“Shit, I’ve become popular and lost my indie cachet! I have to alienate my fans in huge numbers. Hmm, what would Lars Van Trier do?”

- said no one after eating Papa John’s

You know, when I was a kid back in the early ‘80s and thought about what the year 2017 would be like it had a lot more flying cars and robot butlers and a lot fewer arguments about racist pizza and fans of a cartoon show screaming at minimum wage fast food workers because they ran out of sauce.

I haven’t eaten Papa John’s since the ACA passed and that asshole came out and said he was going to put his workers on part-time so he wouldn’t have to provide health insurance.

Companies like Papa John’s will do everything in their power to deflect blame away from where it should lie if it involves altering what they do in any significant way. More palatable to blame black folks kneeling than to spend more money on better ingredients, or more training, or whatever it would actually take to…

Did he ever stop to think that maybe sales dropped because their pizza costs more than the other major chains but does not taste any better? Folks are broke these days.

I like to eat racists. What do I do

Don’t eat Papa John’s. He’s still a racist, but he just wants to be less overt about it. It’s not for nothing that Nazi numbnuts chose his pizza

I thought the alt-right already had an official greasy, orange pile of garbage that makes your stomach cramp just by looking at it

If that’s the case, someone should really let Papa John know that. His racist, dog whistle comments about protesters are the reason the Alt-Right jumped on board with his brand.

So now I’m confused. Am I supposed to eat Papa John’s or not? On the one hand, I despise racists, on the other, I despise inedible food. What’s a man to do?

Yeah, seems a little out of nowhere and with no examples.

I’d say people will stop believing him when someone accuses him of something more substantial than just being a petulant asshole. The fact that nobody has come forward and accused him of having done anything remotely Weinsteinian means he could’ve just kept his big mouth shut.

The people who would come out particularly well would never make it as far as Baldwin and Tarantino in this business or any other, because you do have to tolerate and turn a blind eye to a lot of bullshit to get that far in any corporate environment.

Who knew Alec Baldwin and Quentin Tarantino would come out on top of far more broadly liked celebrities like Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.

When it takes Alec Baldwin of all people to give us a lesson in humility, we know the mankind is truly fucked.

I think the key is, whereas the first season was told from the perspective of the four main characters, this season we’re also seeing more from Michael’s perspective. If it turns out that this is all yet another trick or plot on his part, it will represent something of a cheat on the part of the show’s creators, which…

I don’t think this family does anything without it being on twitter. Well, maybe some of the corruption, and most of the incest, but mainly they broadcast everything.

Yeah I mean....this show should have ended after season 2. It’s been awful since then.

Contracts don’t tend to have “audience backlash” clauses.
