Eh, I liked the King of the Hill version better.

I’m already sick of the apologists claiming “It was a JOKE! He was on SNL!” like that makes it ok.

Says you don’t want to belittle the story, and then you just go ahead and do that. Look at the context? Okay. He kissed her without her permission. He later took a picture where he pantomimed groping her while she was asleep. As a “joke”.

Fuck. Off.

He’s funny. Humor is it’s own point.

Now that Alabama is set to make a pedophile a senator, this whole pee tape thing seems kinda quaint.

I’m looking forward to it. The zeitgeist-ey take on the Punisher as being some paragon of macho gun culture, as a hero who murders while more merciful super heroes don’t, has become eye-rollingly obnoxious to me.

Glad there’s no Claire. If she was in it, she’d just spend the first 10 episodes begrudgingly patching up Frank’s wounds while making speeches to the camera about how killing is wrong. Then at the 3/4 mark when Frank suddenly has a moral crisis, she’d spend the next two episodes begrudgingly patching up his wounds…

Okay. I was going to watch this anyway, but it looks like they’ve gone the right direction(s) here and given The Punisher some different paths he might take. Piling on the supporting characters is the right move - a lone-wolf, gun-toting vigilante is not just not that interesting, it’s also a depressingly familiar…

Oh I do so hope that Rawlins lives up to his comic counterpart.

Now if she can just come out and say she doesn’t support soldiers attacking children in hospital, then I might go see one of her movies.

Wow. Surprised how many people ran with this.

There is a quote about Vietnam - “if you’ve lost Cronkite, you’ve lost America.” Let me repurpose that here. “If you’ve lost Hannity, you’ve lost a hateful moronic hypocritical smug semi-sentient potato.”

How did their arch-conservative founder let them issue this response? I assume John Schnatter was bound and gagged in a dark room when this was sent out. Because that’s what he does on Tuesday.

Pizza snobs going to come here, “all pizza chains suck!!!”
Bitch, it’s pizza. Even cheap ass Little Caesars is good.

It really is too little too late. I think I’d rather eat a Nazi, than their pizza.

They could do a commercial featuring Dead Kennedys’ Nazi Punks Fuck Off.

“but I just don’t think the headline or the initial framing or even the fact that this article is being written at all gel with your actual sentiments, which I’m pretty sure are the same as mine”

And honestly, I wish Kinja would let me edit my original post to make it clear that I’m not trying to cater to the interminable demographic of cynics and trolls who now populate this website. You guys get more than enough shit on a daily basis without my pretentious, Disqus-veteran ass dishing out on a problem you…

Sorry, Sean, you may have caught the brunt of my ire at the way many around me have been treating the situation. I admit that I was chomping at the bit to articulate my disdain for the lack of context with which his comments have been treated, and so, paired with the headline, your byline on this article made my heart…

Sean — and I say this with an incredible amount of respect for you as a writer (one of my favorites on the internet), a journalist, and a person — this is legitimately clickbait bullshit. The mountain of qualifiers heaped in the second half of this article practically unwrites the first and proves that point. Except…
