"What Parker and Stone are well-equipped to do is go after the pious, self-righteous, unctuous PC/SJ loons."

“Fuck you, what I do is fucking funny, bitch!”

I 100% interpreted it as a sign that she has fundamentally been changed by her decisions, and that she's perhaps lost some of her identity/humanity that she used to have, and that perhaps she can't 'go home' the way she seemed to think in that scene.

I still can't really grasp that acting like a 12 yo with untreated ADHD makes someone money

ok, I, too, grew up with this looping on cable, and at the time I really liked it. in fact, we neighborhood kids at one point restaged several scenes from it because we knew it so well. and I understand why someone would prefer the sexual politics of G2.

in a broad theoretical sense I understand what you're saying, vis a vis homeowners being held to the whims of the government…..

yeah, it's not a spoiler, but it's newly discovered information made public for the first time. and article about this case months ago mentioned the doc crew had new info, but weren't letting it be known yet.

this article really made me wish the entire thing had been a look at Kline's career and the Mustache Principle
