I agree, totally inevitable. It's the "dragged kicking and screaming" years I worry about. :)

This whole Republican, Protestant, "pull your own damn self up by your own damn bootstraps" ethic is absolutely barbaric when applied to the sick and elderly, but not only that, it's a philosophy that is not so slowly becoming completely outdated.

I thought that was more a comment on his hotness.

"Crazy fucking AV club, seeing misogyny everywhere! What a bunch of nut jobs!"

Dr. Samuel Johnson, the great lexicographer, was the compiler of the first dictionary of the English language.

Lena will take out a full page ad in Variety screaming "STOP TALKING ABOUT ME" if she has to.

"Lena, You're doing this shit ALL WRONG. Love, Jennifer Aniston"

Caddyshack fan message board.

Noticed that too. Also see the "ya", as in "Realizing who ya real friends are".

Is there a symbol or some kind of abbreviation we can all use for the Lena Dunham preamble "Goddamn she can be annoying and I am definitely no huge fan of hers BUT"? I totally do that too.

Now we've reached a point where you refuse to comprehend that you've made a logical error, and you're charging ahead full bore as if that doesn't matter. You're just like the dudebros in the sketch, except you're unfortunately quite real.

Yeah, what the hell were we thinking, discussing the misogyny in a sketch based on The Handmaid's Tale, of all things?

Whether I ever fired a gun or not is an absolute non sequitur.

When I find people like this, where I can't be sure, I always ask, what's worse? If he's serious, or if he isn't and just taking up all the time and energy pretending to be serious? And at that point, is it even a pretense?

Oh, I'll explain. "Non sequitur" means, in this case, whether I have fired a gun or not has literally nothing to do with your claim that a couple of unarmed pregnant women could overpower a man with an assault rifle. And the claim that they could is absurd on it's face.

That's what's called a "non sequitur".

guy in the scene with the gun was pretty vapid

But see, Whim calls that blindness "wit", and doesn't realize that their privileged naivete is actually the comedy of the sketch. Dudebro walks into a concentration camp, sees the horrors, and says, "damn, you guys should leave! This place is terrible!"

Thank god you're here to point out the misandry of a throwaway sketch on a late night comedy show.

Your premise is based on how you are unburdened by the "baggage" of taking the Handmaid's Tale at face value. You see things that others don't (or can't, poor things), and you delight in your own exceptionalism.
