Because they put an addictive chemical in their chicken that makes you crave it fortnightly, smartass

Hey, is that devil the one down in Georgia who Charlie Daniels warned us about. Because Taco Bell is courting disaster with their mockery!

Stupid chief, leaving it up to your imagination like that! I bet he’s going to take you off the case.

Go get them.

The world is a corpse, and all of humankind are maggots!

Like Woody Allen would want to work with Greta Gerwig again. She is over 30, for pete’s sake!

This GoFundMe is being taken down today at 5 PM PST, but if you would like to throw in a few bucks to help the Boys & Girls Club of Harlem in NYC and buy tickets for a whole lot of awesome kids to go see ‘Black Panther’ next month (the majority of whom are of color), click this link. Yes, it is authentic. Thanks.

That is not accurate. The age of consent in the US is 18 unless a state specifies a different age like 16 or 17.

Yeah, and in a just world, those assholes would have to use Kinja.

Yeah messing with 17 year olds at all, at his age, and certainly even in a manner APPROACHING what you’ve described is, at best, alarming. Anyone who does that is either inexcusably immature or a genuine predator.

Of everything you’ve listed here, and from the outside looking in of course, the only thing that rises to the level of “serious” to me is the exposing his dick thing. Depending on the details that could range from just really stupid all the way to extremely dangerous.

He did.

What exactly should he apologize for? From what i’ve read nothing illegal was done and he didn’t harass anyone.

I think you’re right - there are some actions that can’t be fully made-up for, especially ones that hurt people psychologically or emotionally. You can do better, you can apologize and see if there’s any way you can mitigate the damage to the one hurt (if they want it), you can take your punishment (if any) without…

I don’t know if I see it quite that cynically. It’s a weird thing we’ve become the last decade or so, where the late-night comedians are pretty much expected to do the heavy lifting of the in-depth sit-down interviews that used to be done by the actual media.

Every powerful and / or successful person in history cruelly mistreated somebody on their way to success or during the height of their success, except Marie Curie.

I’m not defending Franco here, but social media is a cesspool where commenters jockey for attention by posting the most outrage-filled hot takes they can muster. So it may not be the ideal forum for a wide-ranging, nuanced discussion about improving gender equality.

I like how he says he wants to go forward with these allegations “outside of social media.” Look, I’ll do whatever you want, just stop talking about my perviness on a forum that is free and widely available to the moviegoing public. It’s like in the movies when a woman starts calling out a dude for his bullshit and…

I’m not sure what you Googled, but the age of consent is set by states. I know NY’s is 17 (because oddly, it was part of my Bar prep). I don’t think people were saying what Franco did was illegal, as I think it was in NY. They were saying it was skeezy. It was skeezy.

I dunno, I think Milo at least mixes up his shtick a little. This guy’s just stuck in an endless loop of “I’m not making up random arguments and putting them into other people’s mouths, you’re making up random arguments and putting them into other people’s mouths!” Milo would at least change the topic to something…
