Apart from the shallowness, the excuse making bothers me. They always assume they are single because of looks or economic status. Plenty of homely or poor folks are in relationships.

Nice guys don’t do emotional labour. They are people who think women are objects getting annoyed that they can’t get a girlfriend by following an algorithm like list of activities that works on every woman. I always remember this hilarious post on Reddit (hilarious is a word which here means cluelessly misogynist)…
Good point, I can’t even write half of the intensely strong negative feeling my current workplace inspires in me.
People like Michael Caine and Gary Oldman slagged projects off though and people loved them. I’ve not read every word Bill Murray has spoken but he seems like sombody who would criticise a crap paycheck-y type project.
Well I find a vision of life where women are expected to drag their reluctant male partners kicking and screaming into adulthood depressing ;-) Sounds like a ton of work.
I hate rom coms because it seems to me all of them tell me that as a woman, I’m incomplete in some way until I’ve found a man. Give me The Matrix any day.
I loved Devil Wears Prada for the slight exploration of early 20s issues.
“That she kept trying for the romantic roles seems to be the issue to me, from an acting standpoint (if we’re ignoring the sexism thing).”
“Combined with the whole ‘I didn’t submit myself for an Emmy because I wasn’t given good enough material’ comment, she didn’t just seem to be trying to leave Grey’s Anatomy, but actively dismissing it and Shonda Rhimes.”
I would guess they are probably missing former co-workers and worrying about their future jobs since as far as I know, no-one has stepped forward to buy and save this old place.
I quite liked what they did with Kyle in the original show. Clearly Roswell wasn’t a good show but it was an interesting move to make Kyle a bit more nuanced than the “jock bully” he could have been. I liked his friendship with Isabel.
I liked original Roswell as well. I loved her character and wanted her to kill Max when he told her he would stop her going away to university. Gross, Max. Also Liz had questionable taste in men.
I liked Heigl since Roswell (she was one of the stronger actors on the show) and she always felt like a woman who got punished for having strong opinions and voicing them, in a way men sometimes don’t. If a cool male cult hero slagged off one of his “for the paycheck” blockbusters a lot of people would see him as…
My favourite part of the Mooch’s story was the way TV news shows quoted his remarks made them somehow sound more obscene than what he actually said “I’m not trying to [blank] my own [blank]”
They have to do something until Out of Ideas 6 is ready to be released....
I can only imagine how provoking this must have been to make you break your streak of C minuses, A.A. Dowd.
Maybe he was just killing time until John Wick 27?
Kinja is bad enough on its own but it becomes 8 times worse when you realise there is apparently no level of misogyny, racism or even death threats that will move whoever moderates this stuff (if anyone) to delete really egregiously bad stuff.
Love Dan’s compassionate and helpful answers this week especially to 2 and 3. And 3 is really scary, people who won’t take no for an answer and are insistent that they know what someone is feeling better than the other person whose emotions it is, scare me.
It’s a Netflix show here (UK) but they upload a new episode each Friday after it airs in the US and the last one will be airing before my free month ends.....
