Well, I'm guessing the crazy fangirls are actually 14. So you know, hormones and lack of judgement. Although on the "zero chance" thing, Gregory Peck did marry a French journalist who had interviewed him. I'm not saying this happens regularly but it *can* happen that someone famous marries/dates someone who isn't…

And yet when Robert Redford wears those big glasses in Three Days of the Condor, he looks so good.

Atheism is a belief because we can't prove there's no god. Simple as that. There is no scientific evidence to the non existence of god, the same way there's no scientific evidence to the existence of god. You believe, as I do, that there's no god. Fine. That fact doesn't make you superior to religious people.

THIS. Thank you. If the genders were reversed, nobody here would be rooting for the character, they'd call him (and rightly so) a fucking creep.

Crybabies? Maybe. Football players are also the least articulate athletes in the world. The stereotype about how those dudes earn the equivalent of an African country GDP while being unable to conjugate a verb exists for a reason. And the reason is, they're very dumb.

They're not the same thing: the consequences are much bigger in the case of avoiding taxes. Here, what do we have? An old homophobic dude who doesn't want his commercials to reflect that same-sex relationships exist. I don't care. I wish we'd focus on the real things that have a real impact. The Barilla CEO isn't one…

Damn, you are obsessed with that horse stuff. You do know that it's possible to eat horse meat, right? It's not dangerous, except apparently for narrow cultural reasons. And it's not like customers noticed so really there's no scandal here (except, yes, there should be better traceability)

I'm sorry, I find it ridiculous that people would stop buying Barilla because their CEO is an asshole. I don't care if the guy's homophobic, why would I deprive myself of really good pasta (and cheap as well)? What is this going to achieve? Nothing.

A lot of people seem to hate Piper solely because of what she represents (white, well educated, privileged). Piper has privilege but she's also a minority which, strangely, a lot of people seem to conveniently forget. And I agree: I can think of several characters who have done far worse things than Piper and who…

I totally cheered when Piper did her speech about white priviledge because I was super annoyed at everyone hating her for something they would never feel guilty about had furlough been given to them. Can't stand the other inmates's hypocrisy.

The dislike of Piper around here keeps amazing me. I think people project all their shit onto her. Meanwhile, Morello is fucking creepy, ruined a guy's life and attempted to kill his wife and that makes her totes awesome. Ok then. I'm just glad to have a bisexual character that's both complex and interesting and that…

I assumed that the video was an exaggerated version of real life. Apparently I was wrong.

Ok that's a good point. Hadn't thought about that.

Sure when it's done like in the video: "oh hi, nice to meet you, I love sushis!"

So what? Who cares if they decorate their own house with Buddhas? I don't give a shit if people want to decorate their place with Jesus everywhere. It's tacky as hell but so what? It's not my house. This "let's respect religious symbols" PCness annoys me so much because it verges on acknowledging that blasphemy is a…

I don't understand how that's offensive though. When you first meet people, you look for topics of conversation based on what you have in common with the other person. Saying you love a certain kind of food is just a way to break the ice in my experience. I get that it can get a bit tiring after a while but it's not…

Same. I'm obsessed with her music. I don't care about her image or whether or not she can actually sing live or any of that. My criteria for liking a song is just that: do I think the song is good? Yes? Then, I'm going to listen to it nonstop. It's that simple really.

Well, I guess I should count myself lucky since I've never encountered that kind of behaviour at the gym. It boggles my mind though: who feels horny at the gym? Seriously, I'm way too exhausted and sweaty to even think about sex when I'm working out.

Please. If the majority of people in Ireland were in favour of legalizing abortion, it would have happened by now. Come on. Politicians are elected by people after all. If a majority of people want change, change happens. I've been to Ireland several times and I've been to mass there (well, I've come to mass with…

Yep, in India (no idea about China so I won't talk about that), the preference for boys has a lot to do with the dowry parents will have to pay when their daughter gets married. And once women are married, they're part of their husband's family, so in a way they're "lost" to their own family. There's also the fact…
