I like how they reiterated what this extremely brief, straightforward tweet said directly under it, in case we somehow missed it. Now that’s good reporting!

This is the new AV Club now, baby!
This is a 2-day old tweet, did that really warrant another story about this?
...and not a word about the great comeback by the Indians. Nor the fact that they lost their best power guy (not their best player; that’s Jose Ramirez), nor the fact that the Tribe’s bullpen saved the day once again, nor the fact that they seem to be a likable, clutch bunch of guys on the team that seems to be…
And you’re bringing this up now because?
While this article is generally incoherent, I would like to point out that Tales From The Crypt: Bordello Of Blood has a bitchin’ theme song, recorded by Anthrax.
That’s gotta be one of the most muddled ledes I’ve ever read
Wait... what? Who fed the actual article through Ukrainian Google Translate and then back again?
This was very weird and creepy. For all the lefts pater about negative use of “isms” and body shaming this diatribe played right into the worst of the genre. The meanness and projection of an individual’s looks that are somehow related to their world view is beyond stupid.

Mental illness.
Do you know what else ignores the point of gun control?
I’ve been commenting on the avclub for about 5 or 6 years years and didn’t get ungreyed because avclub’s disqus to Kinja converter was useless, at least the last time I tried.
