Eh. Semantics. “Country” =/= “Country Radio”
Eh. Semantics. “Country” =/= “Country Radio”
If I’m not mistaken, Taylor Swift was rejected by the major labels at first and her dad basically funded what was a quasi-independent label in order for her to release her music. I think there were also rumors of payola involved? I’m not sure what is exactly true, either way, Taylor Switf is an outlier b/c country…
Crazy that Kacey Musgraves can do so well at CMAs and not get any radio play.
More like Pooperintendent amirite
It’s simple. His district doesn’t have a phantom pooper problem, therefore his district is outperforming its peers, justifying his generous salary.
Miranda is the ultimate leader in her chosen field, has two cute daughters, and lives in an utterly fabulous NYC brownstone. Her life is literally #goals and Andi is A FOOL.
How long has it been she you watched TDWP? Andy didn’t quit because of her boyfriend. They had already broken up by the time she quit. Andy quit after Miranda said she saw herself in Andy and she was appalled by what that might mean considering Miranda had just betrayed Stanley Tucci’s loyalty by giving the dream job…
YES, a million times yes. Andy needs new friends and a new boyfriend. It’s one year in a demanding job that will open a ton of doors for her, and no one in her life is remotely supportive. Arghhh...
Not sure she counts as “lame” but I hate that we are supposed to hate Miranda Priestly and think Andy made the right decision by dramatically quitting in favor of her whiny boyfriend who needs a very special birthday party on his birthday. Miranda Priestly is supposed to be a cautionary tale because she is a divorced…
I’ve just now realized my longest recurring nightmare of people I don’t know forcing their way into my home to throw a rager is likely based on Cat in the Hat. I also always had major anxiety reading/hearing that story.
That movie is so creepy. We’re definitely supposed to be sympathetic to Robin William’s character, but looking back I can’t believe she stuck around as long as she did! He took creepy stalker to a whole other level.
The Cat in the Hat used to give me SO much anxiety as a kid. I did NOT understand the appeal of the Cat at all and empathized far too much with the Fish..
omg, yes. I haven’t rewatched that one as an adult, but I think you’re right. The extraordinary (deceitful!) lengths he goes to to be with the kids in violation of the court order (!!!) is pretty alarming, now that I’m thinking about it.
THANK YOU. One of my friends told me that a friend of hers tweeted that being an adult meant identifying more with Sally Field in “Mrs. Doubtfire” and they were right. I rewatched the movie after that and dammit Miranda Hillard gets a raw deal.
Yes, absolutely. There’s the scene where she’s talking to Mrs. Doubtfire (very private thoughts about her marriage) and she says “I didn’t like the person I had to be when I was around him.” or something like that. In other words, she had to be his mother. She had to be the killjoy. And the whole time he’s getting…
The Fish in The Cat in the Hat should be at the top of this list. I know, in the cartoon it is voiced by a guy but the book does not assign that fish a gender and I would argue it is the ultimate Lame Bitch.
We are set up to hate the fish, when all it does is point out that we don’t know that cat and he should not be…
This article reminds me of a quote I saw somewhere that was something along the lines of “You know you’re finally an adult when you start agreeing with the parents in kid’s movies.” Like Ariel’s dad. “But Daddy, I love him!” Um, no, you’re 16 and literally just met the guy. Sit down, and eat your seaweed (I assume…
Sally Field in Mrs Doubtfire.
JERRY MAGUIRE IS A GARBAGE MOVIE KILL IT WITH FIRE
Omg I have always watched that scene where she “kills the mood out of fear that he’ll spill beer on her Italian silk couch” and thought that would be me. He really would have spilled the beer. I just couldn’t let that happen. I’ve thought about that scene a lot and have tried to work against my calling as a neurotic…
