It's such a non-movie it's kind of amazing.

Not just avoid demonization (you're 100% right on that) but showing we have dimension with our opinions and experiences, and that everything can't be fit into a neat little bubble. One of my best friends is a transwoman but she absolutely loves guns, remembers her time in military school fondly, and voted for Gary

And they made their point in that same episode by showing Bush shitting on the American flag, saying "We can do THAT, but we can't show Mohammed just standing there. Why is that?"

I believe you're thinking of Patton Oswalt in his latest special, and it's something I agree with. Patton's defense of RuPaul saying "tranny" was amazing. I'm not gonna quote it, but I think we can all agree that it'd be super ignorant to not pretend that, for whatever flaws, RuPaul has done a ton for the gay

A consistent problem with liberalism (and this is across the board, not just present day America) is constant in-fighting, lack of focus, and obsession with "purity" of your views. Conservatives, by contrast, are all on the same page even if it's about something awful (the Healthcare vote today showed that). There's

It's such a small moment but remember when Jimmy and Timmy join the Crips? I love this exchange:

Timmy arguably has a lot of dimension despite only being able to say his name. He's been the hero, the comic relief, and even the villain depending on the episode.

A lot of people compare Cartman to Archie Bunker, and I think that's more apt than people realize.

Boils down to this: Moffat decided to write a superhero story. Okay, fine. Sounds fun.

You didn't miss much. The last Christmas special was really weak. "The Pilot" was a much better intro to the new Twelfth Doctor paradigm.

I love it when Matt Groening introduces himself as "Creator of Milhouse."

I don't want Chad Kroeger dead. I just want him to leave and never hear of him again.

As a music fan, he has a reputation for being unprofessional and for giving unnecessary, vitrolic, personal attacks on artists that have nothing to do with their music. He refuses to review anything objectively and only judges it based on his personal interests. There's a running gag "Unless you're Wilco, Jim

I'm torn between my disgust with R. Kelly and my hatred for Jim DeRogatis. For a Chicago music fan, this is truly being caught between a rock and a hard place.

Depends on the strain. Some you can down a whole joint and feel slightly itchy. Others? Do NOT do more than a bowl. Little dab'll do ya.

And whoever is cast the fandom will moan on social media about it and say they're not as good as David Tennant, then suddenly get really melancholy and sad when they eventually leave the show.

If I had to guess, Cersei will probably live until the end of the season. But she definitely won't be around for the final season, since they have to make that all about fighting the White Walkers. The question is, since she's made so many enemies, who gets the honor of offing her.

His catchphrase will be "UMMMMMM…"

Given everything else he's done, I'm amazed it took so long to get to tax fraud. That's always the cherry on top when a musician like this goes off the rails.
