“They call it the boot of a car here, but we call it a trunk.”

This article is about how his mum loves him.

Vitriol may well come from the comments, naturally. I re-read the article, however, and I could find none. It simply notes the facts and the key one is that his mum “harbors no ill will toward her son” which seems not much like vitriol.

Rick is a genius who is smart enough to be aware of his own hang-ups but never quite smart of enough to change them; and his inability to accept this, to work on himself in any way at all, means that he spends most of his time coming up with increasingly elaborate ways to distract from his essential isolation.

Pretty much any military has committed horrible war crimes and simply swept them under the rug

“What’s right with the Green Mile?” is another pertinent question .
