Counterpoint from fantasy author C.S. Lewis:
“When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”

Man, I love Alan Moore. And Martin Scorsese, for that matter. But slagging any and every superhero movie as either shallow amusement park rides devoid of…

Somewhere there’s a Philosophy grad student toiling away at a thesis that tries to establish a causal relationship between the rise of Marvel movies and the rise of populist white supremacy in American politics.

Okay, I am repeatedly on record as defending Alan Moore as not the curmudgeon people think he is.

I would consider many of the musical artists that have #1 hits today as “inactive”.

The first sentence of this is bizarre. We’re supposed to assume that any artist who isn’t having #1 hits is inactive? Jeez, Bob Pollard, stop slacking off!

The people being like “X or Y militant leftist was a Boomer” are not making the point they think they’re making. How did it go for them? They get along with their cohort? Or did they, like, flee their entire society on pain of death?

You sound like a scum bag and a loser. 

Everything on the internet is now iconic and everybody is the GOAT

“but there will never, ever be anyone as powerful as Whitney Houston. Ever again!”

Yes, I’m more jaded about the show than an average viewer, but I’m a critic.

A friend hosts a Meetup to watch arthouse/foreign films. Recently his choice was 8 1/2. I was excited, because I usually share his taste, and I know Fellini is an acknowledged great, and I still have his work to discover. But 8 1/2 just bored the living shit out of me. I know about its historic influence and I could…

People are so up their ass over this doofus.

But I’m glad a woman (supposedly) held your lil baby hand and told you the things you need to know because you’re too lazy or dumb…

I either can’t get it up because the girl is not attractive enough for my standards

If you have a single specific partner, you’re right. If you have a recurring problem with multiple partners however, better read that book if it can help. Also, obligatory “Why not both?”

U2/Johnny Cash’s the Wanderer. That tone at the very end.............

It's no more a bullshit depiction than is showing people with severe difficulties. Both exist.

What the hell is wrong with you that you think the only representation of people with autism is people who are nonverbal and can't function?

Thank you! I'm reading the comments here thinking everyone must have been watching a completely different show than I was. I'm officially diagnosed as autistic and I recognized an enormous amount of myself in the main character. I very slowly adapted over years of repeated practice to different kinds of social…

But… They didn't get it wrong, they just got some people's experience of autism wrong.
