I'm mad at Ricky Gervais for a lot of things: for the monstrously dehumanizing way he talks about fat people; for

Remember that Boob Song that Seth MacFarlane sang at the Oscars that everyone thought was just so funny and Jennifer Lawrence gave a victory fist pump that nobody saw her boobs yet? Yeah, this is way we didn't think that shit was funny.
