Mm. Possibly why they cast her as Joan Jett in The Runaways (which I haven't seen, but heard she did pretty good with her mannerisms etc).

Really? It made sense to me, I thought she had a point. She's commenting that the media circus surrounding her is mostly fabricated for sensationalism because people want stories; therefore she isn't going to take it personally, because it isn't (in any true sense) about her. The truth would probably be boring, and…

Ok, so a CEO of a large company and an abuser of a helpless animal - that's two points towards - 'probably a psychopath'. (#notallCEOs but the ruthlessness psychopaths exhibit can actually be helpful in business and the lack of empathy exhibited by abusing an animal is on the psychopath checklist).

To clarify: I wasn't really asking for links, though yes, good on someone for providing them anyway.

Sigh. Ok, I made a statement, but it isn't the statement you're characterising it as.

No women gave a fuck about gaming pre 2005? *counts* ok, I was 21.

In fairness, that wasn't what I actually asked though. Waltfeld kindly produced links (though yes, I could've found them myself) and yes, it is compelling that that's what they're doing here. I'm not saying it isn't.

Yeah, it's also perfectly justifiable as our language is a total bitch. I remember being told as a little kid that spelling is just writing down how you hear it (like catchphrase is say what you see) - and spelling phonetically might work for a few simple things (can, cat, mat) etc, but it's going to go all to hell at…

Not really...

Huh. Well, I'm seeing a lot of Johansson and not a lot of Lawrence in the mash-up tbh. Maybe just me, or the expression seems more the former.

while that's a possibility, I would want a more reliable opinion than youtube comments that this is happening here before concluding.

I wasn't sure about the others (don't know the shows tbh) but I thought the GoT one was pretty good. I enjoyed the "you can pause it" repetition for looking at the map, and "have a backup" for one of the characters dying and "it's a spoiler". Also, while the joke may be well-worn, many people are concerned about the…

Heh. Was talking to someone about point 1 the other day - how the kinks and fetishes you have in adult life may be centred around something that happened childhood/pre-adolescent as something interesting or exciting (but not sexual) but somewhere in adolescence, turns sexual.

...that got a giggle that ended in a snort.

"But troubling as the book's dynamics are, Bonomi is ascribing it a lot of power. Surely binge-drinking, disordered eating and abusive relationships involve many more risk factors than picking up one shoddily written piece of Twilight fanfic, no matter how popular or problematic."

"The Doctor keeps undermining her — even when she's been utterly awesome, he says that she triumphed over the robots because she was "5'1 and crying." But when she's finally had enough of his meanness, he shows his wounded side and makes her feel sorry for him."

You are very much not alone. I saw a video on there of a kitten learning to walk and doing all these cute little 'mews' and being, generally, a cute fuzzy ball and my first thought was - why the fuck do people have kids? These are way cuter than babies.

"The Daily Mail has informed us" well that's a heads up you're going to be receiving some quality material :p

haha! Tywinning.
