That comment thread should be recognised by Congress as culturally significant.

“Freeze! I’m sorry! You’re under arrest! I’m so sorry! You have the right to remain silent! I just feel terrible about this!”

I say bring back Johnny Carson. Kids will want to see the original late night TV host.

I did wonder which generation was being referred to in that quote. Presumably that depends on the age of Chris McCarthy, or else it’s a cliched statement devoid of any true meaning.

Top. Men.

I’m reminded of Mitch Hedberg’s joke about how people in Hollywood always want you to do something different to the thing you’ve proven you’re good at. “It’s like saying to a chef, ‘Hey, we know you can cook, but can you farm?’”

He’s the reformed alcoholic most voters would like to have a beer with!

That exclamation point was Jeb’s first broken promise.

That bit quoted from McNamara’s piece is super shitty, to the point where I can’t believe an editor didn’t call her up and say, “Hey, maybe don’t take a swipe at the first Native American woman to get a best actress nomination for portraying the survivor of a very real historic atrocity.”

I do wonder about how upset Gerwig and Robbie are. I’m not saying they’re not or they shouldn’t be, and I’m happy for America Ferrera and Ryan Gosling to have spoken up for them, but have either of them actually said they’re disappointed? Maybe they are just happy with the success they’ve seen so far.

The debate about how well it Does Feminism is going to go on until the sun burns out and I don’t think I have anything especially worthwhile to add to it, but just on the basis of being a big screen comedy, it’s one of the best I’ve seen in years. The scene of the Kens all playing ‘Push’ simultaneously on the beach is…

Tenzing Norgay?

You have to look for the silver linings, and if nothing else we can appreciate that this situation gave us the phrase “thankfully crotchless”.

It’s pretty cool that three of five best supporting actress noms are people of colour. And I think Ferrera has a pretty good shot, though I haven’t seen all the performances so I can’t compare them myself.

The story of ‘Barbie’ is in fact the story ... of America.

Nice use of an ableist slur there buddy. However, I at no point compared the writing of any shows. I was talking about a concept (a protagonist who is morally dubious) that is utilised in all these shows, not to mention many other fictional properties.

Have Nedry played by a CG Hugh Grant.

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could clone BD Wong, they didn’t stop to think if they should.

I prefer Vinyl Wong. It’s warmer.
