I was so relieved to hear “You’re my Best Friend” in the trailer. I had been a little worried they wouldn’t be able to afford Queen, so every tape left in a car would turn into “Best of REO Speedwagon” of “Best or Foreigner” or something instead.

On the contrary, he’s clearly not a Gnostic. For one thing, I didn’t see a demiurge in there anywhere.

Mind you, there aren’t any actual jokes on display

I read American Gods because everybody and their brother went on about it. What a disappointment. Shadow Moon was so un-engaging a protagonist that the book never succeeded in making me care what happened.

Perhaps he meant ambiguous? Ambivalent? Maybe you could argue agnostic theistic kinda... Although I'd probably not.

“Mind you, there aren’t any actual jokes on display, which is kind of a weird choice for an adaptation of a very funny book.”

It’s probably to do with the fact that while the book is incredibly humorous, the core story is taken more or less entirely seriously.

I expect it’ll lighten up by the second or third trailer.

Misusing a simple word and then immediately misspelling another simple word (“angle”?) is basically the house style around here.

Right?!

Thank goodness he's black. If a white man had said this shit, Fox News would have promoted him.

Telling a respected professor and PhD to open a book...it’s like he’s just too lazy to tailor his misogyny to the target. At least show some pride in your shitty craft, dude!

I’m slowly coming to terms with the fact that getting angry at these deadshits just plays into their weird online auto-erotic asphyxiation-via-outrage games and I have no interest helping them blast another load of dusty spunk into their mum’s cremation urn.  

I think rmlohner made a bad analogy and we’re missing the point.

I think it’s actually worse. CK isn’t hoping people forget about it, he’s hoping his fans don’t give a shit about what he did and how terribly he handled it.

YES. It isn’t about the time! It is about what you did to make things better!

John, I know you think you’re very edgy, but you’re just extremely boring.

I’m reminded very much of Michael Vick, who did a ton of stuff to promote awareness of what a serious problem animal abuse is and giving the message directly to children of why it’s such a bad thing. I’m not saying any of that got me to forgive him, because nothing can, but I also can’t think of anything more that…

Honestly if I was gonna harass him,  I’d give him shit about being on that Nerd ministral show Big Bang Theory.   I actually liked season 2 and on Wesley 

I doubt there is anything Wil could say that won’t get him dog piled on either way. Either he defends his friend and gets it from one side, or he defends Dykstra and gets it from the other side. Might as well stay out of it until The Man says Testify. Nothing Wil does would help anyway.

I’m with him on the Shut up Wesley thing.  If I was famous for being an annoying teenage character, and anytime anyone wanted to dismiss anything I said, they just said Shut Up Puddinghead, I’d start blocking that shit too.  The internet has plenty of entertaining and creative trolls.  No need to suffer the boring…

That’s what Letters to Penthouse was for.
