It’ll never not be amusing to see Americans misunderstand the term “overlander”

I think that’s arguably the core issue of the whole MeToo movement. Everyone is against the people who victimized them or their friends and sexual abuse in the abstract, but systemic change also requires people to stop trying to accuse the victimizers that they’re friends with, and that’s just a bridge too far for a…

There’s been a reasonable uptick in content quality since the sale, though.  I scrapped with Hassenger a bit a few days ago, and it was refreshing to see a writer 1. return to the site after a couple of years, and 2. actually wade into the comments section.  I’ve also noticed a decline in clickbaity outrage bullshit…

Besides being a cliche, a line like “I ain’t no spice Girl” is pretty ironic given that the Spice Girls’ movie - for all its many faults - wasn’t an anonymous biopic.

Scorsese’s wife has battled Parkinson’s for a decade or two now, I believe. Could easily explain an on-site nurse.

Would that have triggered you like this one did, snowflake?

There once was a man from Nantucket
Whose newspaper told him to suck it
They did not approve
And told him to move
From public beach where he had stuck it

It’s like we learned nothing from “No Country For Old Men”

In a world...where time can stop when you say “time, stop!”

Don’t bother looking this up because of course it is true. Why do you think they recommend that children sit in rear facing car seats as long as possible?

Deadpool 2 makes no claim to be for kids while Bluey does.

Aww babe, thank you!

As if I’d get advice on taste from someone in Arizona. 

Because the wheels are already done.

You’re effectively saying “The thing you’ve done is shitty, and I don’t like it. Why didn’t you do it a way I like?”

Because I did it a way I like. 

Love your responses in this thread.  You do you, my man.

Because I don’t want standard grey or black. 

That’s fine. I like them. 

That’s definitely not me. This thing will get miles. 

I didn’t think the movie was trying to make anyone a hero or a villain. Tracy and Broderick’s characters are antagonistic toward one another, but they’re ultimately both protagonists in the story the movie is telling. In the sense of “the moral of the story,” I guess you can point to the comeuppance Broderick’s…

The film is genius in playing to the public’s inherent affection towards Matthew Broderick, who is very much introduced as the relatable audience surrogate reacting to the absurdly heightened political ambitions of a high school student. Over time more is revealed about his character - his cold relationship with his…

In the legal sense, yes. But it is clear that we are supposed to identify and sympathize with Broderick’s character and find Tracy insufferable. Although the sequel novel (not filmed) corrects some of this and makes her more human.
