...where did I say that YOU couldn’t have an opinion? Clearly I know that I can, and I WILL: nor do I need to meet your imaginary standards or agree with you to do so. Clearly I know what kind of content is posted on theroot.com—since I’m here just like you are. Don’t give yourself too much credit. If YOU can’t tolerat…

One of the boys from this school was arrested for violently raping a girl.

Eh, you’re wrong on all counts. You’re so easy, you’ll believe anything the tabloids say. Everybody she’s ever worked with she’s become friends with and have nothing but good things to say about her. Ask JayZ and Beyonce. Mary J. Blige. The late Aretha, who is nobody’s fool. Even Courtney Love loves her. Lol. You only…

Who said anything about need

also people in their mid-30s remember the first 80s retro boom in the late 90s.

Her early music. Bikini Kill. She was describing what he said, and how he reacted to her Julie Ruin stuff. 

We can even save some time and spice money by giving them unseasoned chicken and hot dogs that aren’t burned (white people like their meat medium rare).

and yet, here we are.

I’m not sure I would be the person I am today if I hadn’t been introduced to Bikini Kill when I was 12. That music gave me strength at a time when everything was scary, especially the men who leered at me despite (or because of) my age.

It’s to keep the pen from reproducing.

That kindof fits too. i read the Daily Beast, and would never pay for it, just because of stories like the one above. In the same page, they had a story about “the most-loved man in television.,” which is apparently about some netflix show. So, yeah, they stretch things a lot...

Louis CK — and this is only a comment about his ticketing practices — used to do a good thing with his tickets that seemed to have totally stopped resale. They could only be purchased directly, only so many tickets could be purchased on a single credit card, and if the zip code for the credit card used to purchase…

Fuck me running, I was sitting there watching the timer count down and clicked the MOMENT they went on sale, and couldn’t even get a pair of tickets in my cart. It was disgusting. There is absolutely no exaggeration to the line in the article saying they were sold in a literal second. I’m still fucking mad about it.

Non transferable tickets with names that have to match IDs or be for kids.

The normal way to handle this is to make the tickets individual, put the buyers name on it, inform buyers that resold tickets are void and null, and demand some form of ID at the door.
If the demand is expected to be waaay higher than the number of tickets, just do what the large Fusion festival in Germany does: ppl…

The Double Quarter Pounder has existed for decades. Along with the Double Whopper and the Wendy’s Double, this isn’t exactly treading new ground.

Sure. You can do whatever the hell you want with art on your end. I certainly have relationships with lots of works that are very different from what their creators intended. What you don’t get to do is browbeat artists into making the kind of art you want. You get to decide if you want it when it’s done. You don’t…

Seriously as a comic book fan it can be so infuriating at times the things people will not just give into suspension of disbelief with. Robots time travel and complete disregard for continuity fine, make spider man black screaming and forming a lynch mob.

They believe “SJWs” forced Harmon to hire women, and thus anything they dislike about this season is the fault of those women.

I’ve been saying this for years: Fuck fans. You don’t own shit, you didn’t do shit, you’re just a customer. You don’t like the product anymore, go shop somewhere else. You’re not entitled to a goddamn thing.
