Not if everything is graded on a curve!  grumble, grumble, law school, grumble grumble arbitrary distinctions, grumble grumble.

Yeah, if only big Pharma had a role to play here…….hmmm, maybe comedians should start making drugs instead of just taking them!

You mean, "The American Dream" is rotten to the core and lived out
on borrowed time?  Huh. Gotta re-read Gatsby.  I thought the whole thing
was an elaborate Mint Julep recipe.

It's a bit too familiar to be a true Deerhunter album.  I'm feeling a bit too much CBGBs-era  NY 70s punk scene to get TOO excited about the first 3-4 tracks (even though I really enjoy them), but it settles in nicely into "oh, this is a Deerhunter record" half way through.  I'm sure I'll be listening to this for a…

Deny my credit application, will you?  I'll show you all!

NONE OF YOU! I'll cut you!

Was I late to this party, or what?

Band names are meaningless.  What the fuck did "The Beatles" have to do with anything? A "clever" pun? An insect?  The Turtles?  The Donkeys?  Grizzly Bear (love the band, but the name evokes a totally different type of music- unless the whole thing was some gay-community in-joke- which is possible).

I think the name was a slight nod to the total arbitrariness of band names in general.  Problem is, whenever anyone talks about this band, the first think that comes up is their name.  It irrationally infuriates some people.

@avclub-ce11a6d53c3c8c10c196e2114a8d5149:disqus too late, already hit Command+2 and unofficially Trademarked it. It's bound to hold up in some court of law somewhere.

@avclub-327af0f71f7acdfd882774225f04775f:disqus I'm not sure if you disagree with me at all, if you really read and think about what I wrote.

I think the point is that Robb would be a great King once on the throne but he doesn't have the single-minded tunnel-vision needed to get him there. He's too emotional, too empathetic and too concerned with justice and right and wrong.  He wants to live up to the standard set by his father more than he wants to win.

Game of Thrones is on the reverse of the slippery slope Republicans concern themselves with:

The Wildlings, The White Walkers, The Lannisters, The Starks, The Baratheons, 3 Dragons and and Army of Slaves will all run at each-other in the field of battle only to be arrested by 70s-era British policemen.

Oh, come on, Leonard Pierce did something I did K-12, Fr.-Sr. year (and through most of Law School): Pretend to read something he didn't read at all.

@avclub-58238e9ae2dd305d79c2ebc8c1883422:disqus Yeah, these people probably saw what it was like when two people actually loved each other, setting them up for a life-time of healthy or semi-healthy long-terms relationships!  HA!

I grew up in Bergen County.  Beautiful place to raise a family.  Now, the rest of the state….

And just like Switzerland, they secretly sided with the Nazis anyway. Causing the Fins and Norwegians to hate them to this day.

Agree with me or not, but I think we can all agree I totally called this:
