Sigh. I was the same age when Revenge of the Nerds came out and I (girl) saw it as a harmless “win” for the head nerd, because that’s how the movie presented it. I wish I could go back in time and give young me a lecture about rape culture.

One of the reasons It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia works as a comedy is because their various schemes NEVER work and usually backfire on them, because the gang is a bunch of self-centered pricks. Their undoing is always their own doing 

I think you have a good point in giving some latitude for non-PC things. BUT, in the context of this movie, we have to acknowledge that this is very wrong and thanks to new laws very illegal. 

Even 11-year-old me knew there was something off about that scene in Revenge of the Nerds. I have no idea if it was controversial at the time — sadly, probably not — but it had a distinct odor from the beginning.

It’s interesting that the whole cultural milieu of the late 90s and early 2000s was monster truck misogyny and teenage obnoxiousness. 

What?

And then it all comes to a screeching halt in the next fifteen-thirty years or less. Climate, war, virus, anything really at this point... Our species’ ability to adapt is overrated.

WandaVision looks like it’s going to be pretty awesome. 

“I definitely have days where I say, ‘Why me?’ And then I go, ‘Well, why not me?’ Who else? Who else besides me deserves this? None of us do.”

Hot take: cancer sucks

This is the spinoff where everyone continues to say “Oh, Josie, your music is so great!” then completely ignore her plot-wise.

Hopefully Kevin’s tickle porn career takes off so he can move to NY too.

It’s not really about holding up entertainment to “purity tests” - which is definitely a reference made mostly by people whose favorite gay jokes flopped at Thanksgiving but I’m not going to assume that’s you - but instead about examining changes in culture and shifting acceptance and what old entertainment can tell…

I think that episode probably holds up ok, because the joke isn’t actually at the expense of gay men. The joke is that George and Jerry are insecure children.

I recall an episode where Jerry got huffy at someone who hit on his gay tablemate right in front of him, feeling insulted that the interloper didn’t even consider that the two of them were an item. Fairly progressive for the mid-90s.

Between the Spanish-language halftime show and the relentless onslaught of gay-leaning ads, I bet a large percentage of the nation was triggered beyond repair.

Shakira was hot as fuck. J-Lo not far behind. Even my wife Ursa was turned on. We.loved that these middle-aged ladies were so talented, self-assured, and sexy. Holy shit, this was WAY better than stupid Adam Levine last year.

Depressingly, today it is.

Would you prefer he not say anything about the lack of diversity? When someone makes a point of actually saying something people criticize them as opposed to all the people that don’t say anything.
