Transparent has a tendency to completely overdose on Judaism.

"Hey, remember when I had sex with your husband? When he finished he called me 'Mom.' Have fun unpacking that."

Well that was the most unexpected refrain of "Period Sex" I would have ever expected.

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend did an homage to Soul Train. Just as if you couldn't think this show could get any better.

But what about Samuel L. Jackson?

With Natalie Portman the question is: is she good or is she just crying?

It was much much darker and more adult than the book. In the book, for example, Quinton sort of thinks maybe Eliot was involved in some capacity when he had sex with Janet (they changed the character's name to Margot in the TV show), while in the show it is a full on threesome. And Breakbills isn't as wildly dangerous

Much like Natalie Portman, that is a question that has to be answered on a case-by-case basis. She was tall in Notes on a Scandal, but good in Lord of the Rings. She was both good and tall in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, however she was tall and good in Elizabeth.

I can take Lloyd ghost.

"May our dry cleaners forgive you, Charles, dear. May God award you a medal for your uninhibited marksmanship."

I like to think so. They think I had been suffering from a pretty severe chemical imbalance for awhile.

Sure, but I don't even know where they are.

Well, the intensely depressive thoughts are gone. I wouldn't say I am happy, but the endless and painful cycle of hating everything about my life is gone.

Well as I pointed out, YA was always a pretty broad spectrum. I remember going to the library when I was 12-16ish and the YA section was huge and had lots of different genres in it. But I think the YA designation became very profitable and very marketable, it devolved into specific genres and specific kinds of books

I'm perfectly fine. I'm actually a lot better than I have been in years. But I figure if I can't talk about it with strangers on the internet, how am I supposed to talk about it in real life?

I agree, mostly. For example, Harry Potter was never really marketed as Young Adult even though it is a prototypical example of something that should be.

Since you are my homies who I have known for something like five years…

On purely technical sense, "young adult" merely means a book with a teenage protagonist and written at a level teenagers are easily able to read. But "young adult" now carries a lot of connotations, in particular that it is "chick lit." So it depends upon if you want strictly the technical term or the connotations.

What up, party people!
