For me it's Papri Chat with tater tots substituted for potato pieces.

You can take this boi home.

Of course not every issue is clear-cut, but that doesn't justify those issues that are more obvious. I remember being involved in a discussion over statuatory rape once (I think it was after the Sandusky incident), when someone blurted out something about what if they were sixteen and looked really adult and you…

The A.V. Club is looking for someone to do a show on Hormel Black Label Bacon.

That was actually a really good episode. And I usually loath South Park (especially when it comes to race things). But they actually sorta got it that time. Ahem, I mean, didn't get it.

As a pretty staunch liberal, I'm pretty content with the idea of Maher going down. That's a win-win situation for me.

"Clearly you just don't understand the minority experience in America" - quote that I actually got from a diehard white leftwing advocate once.

Okay, but how exactly do we practically extend free speech beyond that of freedom from government restrictions? It's not like everybody on the planet who wants an HBO show can get it.

But unacceptable speech is allowed. It's for us to use the forum of free speech to try and defend what we hold to be important and criticize the indefensible. You're basically saying, we should support hatred in one forum so that we can oppose it in a different one. Now, to be clear, I'm entirely in support of the…

Yeah, same. Even though I can't stand Salon; they're definitely a different breed at worst.

I mean, when we actually do stumble across a body, the threat of curses pales in comparison to the shit ton of paperwork that we're gonna have to fill out.

Or, you know, the Republicans intentionally depressing Democrat turnout by making it more difficult for minorities to vote. But we're just supposed to pretend that racism isn't a thing?

But I've always thought that was partially related to people being rejected by the society around them, and turning inwards to compensate. In the United States, according to polls Muslims are actually more likely to identify as "American" than the average white person! I associate that with the United States…

The way that I've explained it is that I'm not upset about Comey being fired. I'm upset about a) the timing and b) the fact that he was fired without a special prosecutor being appointed. And yes, it's true that a special prosecutor was later appointed, but I think that it's very clear that he never intended to do…

I guess I just don't understand why people immediately equate Muslims on the street with theocracy while ignoring all the white Christians around them. I mean, I think that it's stupid to treat anybody that way. Odds are all that most people on the street, Muslim or Christian, want to do is go to the Gap to pick up…

Dude, posting an inane number of comments over a trivial pop culture discussion is practically A.V. Club tradition. Like, seriously, only 20? If we were talking about Allison Brie, it would be well over 200 by now.

I mean, it's not a perfect metaphor. China probably isn't going to see a demographic transition anytime soon. But I think that like Japan, growth will peter out and inflation will set in.

I mean, it seemed to be a pretty obvious joke, but if you found it offensive, then I didn't mean it that way.

No, those were the hipsters. Easy mistake to make.

What exactly do you think those rednecks were doing with a pickup truck full of fireworks?
