He’s one of the only two serial killers I’ve ever heard of that didn’t come from horribly abusive backgrounds. That’s the only exceptional thing about him to me.

Yes! I’m not the slightest bit interested. I saw that nut job in the 1980's and he us not interesting. His con man attitude is not “charming” and his unibrow us not “attractive.” I will not be watching. If they ever do something completely about the victims and their families, I would be interesred.

He wasn’t attractive at all! Not that being attractive excuses his behavior, but how are all these women finding him charming and attractive?

Right. I also never said “hot,” I said “attractive.” He was conventionally attractive by 70s standards and by most American standards - hence why Zac Efron is playing him and looking the part.

I had to look him up on wikipedia to remind myself of the sick, violent, absolutely horrifying things he did because they kinda sped through it the last fifteen minutes of the last episode. Really? How about all the families that never recovered their child’s body?

What is more, Netflix’s whole social media campaign of ‘Hey you horndogs, stop lusting after Ted Bundy! He is gross! (See him now on Netflix)‘ is such fucking transparently crass seeding of a shitty idea that I wish Netflix were a person so I could kick him in the balls.

I agree with your take. I didn’t find the documentary boring at all, it was a pretty fascinating expose of a completely narcissistic sociopath. Watching him trying to run his defense at his trial and seeing all his lawyers just throw their hands up at him was something else.

“I honestly thought I might be murdered so crazy was the killer stuff back then.”

“Plenty of women found him unsettling, and the ones who attended his trial still often saw him a monster”

I have watched 3.5 episodes out of the total 4 so far and I had to stop at the part right before they (I assume) show him proposing to Carol Anne Boone. I just couldn’t handle it— the squicky-ness and horror of it. I also am frustrated with myself for watching this because it adds nothing of value to the conversation…

Found the Gaga fan

So you use an article about women being dehumanized to ignore the victims of murder and push your own agenda? Fuck you.

I didn’t think Lady Gaga and the people promoting her could sink any lower, but here we are. Using her testimony in a fucking rape trial, of her FRIEND, as a way to increase her chances of winning some Oscars. Fuck her and fuck you too, any one of you who help this sorry excuse for a friend exploit Keshas pain for her…

True THAT. The only thing i gained from this was noting how different the man looked from mugshot to mugshot. 

When I was watching it, I actually came away feeling like it was obvious that Bundy THOUGHT he was the smartest person alive, but he kept fucking up. His first escape, he goes on and on about how brilliant he was to evade capture for so long, but he basically hid in the woods for a week until he got too hungry, and…

Also, just because people tell you that you’ve helped them doesn’t mean you really have, in the long run. Many if not all are surely in denial. A lot of those people may have a similar story to his own to tell in five years, or ten: realizing their marriages to a person of the opposite sex are untenable and coming out…

Yup, he’s having a hard time accepting that his life’s work to date sums up to torturing a lot of gay and bi people and nothing more.

“I know my work helped many, many people because they’ve told me so,”

Yep. The Splinter position is that if you want something badly enough, Congressional majorities don’t matter.

It’s because most of the writers were still in high school the last time she was Speaker. The only thing they know is that the Democrats lost the house in 2010 and they blame her because she didn’t pass single payer, or put up other bills that would have failed to pass the house. She’s one of the main reasons we still…
