It really makes me feel like a dick, finding out how nice and funny Leno is after hating him on The Tonight Show for so long.

Yeah it's such a severe problem that Twilight sold a zillion novels and box office admits and Harry Potter World at Universal Studios is a humongous success.

It's sounding more like you didn't even understand MT313. His point was that the AV Club, and a lot of progressives in entertainment journalism, do not apply their criticism evenly — if this had been a celebrity in just about any other field of entertainment, these comments would have been framed much differently. …

Nah, fuck that shit. People who talk like you are all about "diversity of opinion" and amendment rights (despite no one stapling Chappelle's mouth shut) until one of your own little pet issues gets targeted. Furthermore, I'll give a damn about your criticism about a "working to achieve a consensus" when I see *any*…

hey, you could take me, beefy ~<3

Yeah, whatever, save it. I'm talking to a dude who thinks this shit is just "political sport" and otherwise has zero invested in it, as usual with any tool who talks in "echo chamber", "let both sides have their say" terms. Let's see how masturbatory you are about "the discourse" when you get targeted by one of…

Oh, "serendipitous", huh. I must have been mistaken — I thought the content of that old podcast episode had been distributed and disseminated via the exact same channels, the exact methods and the exact same tone as all of these horrible, biased, echo-chamber articles you're clutching your pearls over. Turns out it…

Considering he has been effectively "taken down", apparently not?

Have Milo-related articles by the AV Club been anything but take-downs?

aren't these the shows that the A.V. Club's readership's parents watch

Patton Oswalt, who produced that awards show, makes it sound like he wasn't (forgive the music): https://www.youtube.com/wat…

Hahahah, hey Close-watcher, you wanna stump for Genji's analogy here, too? This seem like one worth defending?

An angry minority that has taken complete control of its party? An angry minority that has made Paul Ryan and Chris Christie both kneel and kiss the ring as they're made fun of by the person wearing it?

I repeated his point back to him. What did I fail to understand?

The surface complaint against the analogy, that it invites the comparison and, if you're talking to someone who believes the comparison to begin with, advances it, is enough to write it off as a bad analogy made by someone who isn't very good at communicating. As far as its actual mechanical value as an analogy, it…

The only person who has been crowing about their "tolerance" and "open-mindedness" is you as you stump for these right-wing politicians.

"Shit-kicker" is a general derogatory term for conservatives of southern descent, don't read too much into it beyond that.

You're making the claim of a dying down, a distancing from "culture wars" by the right-wing. I'm pointing out that the leading right-wing candidate is decidedly running purely on a culture wars-based campaign. You're telling me this is no reflection of the political landscape?

"Personal experience"? These are politicians with traceable voting records and histories of attending functions where the lead line of dialogue is "these degenerates are destroying the country." They pay money to organizations that make your grandmother think that, as a homosexual, you wanna touch kids. If your…

Actually, the correct answer to "how popular is the leading right-wing candidate" is: "popular enough to be the leading right-wing candidate."
