I take movies roughly as seriously as they take themselves. Fast and Furious franchise? A brain-off fun time. This movie, on the other hand, takes itself super seriously and should be mocked appropriately.

There are, of course, other medically necessary uses for “birth control” than just controlling birth. Even if this were a legitimate argument. Which it isn’t.
Even if the idea of “poor women don’t deserve to have sex” (and, of course, “women don’t deserve to have any way to prevent pregnancy that’s under their own control rather than a man’s, so if you’re raped or your partner refuses to wear a condom, too bad, bitch!”) wasn’t inherently idiotic and deeply misogynistic, are…
I love that, for these people, filling out a two page form is an "undue burden" but 48 hour waiting periods and making women drive 400 miles to the nearest Women's Health clinic isn't.
I was at Silicon Valley Comic Con this weekend and saw Jeremy Renner’s panel. I was surprised how nice he seemed after he was kind of an ass in that interview. At least in that hour, he was a total sweetheart to the fans. He came down from the stage to hug some girl whose birthday it was (she didn’t ask, she was just…
There’s a huge difference between being told what to think and someone factually explaining what happened.
I think there is something weird and psychosexual in his inability to take criticism from her. He cannot abide her not liking him - her dissent. At first, it seemed like the usual politician versus pesky reporter war, but it’s not. There’s something about her being female that he cannot stand.
Add making me side with Fox News to the reasons I hate Donald Trump.
The whole thing is just so disgusting and disheartening. This poor girl was forced to switch high schools for the crime of being raped, but no, it’s the poor rapist who is the real victim here. He lost his Harvard scholarship! Whenever someone googles him, they’ll discover that he raped someone, when all he did was…
The students made this girl’s life a living hell when she returned. The school allowed it. The parents were all supporting Labrie. There wasn’t ONE family that reached out to the victim. Sickening.
Also, I missed the earlier articles (the original one about the Vice story and the earlier one about the godawful Vanity Fair article), and good lord, the comments are infuriating.
Yes. However it happens, whatever the reason, he is getting some deserved jail time & being held accountable. But it won't change him; you'd think that while he's awaiting his appeal he would be on his absolutely best behavior. Nope. Clear sign of exactly what his character is.
This should have more stars.
Nope. Rape is never okay, even when it happens to a rapist.
Owen Labrie, who was not forced to face the consequences of disregarding rules and restrictions about consent is being sent to jail when he disregarded the rules and restrictions of his parole. It’s almost like not facing consequences for raping someone means he didn’t learn a lesson.
And/or she told herself that. Which is exactly that which I would have done. Told myself that if I didn’t engage, his tiresome game would eventually lose steam; told myself that if I blocked him, he might escalate; told myself that this was his escape valve, and that to close it might lead to increasingly dangerous…
Your naivety is sad and pathetic. How old are you? 16? Or are you one of those people who never had to work a “demeaning” service job?
Exactly! Last place I worked we couldn't clock out unless we claimed a certain amount. If it was absolutely dead and we didn't make that amount we had to have a manager override. I guarantee you, needing that override more than once got your ass fired.
Oh you’re so right. No one would ever screw over their employees and just not care what hourly wage they make./s
The passive-aggressive “sorry” really just puts it over the top. You’re not sorry. You’re quite happy to be an ass to your poor waitress (who, I’m gonna go out on a limb here, this legislator probably judges haaaaaard for being a Hooters waitress).
