Definitely sure. The parody people actually put some effort into the costumes.

Fucking hell, way to kill my interest in Titans.

When Anna Diop was cast, a fan made this:

Rule #1: Never forget that the only reason Haisley gets to write about soccer is because Deadspin doesn’t actually care about soccer.

They fled and crashed.

Ramonda wasn’t a regnant Queen, much like the British Queen Mother. She has no blood claim to the throne. The British monarchy isn’t patriarchal, as evidenced by their current monarch, so it makes no sense to assume the Wakandan one is based on the dowager Queen not ascending to the throne.

Absolutist monarchies are a…

If it remained that way at the end of the movie, yes. But one of the core themes of the movie is that embracing change is good.

Plus Wakanda is not a patriarchal dictatorship. It’s a monarchy, and in the comics at least, Shuri ascends to the throne and the Black Panther title at least once.

Muh refereeing!

Liverpool and United fans coming together to revel in collectively breaking Pep’s mind has been my weirdest experience of the season. Don’t mind it, though.

It’s pronounced “anglicism no actual Spanish speaker uses, but it makes US progressives feel good about their wokeness”.

Bucky with the good hair

If you don’t get it, you don’t get it. You don’t choose a club, it chooses you.

Grind up bugs and turn them into patties that can be fried, and you might see some progress. Eating bugs that LOOK LIKE BUGS is the part that’s a bridge too far for most westerners.

Barcelona, Coutinho, Sterling... All the snakes got stomped today.

Most matters of taste are subjective and impossible to adjudicate.

This isn’t one of them. Steak fries are wrong.

The original comment described the ideal response as “tell us how to fix it”. That is not dialogue. That is yielding the issue and letting the squeaky wheel dictate the terms of any “solution”. As I said, it’s creative death.

“But I actually kinda like her even looking like that, zora,” one character says. It’s an offhand comment mired in notions of ‘traditional’ beauty, suggesting it’s odd or out of the ordinary that the Zora Queen might be found attractive in her curse state .

That isn’t remotely close to what I said, which proves my point: Placing yourself at the whims of the complainer doesn’t work.

Well, it does give Conan Antonio Motti a run for its money.

But he does it with an accent we’re apparently supposed to pretend doesn’t exist in the real world, so he’s now the enemy.

Because sometimes the critics don’t actually have a point, and even when they do, subjecting yourself to their whims is creative death.
