those shows were superior but instead of enshrining them maybe we should look at what made them trope-y. What made them cliches. Herc? All the supervillain stuff in BB? Some of that was amazing and some of it...we just liked (dingdingdingding). We acted like all of those things were new. We gave out a ton of passes. Ho…

btw, I replied to this one just so you can teach me more things, cuz that is your thing right, you teach everybody so much, so I’ve turned off notifications on this one, you can just teach away

Thanks.  Probably the duality between being a decent human being, and needing to anonymously comment on the internet to be less of a decent human being.

I care less about your opinion at the end of your comment than I did at the beginning. And the one before that. Like that other guy I mentioned, you for some reason think I should take moral lessons from you. I don’t see the basis for doing that. We’ve also argued before when we weren’t mostly talking about…

Scott...I looked up The Gerbils: Scott Spillane!  Which were also inspired by ska horns.  and so on.  Yeah, I’m not complaining about any of it.  (I might have a tiny complaint that she described the breakdown at the end as “metal” and while I loved it, it was not metal, and I find it so charming that she thought it…

So on one side: I am fine with any non-legal consequences Elgort faces, I don’t think that’s a witch-hunt.

You’re not a bunch of other commenters, there’s recognitions (who counts as negative two people) and like two other people: you’re exaggerating and you know you are. If you want to keep talking go find it, your burden is to make me interested in talking to you, I’m not currently. I have an obligation to post RAINN…

all true, lower your expectations. Breaking Bad, the episode where Jesse and Walt are trapped in the trailer. He calls Hank’s cellphone and says Marie was in a car accident. Season 2 of The Wire: Ziggy. Those were two of the best shows on television. Those mistakes were a long time ago. Premium TV today is much more…

Does it make you feel smart to lie about what can clearly be read above? I’m only basing what I said on her tweets wherein she repeatedly makes accusations of sexual assault that do not fall within the definition of sexual assault.

Nope, burden’s on you as the challenger, find me cases supporting your interpretation or don’t comment again.

I’m just hearing bernie bros saying “whether we can enact any of these things is beside the point”

Are you just repeating back to me that I said this was based on the text of her tweets, because it has to be because there is no other basis for it to be on and I clearly stated that? “You’re also assuming that she withdraw consent with words as well, which is a pretty big assumption.” I’m guessing you are saying I…

No, it isn’t. I’m not trolling you. That is a handbook from an NGO that was updated in March 2020 and uses as points of reference the definition of consent from other states. The one you quoted to me as the legal definition in NYS is the legal definition in California (and Colorado). I responded to that one anyway,…

Burden is on you to find me a case where New York State upheld a rape charge where withdrawal of consent was expressed through a passive act. But you won’t be able to, because, from the handbook on Enough is Enough: “Except for circumstances in which the law deems a victim incapable of consent, in order to constitute…

Again, I am not happy to have to tell you this, but the burden is on the person withdrawing the consent to communicate it unequivocally through words or actions. Crying is not telling somebody else to do something. His response to her crying was vile and unconscionable, but indicated that he did not believe it to have…

I’ll tell you exactly why I’m defending him: I’m not. I’m not defending him. I’m telling you her accusations do not fit the legal definition of sexual assault. I was predicting I would hear a lot of “the legal definitions of rape, sexual assault, and statutory rape do not matter.”

My assessment was neutral, I am not supposing other than what she said. I think you are dismissing things from her tweets (you should go to the link and read her exact words). She says “sobbing” and articulates that he said that (terrible) thing he said in response to her sobbing, so he was aware that she was sobbing…

Nothing like that has happened, it’s all in your head. I think you are pretty sick to say that by properly defining what she is accusing him of I am minimizing her assault. I think that by ignoring the actual definitions of these charges, using the terms without any understanding of them, being contemptuous of even…

Episode II Prequel:

Yes you simpering moron, there is. There is the legal definition of sexual assault, you incompetent swine. “imaginary legal stature”? Do you mean the actual legal statute, you hyena who chews its way in through a corpse’s anus?
