Yes God forbid we have a nuanced adult answer.

Simon and Pelecanos keep saying it’s about the women, too, in the episode’s behind-the-episode featurette and post-finale interviews. Tbh leaves a sour taste in my mouth given that the show concluded with an extended sequence devoted to telling us in no uncertain terms that this was really Vince/Franco’s story all…

Totally agree. I didn’t dislike Vince but I was more emotionally invested in Eileen’s story and I thought of her as more of the star of the show then Vince.

He didn't have a dead kid song

That was the most disappointing part of the finale, for me. They had done a good job of having consequences to actions (Mel’s becoming addicted to crack, Andre dying) that having Franklin end up miraculously okay was so... weak. 

This may be admitting how dumb I am, but that x7 thing is not an argument I ever thought to make.

You went in lol I will agree with his mom. I’m sick of her naivety..she was willing to assist her old boss with his dirt and smoke a joint from time to time but I guess when it’s your son, how the tides change. I felt like we came full circle with this finale since when we met Franklin in season 1 he had so much…

His small role in Hot Rod is even better when you learn he based the character on a friend, and the tripping/welding accident/eye injury happened almost beat for beat in real life. The best part is that when his friend saw the movie, when that scene happened his friend was like, “that’s weird man, the same thing…

The Willie Nelson song is “Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground”.  

It’s referred to as “The Duck,” and it’s horseshit. 

I live in Marcy’s 9th district. I literally had to take a magnifying glass to see if I was still in her district after the map was redrawn. I was, as the line is one city block to the south of me. I live within the City of Toledo. Back in the 90's, Marcy represented all of Toledo and Lucas County, as well as parts of…

Ohio voters passed the nonpartisan redistricting process for the 2022 elections. Ohio will probably lose a seat, and Republicans hold 12 of 16 right now. The net effect is that in 2022 you will see a bunch of GOP members forced to retire, campaign in much less friendly districts, or challenge other members in…

But hopefully the redistricting methods are about to change. I was living in Cincinnati up to August of this year, and signed a petition to get the Fair Districts plan on the ballot. They eventually decided to go along with and support the changes the Ohio House (or Senate?) suggested earlier in the year.

Just when you thought Jimmy and Kim would end with a whimper . . .

I dunno, the way Gomez stayed down suggests two guys, one cup.

I think there probably always will be a defensible argument on behalf of Jordan as the GOAT. His unblemished Finals record, the fact that LeBron almost certainly will finish shy of his six titles, the scoring average and scoring titles, just how totally he dominated the league and sports and pop culture during his…

In my opinion, Melo is the most overrated player in the history of the league. I had high hopes that he could be “Olympic Melo” and bring something for that team, but he didn’t. Melo is butt now.

Agreed, and he probably has like six other minor injuries he’s hiding from the media.

Well, as someone who paid for the privilege of seeing Phantom Thread, I can say that when I got to the “twist”, I literally threw my hands up in the air and said, “That’s it? THAT is what this movie is about???”.

Groups of guys dancing with each other are the best. If they are having fun without even needing a female it shows me they are fun. So then I go dance with them. I did this at in a club in Poland. Every guy that night had been creeping or trying to grab me, and then I found this awesome group of guys and danced with…
