I was actually surprised at how Book of Mormon wasn't totally anti-religion. It was basically like "religion is inherently pretty silly, but there are some good aspects. Try to not take it too seriously".

Eh, I feel like while they have been viewed as "plain speaking truth tellers", they would think of themselves more just as the creators of entertainment.

Maybe its because I'm not American, but the humour of Team America was that it was so unbelievably silly that it could only be taken as a total piss take.

Also Facebook. It's addictive, but it destroys their ability to form healthy relationships, and thus renders their lives entirely meaningless. It's a slow burn.

You're a commie, traitor!*

Pfft, vinyl. I prefer tribal chanting.

"Commie traitor" has to be the funniest and most misjudged insult. It's impossible to be offended by, and it makes the insulter look ridiculous. He may as well have said "Josh Groban is a silly poo poo face".

Reminds me of a bakery near my old house. I say bakery. I mean cupcake shop. It was all done up with pastel colours, a lovely bright sign. But all it sold was cupcakes for like $7 each.

Requesting that the media not extensively cover Trump is sort of like hoping a group of disobedient five year olds won't gorge themselves at an unsupervised cake buffet.

This lady reminds me of Jane Lynch's bit part in Walk Hard. The ever professional broadcaster who is expertly covering up how much she hates her jobs and everyone involved with it.

She's a witch!

The United States is *the most* ridiculous country.

"This roundabout was built circa 2000"

Right. Yeah, I dunno though. I guess there may be a "thin edge of the wedge" argument, but everyone lost their minds with the proposed Abbott changes. Seems like tampering with medicare is a very big no no

After watching Hounds of Love, my girlfriend and I went to see the house owned by the two murderers that inspired the film. Because, ya know, they lived 5 minutes away from me. Eeep.

I don't think Australia technically has "government-subsidized insurance". It might do, because a lot of people do have their own private insurance, but Medicare, as its known, is just universal health care. As in, you go to a public hospital and Medicare sorts it out. It's just free treatment, not free insurance.

I think a huge part of the reason why people really like Merkel is not necessarily because she's a liberal superhero, but more because she is quite obviously a calm and intelligent person. She doesn't whip Germany into a mad fear in order to get votes.

Nah, that's good stuff because it will translate into their wrestling personas. They'll probably bond through being good at wrestling and then have to balance that bonding with the real life betrayal. Drama!

I know it seems silly to defend the world's biggest movie franchise as though it's the underdog, but I think people here give the films a hard go.

That was a fantastic article.
