I know some people who have great taste in music that love that song, and it's not like it's hate song territory for me or anything, but it just seems like some dude took a vacation and wrote a song about it.

I heard some of that, with some Harmonia and Cluster thrown in.

I kind of feel like In a Lonely Place Ale would be maybe the most realistically proto-goth beer possible.

They darkened it a little. Opinions on this range from "unacceptable" to "eh, no big deal", and people make points about how both the actor and subject are both multiracial (although they aren't perceived that way), but Armisen would probably be forgiven a lot if melted into the role.

Just as long as they don't pull back in Fred Armisen's Obama and whoever thought it would be a good idea to put him in kinda-sorta blackface.

Since you asked, I feel like sharing a widely-held opinion about a political figure isn't really germane to a discussion of why you're pretty self-righteous about sugar. I guess I also feel like if I wanted to listen to someone insult the character of literally everyone who eats differently than them, I'd hang around…

Plus, it's done wonders for the way you interact with people.

I feel like a phone call from Dave Grohl saying "Dude. Give her back her dad's guitar." could probably resolve this.

At the time using that guitar was seen as kind of a middle finger to MTV's then-relevant Unplugged series, like "yeah, I'll play an acoustic guitar… with a magnetic pickup! And a distortion pedal! Take that!"

Yeah, this article seems to suggest that ending gender equality is work that rests solely on women, and approaches any men who participate in that work with skepticism. Some dudes deserve skepticism (what's up, Hugo Schwyzer) and I'm not saying that it's appropriate to allow men in every space, or in leadership…

Just until Patrick Carney also joins, at which point he might switch to raging about it.

This is what drives me crazy. I was going to make a "you better call up Tyrone; you know, Tyrone the forensic biologist" joke, but damn. Just damn.

Subject-appropriate, though.

Can't we both be right? I thought Hetfield was the primary person undermining Newstead's side project, which was the ultimate reason that Newstead left the band.

Well, as far as I know, Flea didn't get totally abused by James Hetfield's ego, so I guess he isn't Jason Newstead.

"but I'm no Robert Trujillo" It's always nice when super-talented people are humble about it.

I can't figure out what's going on with Polish fashion. One guy looks like a barista who currently works in San Francisco but can no longer afford to live there, and the other looks like Brian Austen Green in his not-quite-Vanilla-Ice 90210 days.

Sounds like you enjoy making incorrect assumptions, and just kind of running with them. That wasn't what I meant at all—more like how when someone enjoys a particular privilege, it's their responsibility to call out other people who are abusing it.

I'm assuming Seann William Scott is free.
