I agree on most of them, but FAMBLY has partially transcended.  Not to the degree of ‘quarter mile at a time’, but still to the point where there might be people who aren’t familiar with the movies who would still get the reference.

I could probably spend an entire day trying and failing to come up with a more stomach-turning way to compliment a woman’s posterior. Though it makes very little sense - when has anyone ever heard a guy say something nice about a woman’s body by comparing it to that of a child or the opposite sex?

I heard from my uncle Kakie that with great power comes great big-booty bitches.

‘He or she’ - much as the singular ‘they’ used to - only makes sense in situations where the subject’s sex is either unknown (“So I got some news from my doctor today.” “What’d he or she say?”) or unclear. No one’s looking at Emma D’Arcy and wondering ‘guy or gal?, so they’re going to default to ‘she’ in this case.…

I think there were far fewer non-terrorist portrayals of Muslims or Arabs in media at the time. Nowadays it seems like a quaint complaint about True Lies, since there are a lot of depictions of those demographics that are something other than terrorists.

Every time I see a sign warning of work being done on a bridge I think of that scene. “OH GOD HARRY, THE BRIDGE IS OUT!”

I’ve seen Mission Impossible 1, 2 and Rogue Nation.  IIRC, 2 didn’t really share much with 1 apart from the general spy premise along with some characters.  Rogue Nation was pretty plot-light and action-heavy, with the barest of exposition for why the characters were going to various places and engaging in stunts,…

‘Cancel culture doesn’t exist’ always means ‘if cancel culture were real then anyone who was cancelled would disappear forever’.

Kinks/fetishes inherently make zero sense.

And The Stuff was actually a sequel to The Thing.

I’m currently wearing an Under Armor t-shirt that makes me look more muscular than I actually am, and cost six bucks off the Kohls clearance rack. It was a much better buy than a diaphanous potato sack and shoulder-width napkin-bib that probably cost a thousand times as much.

What could he have done, though? What kind of power does he have over the Democratic establishment? It’s not like he’s Trump, who has a large part of the Republican electorate eating out of his hand. There isn’t a large swath of Democrats who are Biden or Bust.

I don’t expect anything different either, and that’s why I enjoy Lena Dunham.  I can’t help but have an odd appreciation for people who seem to go out of their way to be off-putting.

I’m not a fan of the transparent/translucent dress even on attractive women. ‘I wish to be provocative with my outfit’ just makes me roll my eyes. You’re out in public, aim for ‘stylish’ or ‘classy’ or maybe even ‘quirky’. There are times and places to fully display your body, and none of them are on sidewalks.

There are plenty of other candidates, but no one knows who they are. They haven’t been found. Harris is the obvious one, in the way that a sitting VP is always an obvious candidate for the presidency. Who else are people tossing around? Newsome? Whitmer? Those name are always said with a question mark because no one…

This might be just a quibble on what constitutes ‘loads’, but I don’t think that a couple hundred here and there really counts.

I think those people were certain that Trump wasn’t going to get elected, so they felt comfortable with their protest vote.  Those people were probably among those who were flipping out in the streets after the election, and they most definitely sucked it up and voted for Biden in 2020 even if they were all in on…

So are you suggesting that the DNC went ‘Ok, we got through that by the skin of our teeth, time to send out the talent scouts to find the next generation of Democratic leaders to elevate into the public consciousness’ and then president-elect Biden kicked in the door and went ‘Not so fast, I’m God-Emperor of this…

Lady Business Landmass.  That way if anyone asks you what you mean, you can awkwardly pretend that its where the woman-owned accounting firm your company uses is incorporated.

Clearly Greta Gerwig needs to be handed the reigns to the Mattel Cinematic Universe to plan out the rest of Phase One.
