Oh yeah, your article was a pretty even take on it, so I can see why my comment came across as trying to silence you. It was a more general response to the people who are going the extreme out of their way to say that her dislike is invalid like the Post article you linked to. 

Is there a hater equivalent to the stupid “Shhhh. Let people enjoy things” meme? Like “let people not enjoy things”. Sometimes people just want to vent some spleen about drinks they don’t like. You don’t have to come to the defense of something that is a matter of literal taste. She’s not saying you’re a bad person…

We recently switched to Bubbly and I want to lead a LaCroixvolution

You need to read older books if you’re having trouble parsing that. 

See also how I found the Hannibal TV show wonderfully campy at times precisely because it was so over the top, and Bryan Fuller knew it was over the top, and still wanted it to be sincere and straight-faced. The excess + seriousness was the point which helped make it tragic and operatic and campy at the same time. You…

I’m betting it’ll be like when I saw the Phoenix Wright movie in DC for its international film festival. Full theater with only like 3 people cackling throughout the whole thing (me, a friend, and a stranger) because I think we were the only ones who had played the game.

Prometheus is a better Jesus figure than Jesus was. Jesus was tortured and died on the cross in a couple days. Prometheus’ liver is torn out by a vulture every day.

I’m gonna check out Promytheus: The God of Fyre.

Fully expect that it’s bad/mediocre, but the 12-year-old natureslayer who wanted to get into genetics to create RL Pokemon is freaking out inside of me at the prospect of seeing this movie (see the Dewott and oshawott dolls in my avatar). So yeah, I’m still gonna go and luxray-iate in it.

Well, once Vanjie is able to play herself AND tell jokes at the same time as opposed to her comedy being sort of incidental, maybe you’ll have a point. Silky plays herself, but so did Bianca all the time. Difference is actually having punchlines.

I loved Bike Dream and some of the other songs, but I just can’t get into autotune as an aesthetic choice so I have to always skip past those two songs. 

Because they already have Pac-Man? Despite Ms. Pac-Man being better in every single way.

I almost do if only to stop them from patting themselves on the back (and also because the way they shot and wrote it, you can easily change the subtitles/dubbing in other countries to get around that he said on a date with a man). Yes, the ideal is for someone’s sexuality to only be a part of them as a…

My reading of the “it wasn’t earned” is more like “it could have been so much better” rather than it shouldn’t have existed in the first place. They wanted that Wonder Woman rising up in the trenches but without the same emotional/structural foregrounding. Just imagine how much better it could have been.

The correct…

Cool, except that in no way is what your implications were with your first comment. Hyperbole and intentionally misreading what the author said is beyond just semantics.

“Which is something I would definitely expect to see from this site, given how it’s already told women the same thing about the A-Force moment because sexual politics or something.”

Yes, the site did that and not one of the female writers on the site detailing an execution problem she and others have had with it, also…

It sounds like Voltaire’s side project when his own songs get too dark. Like he needs a break from it all.

He also wrote this great song from the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy:

A bit for make-up, especially when it’s THAT intense. But black actresses have been known for having to do their own hair and makeup because hairstylists don’t know or don’t bother to know the hair difference: https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/59x4xd/black-actresses-are-calling-out-hollywood-for-making-them-do-their-o…

This looks 9000x better than what we got in the show. Dragons look menacing. Can tell how massive the ice storm the NK summoned. Obvious that the battle still happens at night.
