Correct. The first few paragraphs of this review are just the reviewer reading way too far into something that isn't there in order to make his point.

'If you don't call them 'buns', what do you call the unit of measurement? 'Breads?''
I like Off! quite a bit. My one major problem with them is how expensive their shit is. I get that a lot of LP releases are now like $20, but there are still tons that are $10-15, and I feel like a punk album that's 15 minutes long should be one of them (I'm referring to their last album; no idea how much this one…
I loved 'Axis of Evol', 'Outside Love' a little less. I was with this song until the rapping part, but then it just went into straight stupidity, especially lyrically. I'll probably end up passing on this. Wish I liked it more; I still regularly listen to 'Axis of Evol'.
I have kind of a dumb question: why were there two different ways for Comedy Central to bleep the F-bomb? When it was delivered over the video game, it was the normal bleeping sound. But when a character that we can see would say it, it was one of those 'silent-bleeps'. It took me a few minutes to figure out if Adam,…
This review is four months old, but I just watched this movie and I really feel like the review missed the mark. Even though Morris' recent documentaries have been about popular subjects and people, I don't feel like he is as interested in filming an exposé of sorts as he is about simply showing us very public figures…
Yeah, I'm a dope. I uncharacteristically got all jazzed up about the dumb grade and reflexively posted.
I normally don't care about the grades here, but this was my exact thought upon seeing the grade for this. Does anything get an 'A' on this site? Jesus, it's Persona. This should be a slam dunk 'A'.
Why does anyone do anything?
Have you listened to it, though? Not trying to be snarky. It's just that it's great.
Ah, thanks. I was trying to use them below and was having a hell of a time finding a source that didn't screw up the commenting formatting.
Do you use keyboard shortcuts to put them in? Disqus really seems to hate when I paste in text from another source. The formatting is always weird and screws up the rest of my post.
Yep, and not just the umlaut. There are tons of words (mostly borrowed foreign words) whose diacritical marks have kind of faded away as the words became more common and their pronunciations more standard. For example, rôle, hôtel, début, etc. The New Yorker just likes to cling to them, although nowadays they're kind…
I hate Jay-Z, Drake, and Kanye, but Kendrick's Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City is leaps and bounds better than Macklemore's album.
Same here, and from what I can gather, it doesn't seem to be more than just stubbornly clinging to what has historically been grammatically correct. They're prescriptive grammaticists, not descriptive.
You're good people, MBDW.
haha, I guess you're right. Personally, I hated Gaius more. I also hated Lee and that woman who started dating Lee after Billy (the presidential aide) SPOILERS got shot and killed. Her and Billy were deeply in love and cute, but the second chiseled jaw and son-of-the-Commander Lee Adama showed the slightest interest…
I tend to side with the players, in that I think any age limit in the NBA is ridiculous until they start paying college players or, as you say, working out a more fluid NBDL. Not that I think getting huge scholarships isn't a payment, but when you consider how much money these colleges make off these kids (and how…
There are definitely sloggy episodes and moments. I think some of the keys to increasing your enjoyment are to make it more social (like talking about/mocking it with friends), having favorite and least favorite characters, and also not taking it as seriously as it takes itself sometimes.
