Conversely, they also had an embarrassingly large pushback against gay marriage. So, you know. C'est ça.

Okay, the context in this case matters. The author points out that the philosophy behind the video is a positive, which states:

"Fucking awesome" can imply a lot of things, especially because it does not offer any other explanations, but more importantly, "fucking awesome" is quote obviously not "this is okay because it's genderflipped", and you saying it is is dishonest as fuck.

Hahahahaha, would you just stop with the martyr complex? I quoted your words back to you and now you're quite blatantly downplaying them like all you said was "I DON'T LIKE HICKEYS AND I SEE A LOT OF TEENAGERS WHO HAVE THEM". You are being willfully obtuse at this point. You are not so stupid as to honestly believe

WHO is pretending that it's just fine when genderflipped? As others have pointed out, the video itself was a parody and not an implicit endorsement. On top of that, you are throwing in implied arguments that haven't even been made. I'm certainly not saying the lyrical content is acceptable because the genders have

This is awfully dishonest of what you've said, don't you think? You didn't just say you didn't think it was that great, you literally said "no adult human being should have a visible hickey" and then went on to snark that they're for teenagers and drunk 20-year-olds.

Hey, so. I get where you're coming from, but it always irritates me when someone keeps hammering the HARP DARP JUST A JOKE excuse over and over again because it severely misses the point. You tried to make a joke. That joke didn't go over well. Communication is the prime responsibility of the communicator, and the

Oh dear. I think you missed the point.

I still have no idea what these lyrics are about.

Hey, hey. Be careful with what you're doing there. Being body positive isn't just being body positive for big women, it's for small women, too. There are many women with very slender frames who are perfectly healthy and don't need your judgement. Fat-shaming is far more prominent and systemic, but we don't win this

This stuff really makes my blood boil, because there was a point in time where I was VERY active in sports as a teen and looked like the first or second woman — and yet I was taking stupid diet pills at the same time and eating crackers at school. Looking back, I would kill to have the body I had then and I hate that

Maaan, as a designer, this is the kind of stuff I have nightmares about being forced to work on some day. Someone had to compile those images and get them ready for advertising. God help me if that day ever comes.

...Are we supposed to believe this woman is in dire need of losing weight? I mean, nobody *has* to lose weight, but if they're trying say "LOOK AT THIS UNDESIRABLE FATTY WHO NEEDS TO STOP HOOVERING CHEESEBURGERS INTO THEIR HORRIBLE MOUTH AND USE OUR PRODUCT", is THIS it?

Thank you for that important distinction. As a white person, it's really hard to tell white people apart and I was dangerously close to forgetting that we're not all the same.

GIIIIIRL.

Definitely, yes. To some extent, I had an idea that a lot of times POC were unfairly treated as unicorns for having certain tastes, especially when they don't conform to stereotypes, but I guess I hadn't thought of it in cases like this when there are two black women riffing on "white hobbies" on screen. There seems

I can't really relate, so it's hard to know how to respond to that except to say that it's an interesting perspective that I wouldn't have really thought of. I'm white and love all of those things and thought the jabs were spot-on while still being hilarious, but I also don't have to encounter a lot of white

Fellow white person: I thought their imitations were hilarious and sorely needed. I AM A RACE TRAITOR!!$(!%29502525FUCK

UGH SHE IS THE BEST. She and Samira Wiley need their own show where they just mock white people for a half an hour.

Not to mention the deference it's given in institutions that should be otherwise more concerned about academia. Why are school sports even a thing? I feel kind of embarrassed when people describe certain athletes as 'heros' (not counting the ones who do things like open children's hospitals and other philanthropy) —
