We know that Trump would have paid almost no taxes if his tax reform ideas had been implemented (because the AMT wouldn't have existed).

These days I see a lot of tu quoque fallacious arguments, which I usually call whataboutism.

Because one thing we could learn from tax returns is who is paying Trump.

You don't have to be a part of the "paranoid left" to know that there's something in Trump's tax returns that he really wants to hide.

I felt the same way about Astrid standing there and getting shot. I'm also skeptical that she would have been able to hit anything while shooting relatively blindly into the woods, even if she had bullets.

Can someone smarter than me make a joke about the title and wigs? The Ameriwigicans? Wigs: An Americans Story.

I liked season 1 of Buffy due to the extreme campiness. Maybe my memories are overly kind.

I had trouble buying Quinn's actions as at all realistic. It just felt like the show was kicking him while he was down over and over by making him act in ridiculous ways. Maybe I'm ignorant of how PTSD can manifest.

Is there anything more peak internet than starting a flame war about Top Chef minutiae?

Counterpoint: Some people actually do take this stuff seriously and are influenced by it. If you're so stupid and sophomoric that you want to have a goof about being a nazi and antisemitism to get a rise out of people on the internet, you shouldn't pretend that you're somehow superior to anyone.

It's all fun, games, and "just being subversive" until the US elects Trump. Seriously, intent doesn't matter at a certain point.

Who could have imagined we'd get a dumber, meaner version of the G.W. Bush administration just 8 years later? He's got to seize this opportunity and hope Trump starts an even dumber war than Iraq and kicks off an even bigger recession.

The novelty wears off pretty quickly, imo.

God, the 90's sucked.

Now they're ruining milk for me? C'mon man.

That's it, time to shut the internet down. Been real, been good, but ain't been real good.

Naw, I think Rosie would be great.

Just when you think he couldn't be any worse…

One of the many sad ironies of the times: People who are TERRIFIED of women and children are busy calling other people snowflakes.

Yeah, I see it as a way to get games that wouldn't get made otherwise.
