I agree with you 100%. This isn’t an issue of ‘we slept together once’ and they were trying to cover it up. This is long-term lying and (probable) gaslighting. For EIGHTEEN months. So the husband can’t be trusted after this either. This isn’t behavior that could or *should* be forgiven.

“Monogamy, flawlessly executed over decades and decades, is not the only way a person can demonstrate faithfulness to a partner.”

And on top of that, feeding six people, let alone eight, for $100 is very reasonable.

This has the tinge of the whole “Disney sucks” thing but personally this sounds fucking delightful. People go to Disney for themed experiences and having a Ant-man themed place with big and small food sounds great.

It’s just the cost of the sandwich that bothers me. Disneyland’s not normally a place where you expect overinflated prices.

$100 to feed 8 people is pretty good.

ok but Israel forced the Palestinians into a ghetto and routinely bomb it, so maybe it is genocide?

No. A genocide is the attempted destruction of a population and that isn’t what is happening here. There are so many horrible things caused by Israel and people want to ignore them so they can throw hyperbole around.

Technically, what happened in Sabra and Shatila was that the Israelis did nothing to prevent (and a little to facilitate) genocidal acts by Lebanese Christian militias against the Muslim Palestinians in the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps. The situation is more nuanced than “Israel has committed genocide before and is

Nah.

being pro-Palestine is not equated with antisemitism”

i think that you’re reading the mood for something like this totally wrong

That’s what people said before Guardians of the Galaxy.

Yeah, not enough aloe on the planet to sooth that burn. . . . and look at Mary Pickford, who must be 125 years old, talkin’ shit.

Maybe some/most/all of them knew. Maybe not! And to be clear I’m not particularly broken up if Bradley Cooper misses out on $400,000 in back pay. I just don’t know why this relatively dry story about bankruptcy law is being framed as some sort of morality play in which Hollywood actors receive karmic retribution for

I expect there are people TWC owed money who never read the AV Club and whose existence also isn’t known to AVC. It’s a bit like the topic of contractors working on the Death Star, as discussed in Clerks (a Miramax acquisition!).

Marshal and Brooks are both brilliant in this scene.

You might think it unrealistic... however, my brother just went through his $100k inheritance in less than 6 months—gambling. He got himself in such a position that he is much worse off than before the money. He attempted suicide when the money ran out, and he’s currently in a psych ward. True, I could see it coming

Wow, it’s really really hard not to laugh at this. Soylent Green, you evil sonofabitch. Are you even people?

I’m trying to wrap my head around the sight of Prince and Sinead O’Connor involved in a foot chase through L.A. in the middle of the night and NOT have “Yakety Sax” play in my head when I do.

(yes, I’ll go there) Ishtar.
