Agree with Tina. You don’t get to pick (unless it’s really really rare that someone comes in and you can shuffle the responsibility off on someone else, but that’s also pretty dickish). And honestly, I have problems with the idea of trying to keep oneself that morally pure. Like, I am super not defending Cosby here,…

What the hell is going on? This is like the third comment I’ve seen referencing a possible Gawker implosion (I think). What up?

Ooh. If you can at all swing a tasting, you would probably be better off. I drink a lot of scotch, but I don’t know any of the shit you’re supposed to say about it, like whether it’s a this or a that or it tastes like this, or whatever. However, my default go-to is Macallan 10 year old for single malt. I don’t drink…

Welcome to the fun club. :)

I said it somewhere else, but I really think to some extent Fox is imploding. They were apparently really behind Rubio because he was the candidate they thought would be electable and decent (by their lights) but the crap about Trump’s “fingers” burned that bridge even before he dropped out. They don’t find Cruz any…

NGL, I am a Golgothan hater. :)

Or, as they call it on Yo Is This Racist, “White History Eleven Months”.

And she doesn’t take his shit, as far as I can see. I’m actually really pleased that Fox stood up for her (given the Breitbart shitshow, that wasn’t a guarantee). At the same time, I have the feeling that Trump is all the chickens coming home to roost for Fox, and they seem to be out of their minds that they can’t use…

I honestly would also guess that mostly based on the location and the fact that the violence in Mexico (which the US is absolutely and utterly complicit in) seems to be so extreme. But I would base that assumption on the violence inflicted, not on the race of the victims. You don’t shoot someone repeatedly, then light…

I get that. I think that Trump is classless enough to not have the slightest grasp of what’s “Presidential”, slimy enough to not care, and willful enough to use his proxies to claim that he’s not doing the actual tweeting, and I think for as long as that justification lasts, who actually has the phone in their hands…

So it’s not the same situation as Obama, and probably Trump would, if president, still have assistants that could type the tweets for him. I don’t know whether the Secret Service would care as much about their phones as they did Obama’s.

I read somewhere that there’s a huge fight going on at Fox right now between O’Reilly and Kelly and their respective camps, and the “problem” is that Kelly is winning. Ailes is apparently fine with this because he at least is aware of the age problem, but O’Reilly is fucking pissed. I can see where, from Trump and…

I thought it was pretty much a done deal that he doesn’t actually tweet for himself?

Classier.

Additionally, government functions exactly the opposite of business. If we were talking about a successful businessman, which as not_productive points out we’re not, we would still be in deep shit, because when government revenues fall, government spending should increase to guarantee the social safety net. (Since not…

We have a number of similar theaters here, but honestly I generally deal by waiting until the movie has been out for-fucking-ever to see it. I saw The Force Awakens in January during a daytime matinee at a theater downtown and it was still almost half full, but manageable. It’s just that I love going to SIFF and I…

This one goes out to Trump’s voters.

When I was a teenager I thought I was super quiet when I whispered. I forgot that no one actually is in a theater. So I can see some people just not realising that there’s something about the sound of a voice in the theater, but I honestly think most people don’t give a fuck. I was at the hospital yesterday in a…

I used to tell them as soon as the movie started and they hadn’t shut up. I mean, what the fuck do they think previews are for, other than showing you what movie you don’t ever want to see? Maybe they’re also possibly an indication that the movie is starting? That gets so much aggro though (I forgot about the time my…

Yeah, I’ve been to one. It was a pretty good experience. Unfortunately, a lot of my movie-going is at SIFF, and they aren’t using those theaters. Other than those movies, I rarely go out to movies any more, tbh.
