It's *a* goal, but it's not the *only* goal. Art generally compels people to think, relate, wonder, feel, laugh, cry.

I don't think even the HoC writers are boneheaded enough to try to pull "hate the game, not the player," considering

Not really. It's just a silly cover of Big Rock Candy Mountain.

I was able to beat it fairly easily, but I got a C- on every stage.

Yo! Noid is a great game. It's also fucking impossible.

I would easily buy a whole album of Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch.

But see, none of that really matters. All you have to know is that, no matter what happens, Frank will manipulate events so that he's more powerful afterwards than before. That's it.

No fucking way did O'Reilly pass. If they had asked him, not only would he have done it, he would have talked about nothing else for the next month on his show.

Or House of Thrones, which is obviously a sitcom featuring a toilet salesman.

"Of course, we know he's going to be successful because that's how the show works"

House of Cards is entertaining at times, but it's still like watching Game of Thrones,if the main character was Joffrey and the plot revolved around him always succeeding.

You make this comment in every single review thread. It's getting creepy, bro.

Well, on some level, you know the two "heroes" aren't going to die, so there's not tension there. But it's still nailbiting to see them try to get their objective. And the fucking scene was so brilliantly directed, that I had trouble getting past my awe to even feel tense.

Ha, Oreilly's notes are now up to $9,999,999. Methinks someone is making a mockery of his auction.

As someone who's worked at a newspaper, the idea of a standalone wedding announcement writer — someone who gets paid, and paid well, solely to write wedding announcements for the Sunday paper — is absolutely hilarious. That shit is done in ten minutes by the overworked editorial staff.

"Right, but who are you rooting for?"

It's not that bad when viewed in context. It's one of the least universal musicals I've ever seen, but if you try to put yourself in culture, it's easier to see why it was so popular. "My own body is killing me and there's literally nothing I can do about it, better live one day at a time" is a joke now, but it was a…

It's a hard issue to get right, the pink and frilly thing, and easy to criticize from both sides. Yes, enforced gender coloring and making coloring gender neutral toys pink to make girl versions is pretty awful. On the other hand, saying "Oh, so what, I'm not allowed to like pink and frilly or I'm not feminist? Isn't…

It seems more like his personal trauma has left him in a state of arrested development (hey, that's the name of the show!), and his philosophy hasn't grown beyond "people are stupid and everything is pointless." I find it pretty realistic, actually. I have met plenty of adults with that mindset, and while many of them…

"I feel like agree with the first half of a lot of the things he say, but because of his own damage he takes it way out into crazy town."
