Everybody except the target audience hated the Ewoks.

Are you actually going to compare South Korea to North Korea? They’re not exactly very easy to confuse.
By the end of the article, I was really starting to wonder if someone was playing an elaborate prank on the family.
Why are the rates higher among vets?
“He’s been paid more than $10.5 million by the federal government to do all that.”
Our tax payer dollars at work, I suppose, and yet people get their tits in a twist about a woman in front of them at the grocery story buying Doritos with food stamps.
I don’t think the job itself is so terrible, at least not for some women. I think the problem with the position is that it tends to reinforce our already existing biases toward presidents who are men, who are married to women, and whose wives are both conventionally feminine and willing to put any other career goals…
Honestly, just about the only good thing I can think of that might come of a Graham presidency is that it might finally collectively dawn on America that the position of First Lady as an unpaid and generally well overqualified Mother, Wife and Hostess to the nation is a terrible outdated institution that needs to be…
It’s unfortunate he couldn’t just say that there’s no real need for a First Lady. I’m sure he has friends of either gender who have uncontroversial pet causes that he can bring attention to, and I’m equally sure the White House staff is capable of putting on state dinners without a figurehead.
I’m sure this kid is extremely intelligent, and no doubt driven as heck. However, stories like this do a disservice to the kids who don’t get fame by building fusors in their sheds, but keep their heads down, go to a top tier universities, and become tenured professors who go on to do real science to help humanity.…
I think in the books it makes it a bit more clear that Peeta and Katniss started out as strictly political and that Katniss literally couldn’t be with Gale because Pres Snow threatened to kill Gale if Katniss was faking her love of Peeta. If Katniss and Peeta were fake then they played the games (and the citizens)…
We’re holding the limes, almonds, and avocados hostage until the rain comes. We warned you, rain.
I don’t really get the complaints either. It’s a very different book, but it’s an accurate representation of complex trauma and PTSD. Katniss is a different person, and frankly should be a different person after what she’s been through. I thought it was fascinating.
I don’t get all the complaints about Mockingjay, I quite enjoyed the book...
Someone’s been reading Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.
Han did not shoot first.
I’d agree if it weren’t for some of the games being listed here. Octodad isn’t trash by any sense of the word. Revenge of the Titans isn’t trash, good game and getting overwhelmingly positive reviews. Beyond Gravity wasn’t my thing, but I don’t think trash really applies. And it’s only 2 bucks. RPG Tycoon I haven’t…
Wait, is this surprising? It’s like saying, “Now that prisoners have the ability to leave, they are.”
Hmmmm, so you think the murderer took cues from the general atmosphere on Yik Yak? I think it’s very clear her murder is completely unrelated, even if it was done in a misognynistic rage of the murderer’s own making. First off, you’d have to prove to me that the dude who was returning to school after an eight year…
I think a College President has the right to call out a group on their bullshit. Doing so isn’t mutually exclusive to improving the on-campus culture. He can’t be expected to just take somebody’s bullshit and smile about it though.
Fantastic letter.
