Those dry White trust fund kids don’t deserve Destiny’s Child. I got a kick from reading about how Vince Staples clowned them and spoke truth during his set last night.

..and didn’t get into ANY of them.

Can I get a waiver since I made fun of shit even when I was young? I was a teenager when Blackie Lawless wore a saw blade on his crotch and I thought it was pretty fucking stupid then.

You may be joking about it, but let’s be honest, we’d pay to see that.

SPOILER ALERT

I too picked up on the gay bf trope for Krasinski’s character and for a second I was like hey look at this, a Gay best friend who isn’t being played completely stereotypically over the top! Then they went for the other tired trope of Nice Guy™️ and it all became clear. The best way to end this mess should have been…

Not to pick nits- but Emily Giffin is from Atlanta....

Just a quick point of correction: the author is American. Funnily enough, now that I’m thinking about it, most of her books that I’ve read involve some cheating scandal...

No, she’s an American author. I don’t think the Brits are any more into infidelity than we are.

The whole “everything will be fine if we just keep lots of secrets” thing drives me crazy in a variety of genres. It’s just so lazy. It’s also like “Chekov’s secret”. You know that any secret will be revealed by the third act.

Some of y’all are missing some info on this. Some of these schools went to him to apply. Not the other way around.

Applying to 10-20 schools is a problem, but mostly because it is an expensive and time-intensive process that favors upper income families who have the funds and vacation time to craft targeted applications and make campus visits. Poor kids and their parents rarely have the resources to apply that extensively. But,…

“I think it’s a little obnoxious because you can only go to one,” Morris added. “You can only take one full ride and you are taking a spot from someone else who worked really hard.”

A more skillful movie could use the dual cheating to show that this relationship really wasn’t working, while also not letting the best friend off the hook for her behavior. This...is not that movie.

“George Hamilton” has me tapping out to go do some work. It’s not getting any better than that today.

They mad because he did what white kids are taught to do; apply to safety schools and reach schools in your geographic area and also apply to schools that fit that criteria nationally.

Because he fucking wanted to? What more reason than that does he need?

OMG, YES! And I gotta say, if someone runs up to me and says, “There’s no time to explain,” I’m going to say, “You’d better make time, because I’m not going anywhere or doing anything until you do.” Most likely because I’m either at work, and I take my job responsibilities too seriously to just leave, or I’m in my…

This is well-argued but I just don’t think I can accept a 2011 movie about people cheating on each other being the best superhero film of 1994.

To explain exactly what makes Something Borrowed so egregious, it’s helpful to compare it to another bad, factory-produced 21st-century rom-com that pits Kate Hudson against a brunette best friend, 2009’s Bride Wars.
