after sneaking onto an air force base illegally and using illegal shots from the base in your commercial is no different at all from speeding.

It won't be a crime. Being a criminal gets you disbarred, doesn't it? And while he has changed his name, Saul Goodman still has a valid license to practice law. There will be some event that causes him to lose his reputation, but it won't be a criminal act.

I honestly thought Chuck smirked in the light from the window after Ernesto heard the tape. And Chuck said he had a plan…

But at least Veep is funny.
