What a dork.

I hope by "It's too bad" you really mean "Thank God".

Where's his hometown?

Many people would argue that the line is where your depiction of the culture moves into stereotypes that have negative connotations or are offensive. While I'm not Japanese, so I can't speak to whether they would find this offensive, I could understand why they might, though given how some aspects of Japanese culture…

Take care Kelly. I wouldn't even go near a TGI Fridays if I were you.

We doe sometimes. The problem is that our alternatives are respectively, That One Place With People Who Talk Kind of Funny, The Place Mel Gibson Did That One Movie About Before We Realized He Was An Insane Racist , and That One Place Where People Live Who Couldn't Keep Their Obnoxious Ancestors From Coming Over Here…

Just throwing it out there ... you might be over-thinking the reasons for Frozen's popularity.

If Christian Bale was named Muslim Bale - they prob wouldn't be crying about whitewashing in Exodus!

Because it is impossible to be wrong 100 percent of the time, no matter how close you come.

Eh, I don't think you can say the Christians "co-opted" him. There were plenty of Jews involved with the early church.

To me, the more troubling this is that they would shoot the film.

Keeping with the motif, it really should be called after a location. My personal nomination is Weinerland.

Silly me. Here I was thinking that it wasn't possible to be more condescending than a character on an Aaron Sorkin show.

But even if you wanted to do it because you thought filming the inside of an anaconda would draw a bunch of viewers, it still would have worked better to stuff a camera inside a big hunk of fresh meat or something.

Why not just like ... put a camera inside something that is easy for them to ingest?

Yep, well, good riddance.

Except, you know, even the Tea Party loons can manage to find the spectacularly glaring hole in that logic.

Yeah, it's pretty dumb, especially considering some of the gems that Sorkin's generation has given us.

That still could look very different than what we've seen from the House however. There is recognition there that Congress is seen in an even more dim light than the President is currently, and I think they are aware that part of it is the House of Representative's insistence on passing pointless bills.
