Heh. “Trauma.”

100% Nailed It

This just in: non-celebrity woman fails to change celebrity man after years of having all the information in front of her, is upset now.

Absolutely nailed it. I was going to come in here and make some similar points but I don’t think I can do it as astutely as you did.

Not really, no.

Jonah Hill made certain demands in the relationship. Those demands were bad: super unreasonable, petty, controlling, and born of deep insecurity. You could even argue they were misogynistic or narcissistic; that’s all fine. And for his own sake, if nothing else, Hill needs to get over whatever is making him this way.

The phrase “emotional abuse” always raises an alarm for me. Not that it doesn’t exist, but the range of different things that could be described by different people as “emotionally abusive” more or less guarantees that it will serve as a catch-all term for a lot of things that most people would not consider to be that.

They’re not compatible. He moved on. Why drag this up? She’s free of him and his emotional “abuse.”

“He’s asking her to change who she is so he doesn’t feel insecure.”

What happened to just breaking up with assholes? Is there really a reason this needed to be shared with the world? Yes it sounds like he was a dick! But your response could have been “yes, you’re right, you’re not the right partner for me, goodbye.”

Yeah, they’re really dumb boundaries. I can see why she didn’t agree to them. I wouldn’t have agreed to them either, and I’m neither or a model nor a surfer.

Maybe there’s something else I’m missing here, but I don’t think that clearly establishing boundaries and expressing your wishes and desires counts as being emotionally abusive, even if those boundaries and wishes aren’t something the other person agrees with, or even something most people would agree with. Almost…

going to agree that this is part of what the twitter discourse has poisoned us to write as discourse.

Out of character, FWIW

Sure, just like it’s very possible these guys are arguing with me because they are mad that they old racist tweets and solicitations of minors will come to light.

THE AV CLUB! (?)

so glad we’re spending three days of our lives canceling somebody who peaked 4 years ago while our world is on fucking fire

Regardless, the decision to perform the song wearing dark face paint was ill-advised,

Uhhh...pretty sure it’s not easy being green, dude. 

Watch the video.  It’s clearly green paint. Last I checked, Kermitface wasn’t a thing.
