I was actually researching this fairly recently. I don’t have much time to spare at the moment, so I can’t go back and dig up all the sources,* but apparently the V-J day kissing phenomenon was practically universal – you know, if you define the universe as being contained in the same space as the United States. ;)

The way he’s restraining her head and locking the angle of her back, with all that tension and strength on display — while she is not participating at all always weirded me out. Finding out it was actually a stranger grabbing a woman and basically forcibly posing her so that he could mash his face into hers made so…

Consent isn’t heart-warming, I guess. But just look at the headlock the dude’s got her in: this was never romantic.

Look at their left arms. His, gripped tight on the back of her neck, hand in a fist. Hers clenched up, hand also in a fist. Compare this to any photo of passionate couple kissing.

Get fucked. Women spend their entire lives walking around being (at best) vaguely concerned with what might befall them against their will on behalf of men who are “just having a good time”. Go eat a bag of smashed assholes if you don't think that counts as assault.

My girlfriend’s pointed out that he’s a bit Jarvis Cocker-y, and now I can’t unsee it. Cocker’s got a lot more grace and style, though, even with the schoolmaster beard and tiny trousers.

Im going with Big Trouble in Little China for that one, because I’m old.

I’m sorry seems so inadequate, but I am. I have the upmost respect for firefighters. My city has a training ground for firefighters, and I once took part in a (staged) museum recovery training session. Which is absolutely no way comparable to a real-life situation. The best part for me was getting to talk with some of…

If it had come from Bowie’s closet it would have been shinier.

Why does the Lord never send me random articles of clothing? I suppose I should be grateful. If I ever did inherit a share of the heavenly wardrobe, knowing my luck, I’d get sent a pair of mismatched socks - not a dress.

The bottom part of Young Thug’s outfit seems to be based on the Hakama (Wide, long and pleated pants or skirts)

He’s the one who contacted Leslie Jones to dress her when she said no one would.

Oh, Lord, that’s a horrible but probably true reason. That’s what’s wrong with voters today — no moral absolutes anymore! Now get Grandma some whiskey!

Of course he said that. In a time where people everywhere were asking ‘What can I do to help in all of this?’, it would be Trumpy saying ‘How can this benefit me?’

New Yorkers know this guy is a small-time con man and carnival barker. This audio surprises no New Yorker, I’d guess. He’s going to lose his home state by 30 points, at least. Other parts of the country, we’re casting a little side-eye at you for swallowing the endless BS this guy has been slinging for his entire life.

I’m not a New Yorker or even American, but I am a human being. And that’s why I can’t fathom anyone’s mind turning to something as insignificant as this in the face of such horrendous tragedy: “In my own backyard a few thousand innocent people have been killed within a matter of a couple of hours, and my city seems to…

I thought he was watching Muslim celebrants at a New Jersey 7-11 that day.

It’s not easy being a cunt.

This is hours after the attack . . . hours. He tosses out the fact that his building is now the tallest so casually & flippantly. What a fucking sociopath.
