Are those of who attended colleges and universities that almost all excluded people of color, Jewish Americans, and/or women for most of their histories wrong for doing so? Where do you draw the line?

The funny thing is that I’m not some huge fan of Kemper’s. I didn’t watch The Office. I thought that she was good in Bridesmaids. I liked Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and thought that she was good in it, too, but it’s not like she’s one of my favorite actors.

This was fantastic. Thank you for your service.

Were there roving bands of self-important dopes deliberately bumping into the women for the express purpose of prompting the irritated response? Because if not, it pretty much ruins the comparison.

The original article by AV Club, combined with this insolent follow-up, has done more to further discredit progressivism than anything I’ve seen in a long time.

I’m going to dissect this bullshit one bit at a time:

I love how the article tries to insinuate that it was terrible that she took a week to respond to this manufactured controversy. Y’all ought to be ashamed of yourselves.

Hi, police? Come quick, there’s been a murder.

It’s not surprising to hear that this was blown off at The Root. One weird thing about this particular strain of cannibalistic cancel culture, wherein liberal-presenting celebrities in good public standing are torn down over silly things that happened forever ago, is that it’s totally driven by white liberals trying

There’s more black people at Veiled Prophet Ball than work at the AV Club

You know, AVC, you can’t regularly call Twitter a shitty hell website and then give in to its worst tendencies constantly.

When *some* people say “Cancel culture is a thing”, this is what they mean. Not the “it’s just consequence for your actions” kind of meaning.

Oh man, you didn’t check in to see how this insane stretch of a nothing-burger was getting roasted over at The Root? Cause it’s getting no traction there, and it feels like their readership should know.

The Atlantic reported in 2014 that the Veiled Prophet Organization barred Black and Jewish people from joining.

I’m surprised AV Club went with this take when even the comments section of The Root went “Eh, this is stretching it.”

There’s really not much of anything here. The headline and the beginning of the story made it sound like Erin from The Office was burning crosses and shit. Nope, she attended some corny debutante ball thing that has a racist past. Most of the US has a racist past.

The original Half-Life’s “story” was perfect because it didn’t try to be a mediocre Netflix SciFi movie. It understood that video games aren’t movies and stuck to the things video games are good at. "A dude is stuck in a lab when aliens attack and has to escape" is a lousy movie plot but a perfect video game setting. 

I actually have a completely opposite opinion, a lot of what you point out as flaws are what I actually like about it. I loved that feeling of not knowing what the hell was going on. Being just some guy having the word’s worst day at work and knowing exactly what you as Gordon would have known at any given point. I

Can’t believe how young Gordon looks now that I’m older, I used to think he was an old man

I have zero investment in half life, and i promise this is a good faith question, but why in the world are people still expecting a follow-up? ARE people really expecting a follow up, or is it wishful thinking?
