Apparently, it’s also culturally insensitive, “at best”, to enjoy the music of a Bollywood movie so much that you dance around your empty room. By these standards, I guess I’m practically a klansman (I can’t help it, the music is just so darned infectious).

Not only is it difficult, it’s something that so many times nobody even tries to do. I suppose the “DRAMA” of a relationship ending is supposed to be easier to telegraph because you get to show BIG EMOTIONS, but in reality...a lot of friendships just atrophy to the point where you have a hard time trying to remember…
It’s funny, I never thought about the racial dynamics of Ghost World. Honestly I was just like Enid, I was a very sarcastic bitter teenager (but with brown skin and black hair and hijab). My friends and I would mock other students and we’d cuss out other people. (thankfully I grew the fuck up and I’m not like that…
uhhh.... I’m a South Asian Muslim immigrant and Ghost World was my #1 movie in 2001...shit, I watched it a thousand times on dvd and I was obsessed with the graphic novel and the website.

I’m not surprised this guy has absolutely no clue what a healthy relationship between two people might look like.
Not enough vomit in the world.
You missed my favorite bit:
Yeah, I love this new world too. I don’t have to be “politically correct.” Like, in the old days when Obummer and his Muslim Jade Helm brethren roamed the land, I would have bit my tongue.
This story is so enraging, every time I’ve read about this I can feel my blood pressure go up. But, this:
Another friendly reminder that political correctness is simply treating people with respect. So yea, he’ll probably be acquitted.
Right? Atavism is such a thing in Russia, and it seems to be contagious. Punching trees, slapping women, eating only carrion, worshipping the cheiftain who can lift the heaviest log, etc. What is this freak-ass craving to live like (the worst sort of) paleolithic hunter-gatherers? “We’d be better off if we were…
Good thing Evnika can box, as she just lost her job to Russia’s newest technological breakthrough, the ax.
