I was home sick the other day and watched The Hunting Ground and that 30 for 30 about the Duke lacrosse rape scandal….why would I watch a college rape double feature when I already don't feel good!?

I don't know why but I love that movie, it probably has to do with Tupac and Tim Roth being like peak hotness.

I've never been particularly into them but that song was on a Dance Dance Revolution game I had so just reading the name, I started doing the steps without even thinking, even though I haven't played that game in 10 years. It musta really stuck with me!

Not really related but it made me think of The Great British Baking Show…it's not cute kids singing but rather cordial English people baking but there is no actual prize and almost no drama, just people baking delicious shit.

I was in prime "getting into old music" age when the Beatles Anthology thing came out, so there was a multi night documentary and the albums and news coverage of said albums, so it was almost hard to avoid the Beatles at that time. We even had a local radio station that tried playing all Beatles (and songs by the

I am conflicted about most revivals and feel like we should just let things be of their time and move on. But with Gilmore Girls, the 7th season is so resented for not being put on by the original showrunners, getting a do over does make sense for the super fans. And I am hearing that the cast thinks that it will be a

Agreed, loved watching MuchMusic/Fuse as an alternative to MTV and also liked seeing how Canadians didn't edit their videos nearly as much. My main memory was the video for Paranoid Android (got I hate Radiohead but it was inescapable) where in the background, there is like a porn magazine hanging on the wall for a

I had a boyfriend who had a friend who was a very nice guy but also had pretty white trash taste (he owned it, tho) and so we went with him to a music festival put on by Linkin Park. Yes, it's just as bad as it sounds. But it was interesting because this was probably 2007 or so, and it seemed like kind of where nu

Disagree! I was on a real J. Lo kick recently and was reminded how much I loved that video (despite being too cool for it when it came out, of course.) That pink velour shorts sweatsuit! Her baby hairs! Her thinking she could say the n word because she was dating P Diddy! I also "hated" Fat Lip but of course know all

I love the message, although I'm sure it was lost on almost everyone, but basically yeah, you got to show you kind of know what you're doing down there before you get the whole shebang! I WISH more girls internalized that, they'd avoid a lot of bad sex!

Exactly. It's aspirational for the targeted fan base but I think to some degree titillation is titillation and even if you're a young girl (which I was once) who is straight, it's still exciting to see a hot girl sexy dance just because it's sexy, whether or not your want to be that girl. I am reminded of studies

I think dubstep is pretty similar to nu metal in that it burned really hot for a second, became hated almost instantly, and it was associated with primarily bone headed dudes ("bros" now but that wasn't as much a thing during nu metal.) I do think they differ in how they came about into the mainstream- nu metal still

I was a little old for all of this, I never "requested" anything and was much too cool for any of it (in my mind, at least, because we were listening to Pulp and Elliott Smith and such) but fuck if we didn't watch it religiously. There was one summer where we watched it every fucking day and I still know all the words

And a Naked Gun (the 3rd one, but still.)

I too vastly prefer How Did This Get Made to Flop House but I feel like I gotta listen to this one.

Sort of like what someone was saying above, the extreme reaction people have to period blood (over other bodily functions) is interesting and, basically, sexist. I work in libraries and had someone tell me there was a huge mess in the bathroom, blood everywhere, must be cleaned right away. I go to check it out, and it

It does seem a little overblown. But I know I was in deep lust with him as a 12 year old when he was on Singled Out, then he disappeared, then the next thing I see is him yelling at me as soon as they cut to commercial when I was still somewhat invested in Walking Dead and I was like "whoa, do not like." He's got that

Way to turn it around and make me look like I'm being even more irrational than my husband! Kidding, but while IUD's do have the advantage of being removable, they do cause some women issues (they seem to sometimes wiggle out of place, causing pain or allowing surprise pregnancy) and I've never had kids so sort of

That is awful and I never knew about those risks!

Dan is not a substance abuse counselor, never has claimed to be, so if someone calls in with a question related to their own substance abuse problem, takes Dan's openly non-professional advice without consulting any other source, then relapses because he only listened to part of the advice (since Dan ultimately said
