It really is awful. I watched it in college at the recommendation of friends who insisted it was “badass,” an opinion I’m sure they formed when they saw it when it was new and they were probably 13 years old. In all fairness, if I had seen it at 13, I’m sure I would have felt the same way. Still, if someone recommends…

The person who reads a comment about a fucking piece of shit idiot, sees hundreds of people calling him out for being a fucking piece of shit idiot, and rather than consider that OP might be a fucking piece of shit idiot, decides to chime in and be a fucking piece of shit idiot too.

No, he is wrong, and he’s an asshole.

Because a lot of people are horrible, and a lot of people are stupid, and there’s a lot of overlap between the two groups.

You’re just doubling down on an argument that is factually wrong from top to bottom. Top notch stuff, this.

Your comment amounts to “fuck those disease-having pieces of shit.”

I hope that he makes it dark and gritty, and spends the first third telling us what the Danger Zone was like during its formative years.

I went with “siffy” for a brief while, then it ended up as “Syfylis.” 

My argument is not absolute, or that other people’s feelings don’t matter. My argument is that context matters. Take your hypothetical necklace—let’s say that for both you and your grandmother it is totally innocuous. If you’re spending time with just grandma, sure, wear it; or at a family gathering, if your family…

First: this assumes that everywhere the word is used to refer mostly or exclusively to shitty people. This is mostly true in America. It is far from true in the UK and Australia (especially Australia). It’s more multipurpose, like the word “fuck.” I’ve heard it used as an intensive (“that cunting” [noun]), a term of…

I’m not going to lie, I’m picturing Ryan Gosling’s character from The Nice Guys as Willy Wonka, and it works perfectly. 

Sure, but calling them “the opposite of D.C. movies” seems a little mean-spirited.

That settles that, then. I’m glad I was here to get the definitive take on the subject.

Yes, because the word “cunt” has identical usage and cultural attitudes towards it in America as in the UK, just like the word “fanny.”

Soooo fuuuu-tiiiile

We certainly had to read Eliot, and spend too much time on “J. Alfred Prufrock,” but there was no memorization whatsoever.

If you have to ask if it’s Numberwang, it isn’t Numberwang.

The pacing is also still all over the place, with episodes clocking in at anywhere from 28 to 36 minutes. There were a number of “rake gag”-structured jokes that just didn’t land for me, so those generous run times felt especially bloated. I enjoyed these new episode more than the abysmal fourth season, and might even…

I watched Upgrade yesterday, and it was fantastic. Easily my favorite movie I’ve seen this year. Although to be fair, the only other movie I’ve really liked in 2018 has been The Death of Stalin, but I’d expect Upgrade to be in contention at year’s end.
