I’m so out of touch.

Or Baby, It’s Cold Outside was written at a time when it was frowned upon for a single woman to be openly interested in sex and she and the guy are playing a game to get what they both want.

The Watchers only made $7M in its opening weekend so I guess you could say that nobody watches The Watchers. 

I mean you get that from the lyrics. The traditionally woman part never says that she does not want to stay. All her excuses are about what family and friends will say.

No, it’s The AV Club™!

“They keep moving the lines in for some reason. I do this joke about the way people justify about using their cell phone. You don’t seem important the way you scroll through them like a gay French king. I did this line recently in front of a live audience. They thought, ‘What do you mean gay? What are you doing? What…

It is October 2019. I am reading a news story about how “Baby It’s Cold Outside” is bad. They say there is a new version by John Legend and Kelly Clarkson.

I enjoyed Red Skelton’s appearance in Captain America: The First Avenger. 

“Actually, the Ewoks are more the Viet Cong because the Empire came to their home and they defeat them using low tech methods”

It’s a song about, as our Britt Hayes put it, “a woman being held hostage by some guy who may or may not have drugged her adult beverage.”

I just...don’t know what the fuck Seinfeld is on about. Dude never was in any danger of being too fucking edgy, blue, or controversial. I’ve not seen a single thing that approaches even the tamer parts of a Bill Burr or Patton Oswalt show.

On point. The song is a time capsule of the way adults used to flirt. Within the context of the song there is no rapey vibe at all. People of that time probably just thought it was a cute way to demonstrate the playfulness of dating in a more reserved society.

‘It’s a song about, as our Britt Hayes put it, “a woman being held hostage by some guy who may or may not have drugged her adult beverage.”’

Christ, isn’t a little early for the “Baby It’s Cold Outside” clickbait discourse machine to fire up again? Didn’t we settle this years ago, or has the COVID brain fog destroyed that part of our collective memory?

“Phew, close one... anyway, I pulled some strings, and I got us a replacement on short notice. Do you guys remember that show Roseanne?”

I’d prefer a Peeta-focused movie highlighting more of his baking-inspired camouflage trickery!

There is a distinct lack of Mr. Mom Merchandising in this world.

my current Star Wars hot take (esp after watching the prequels) is there’s too much exposure to the Jedi. They’re overpowered, and too self-serious. It’s like reading Lord of the Rings, finding Gandalf to be awesome (correctly), and then making all subsequent Middle Earth media about groups, councils, cities of…

This movie needs to end with Venom, Kraven, Madame Web, Vulture and Morbius all standing together with dramatic music like they are the Superfriends! What! One can only hope for something that stupid!

Based on the lack of musical numbers in this trailer I can only assume this is a musical.
