The dearth of pointless “lol” Fallon clips that Jezebel (and until recently, gawker) have been posting on the reg for several years now?

So then, everyone is cool with Fallon again? Just checking.

Please elaborate. Rotten weird? Too much beauty product weird? Taco weird? I’ll bet it’s not taco weird.

I agree. It is impossible to rid the world of danger. I think of these things in the same way I think of the advice to be a “defensive driver”. If you’re on a highway with a nutty erratic car, it’s true that their behavior has no reflection on your driving skills. But it doesn’t mean it’s not a risk to drive right…

Being the target of a crime is never deserved, but it’s also totally valid to acknowledge when victims make conscious choices that may lower their own security.

Oh I know they have no lack of inspiration. More like, it would be a b*tch to have to rewrite a Saturday show after a scandal on Friday evening - especially considering they usually have dress rehearsals on Wednesdays.

Good lord, I feel sorry for the snl writers this week. You know they had to spend the last 24 hours rewriting a whole show.

Please point out where this article suggests it is in any way sarcastic.

....because they didn’t go out of their way to renounce a candidate they never went out of their way to endorse? Look, I’m pro Hillary and about as liberal-feminist a woman you’ll find, but I don’t hold tic tacs in contempt here. They are not an elected official. They are a brand that happened to be implicated…

“Senator john McCain”

How are they playing the neutral game? They denounced what was said.

Meh. Is there a reason why a civilian business is obligated to denounce trump? They are a private candy company, not a senate majority leader. their implication in this could literally not have been less voluntary or relevant. They stand against what happened and they said so. Don’t see what more we should expect.

Psh, but fighting opioid addiction would require the government to control opioid pharmaceuticals. And placing a limit on privatized pharmaceutical profit is just plain unamerican!

60k feels like an odd amount of money too. Like, that seams unreasonably low to fund a helicopter operation? And yet it still manages to sound like a total waste, especially considering if you gave, say, a school lunch program 60k more per year you could feed a lot of kids and make an actual difference?

Yes. TBH it almost feels like SNL is diversity-trolling us at this point. At first, their pattern of hiring bland white guys just felt like ignorance. But at this point, they’ve thrown away so many opportunites to fix the issue that I’m beginning to believe they’re screwing with us. I mean, bad jokes would be in the…

Also: I understand the value of being seen as a “modern Islamic country”, but that’s not much credit there if you ask me. Turkey is “modern” because it secularized its government. Many countries have done the same, and rarely with great ease. Just because they happened to secularize from a religion currently…

It’s ironic because even if our founding fathers didn’t commit genocide, they still managed to enslave an entire racial minority for almost a century. Screw revisionist history, man. But to make it an insult to talk about is truly next level. I guess it’s good that presumably neither you nor I plan to support Turkish…

Gross. And thanks for the info, I didn’t know a lot of that. The only question I have is, what has been the movement to try to get reparations? And is turkey resistant to recognize it in part because they don’t want to shoulder that? Because bad as it is, that is the only sensical reason I can muster for why someone…

I’m Jewish and lost family members in the holocaust. I’m not sure people grasp how severely these genocides decimated the Jewish and Armenian populations. I’m not Armenian so I can’t speak to your situation, but extinction is a real concern among Jewish people. There is also a fear it will happen again, something…

Dude I think about the armisen thing too. Granted, he has South American and Japanese heritage so I guess he is not Anglo, but still reads as white and is definitely not black. I think he got away with it because he was talented. But yeah, objectively we should all accept that SNL once had a production meeting where…
