Tell us what smugness and condescension taste like.

She will never, EVER, back down or admit even the possibility that she could be wrong.

Samm-Art Williams in Blood Simple, Sidney Dawson in Raising Arizona, Bill Cobbs in Hudsucker Proxy, Steve Reevis in Fargo, Richard Gant in Big Lebowski, Chris Thomas King, Lee Weaver and several bit players in O Brother, Where Art Thou, Adam Alexi-Malle in the Man Who Wasn’t There, Cedric the Entertainer as you note,…

You’re right; responding to an honest question with condescension is always helpful.

Wow. Talk about “being simple.”

How are you not exhausted by the daily tantrums you throw? Fucking hell.

Really can’t stand Kara’s writing. All snark, all condescension, no substance. It’s like she can’t have a conversation that isn’t one-sided. Hence, she is relegated to shade court.

Don’t be simple, she says in a manner that is the very definition of simple. Condescension is not a substitute for a legitimate argument, nor does it magically make you “right”.

That was damn rude. VonQueso is a thoughtful commenter who has been here for a long time. She asked an honest question in order to educate herself, and you replied with both, ‘Don’t be simple’, and then further insulted her with a reproduction of a dictionary entry. The question wasn’t even directed at a column YOU…

Why are you lying about me being a white supremacist? How does that lie benefit you?

There’s also a difference between making a movie set in a certain period of time and wanting to adhere to the realities of said time, even if it’s a fictional movie, and choosing to do something like a hip-hop telling of a historical figure. Apples and oranges.

Please provide evidence of my skin color.

I assume you’re saying that because you’ve seen the film and know that the racism of Hollywood absolutely doesn’t play a factor in it in any way, right? You wouldn’t just be making assumptions about a film which won’t come out until next year, would you?

Do it another 10,000 times and you’ll get this badge.

Are you forgetting the star of “no country for old men” he won an Oscar for that role.

Methinks Bobby (and I say this lovingly because Bobby is generally great despite his near blanket refusal to tell me what the tabloids say about Duggars and the Bachelor) is looking to be upset about something.

Wait, so you’re complaining about a film not featuring black people in an era when Hollywood was so segregated that they had to create a special Oscar category for James Baskett because black men didn’t win Best Actor awards?
