I love your posts so much. Never change.
Yes, I was being entirely serious, and ABSOLUTELY not making a joke at McDonald's expense about where they get the gall to fire someone over this when they market unhealthy, disgusting shit food to children.
What she did was tantamount to child abuse, and I completely understand why McDonald's fired her.
That finale never happened
Even in the last episode there was a joke Chandler made about how because of rent control the apartment was a 'fricken steal'
Actually, as lame as it sounds, Wizards on Disney Channel with Selena Gomez did a pretty good job with this. Selena's character didn't speak Spanish, but she was supposed to be half-Latina. Her mom did some stereotypical stuff as far as I recall, but for the most part, the show was about Selena being a witch or…
As a South Asian woman, I have mixed feelings about Mindy. It's great that she's out there but well, representation for the sake of itself seems a bit pointless. I am troubled by the fact that the show is built around her "Indian" appearance but "American" behavior. She is annoying, unrealistic, self-centered—an…
I thought the invisible Latinos are the white and black ones playing white and black characters— Gina Torres, Alexis Bledel, Cameron Diaz, etc. and sometimes meztizo ones playing other ethnicities.
Basically THIS:
Ross? Mature? Have you forgotten about his competitive relationship with Monica and his reaction to her getting the Porsche even though she was always the neglected one and their dad wanted to make up for it? "What about me?! I'm a medical marvel!" Have you forgotten about his fights with her and how he blamed…
that's why people look at me when like i'm psychotic when i say that Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle was one of the fundamentally biggest game changers for people of color in terms of the way we see Asian people in film, and if we could have a film that did something that broke stereotypes of Latinos in that same…
Emma Gellar wasn't invisible, though. She did affect her parents' and aunts' and uncles' lives. Now her half-brother Ben disappeared in the last 2 or 3 seasons, but he had an effect on all three parents' lives and was integral to several episodes.
Agreed. Ross was super whiny, but at least he was gainfully employed and generally self-sufficient. Now Joey, on the other hand, was a huge manchild for letting Chandler support him financially throughout the entire series. I never understood how it was decided early on that Rachel needed to grow up and get a real job…
"When life gives you lemonade, make lemons. Life'll be all like, 'whaaa —t?!?"
Well, it's not a character archetype, but I hate in sitcoms how some characters end up having a relationship with all the other opposite sex single characters, for example Rachel with both Ross and Joey or Robin with both Ted and Barney. I know it's for drama (and to not pay extra actors) but can't anybody just have…
This mostly bums me out because I can't get away with acting like her. Tried it as a kid and *bam*, right to the counselor's office.
The attractive guy who sleeps with 9 billion women without a single worry about an STD or getting a girl pregnant (see Barney in HIMYM and Joey in Friends especially).

Goddamn! I bet you could write movie scripts in your sleep. Gimme something with Zac Efron and Katherine Heigl on my desk in the morning, k?
