So, you do believe women have it worse than men, does that not mean you believe in the premise of the patriarchy? Patriarchy is just the name for the net power imbalance that arises from individual beliefs, prejudices, actions etc that affect women negatively.

i think it has to do with the concept of anthropomorphic animals having hair in general. do they have two layers of hair on their head, shorter fur and longer hair? its dumb

Yeah, fuck Paul Rust for writing a part for an Gillian Jacobs, he has a responsibility to hire an "ugly" actress rather than one he thinks would fit the part. Or better yet Gillian Jacobs should have to act in ugly-face at all times so we know shes /really/ getting the parts for her talent and not her looks, which, i

Where did you get this from?

ohmygod THANK YOU. I used to think comedians were exaggerating when they would whine about how AVC commenters hated everything, but I'm starting to think they are right on the money.

Yeah, clearly colbert is doing it for the money *eyeroll* you people are insufferable.

Settle down, Adam.

Think you pulled something reaching for that pun

That part didn't add up to me either - why is she still unpacking suitcases months after they'd moved to abq? Also why did Mike drive to her house and watch her leave for work and exchange a knowing look right before the Philly cops show up at his house?

Can someone explain the timeline of Mike's story, cuz it didn't make sense to me. So he killed the two cops three months ago, then went to abq the next day to meet with Stacey. What happened three months later that caused Stacey to call the cops on Mike? How could she not find out about Hoffman and Fensky's deaths

If they didn't intend for it to be a universal story, then why did they give it a broad title like Friends? MY friends aren't like that!!

"Things are worse in other parts of the world, therefore problems in this part of the world aren't worth fixing." - Wrong, simple-minded people throughout history.

I'd imagine threats, implicit or explicit, were involved.

I think Ben Gibbard was fully aware of the muddled sports metaphor, I think I remember reading something about him being a big hockey fan, but the song called for a two syllable word and "quarter" just fit. And the narrator blocking the door is definitely supposed to give off creepy/desperate vibes, it's not supposed

I guess maybe it's just become increasingly more jarring to keep switching between self-aware standup Louis, decent father Louie, and complete manchild oblivious relationship Louie. Maybe I'm putting too much stake in the idea that getting married and divorced and having kids has to teach you something about love, or

He's been infatuated with her for years. If he really loved her, he wouldn't be trying to force her into this romantic lovey-dovey mold he wants her to fit in that is obviously not her. If he really loved her, he would treat her with respect and not pressure her into kissing him/having sex with him/telling him she

This arc felt too much like a gender-swapped, aged-up version of Girls to me. Like, Louis was acting out issues typically had by naive people in their 20s, and it didn't really make sense to me how his character was still so incredibly naive despite being in his 40s and having been in love and married with kids and

I think it was more a side effect of his parents divorce, and moreso the way his father handled the divorce, than an active coping sort of thing. His father basically ditched him and only came back into Louie's life sporadically; he had no male role model during the time which he was transitioning from a boy to a man.

I dunno, it seemed to me like Louie had a perfect opportunity to give his daughter advice through telling her his own story. Maybe she wouldn't' have listened, but I was mad at him for not even trying. Smoking weed at age 12 seems like a pretty bad idea and Lily seems pretty rational, I feel like he could've at least

Damn. Louis confessing through email 20+ years after the fact makes a lot more sense than the neat and tidy way it happened in the show.
