This is exactly what I thought of.  “Can we please call it a ‘tallywhacker’?”

appear to be relatively the run-of-the-mill “free speech” schlock

Way off topic, but I never really understood the whole supercar concept: an ungodly amount of money for power you will never get to use in an incredibly uncomfortable car that is all but impossible to drive day to day or for any real distance....

They stuck strongly to that story knowing that it was a very big lie.

“Now, Donnie, if you’re good at the doctor’s and take your shots like a big boy, maybe, just maybe, we can get ice cream on the way home.”

Splinter has given up any pretense of doing any editing.

I bet there’s one in German.

Rudy Giuliani is a 75 year-old teenage girl posting “I’m so done with this!!!!!” on Facebook and responding “I don’t want to talk about it!” when someone asks him “what’s wrong?”.

Screw that.  Just tell me what you mean and explain why you think it’s bad/good.  Using the word at all is just inviting an argument over what it *really* means....

Yeah, I’ve just flat out given up. If they can’t be bothered to make their writing understandable, I see no reason to make the effort to understand it.

I’m still trying to figure out how you justify charging $31,000 for a dining set, let alone how you “mistakenly” order one that expensive. I mean, it’s not like she mistyped the model number out of an IKEA catalog.

Splinter isn’t even pretending they aren’t using readers as editors anymore.

because she thinks the Constitution is just a giant Second Amendment.

Splinter isn’t even trying to hide the fact they are using readers as editors now.

It’s gotten to the point that as soon as someone says, “socialism” I tune right the fuck out because it means they have no fucking clue what they’re talking about.

Briscoe Cain (Rosco P. Coltrane), a self-proclaimed conservative Republican (old white guy) who supports limited government (anarcho-capitalist), less regulation (climate change denier), increased transparency (for others, but not him), the value of life (forced birther), and traditional family values (bigotry).

Because there are more of them. They are the rule, now, not the exception. It isn’t rocket surgery.

Lawrence of Arabia is almost 4 hours long and came out in 1962. No one’s saying it never happened until recently.

I feel like like Titanic, if not the actual start, was the defining moment when every director had to have a 3 hour epic drama. You could cut all the bullshit with old Rose out of that movie and it still would have been too long.
