Tim-o-tay

I also found this ironic and a bit....odd? I’ve pretty much stopped commenting but continue to lurk. It’s exhausting to see him as the top comment on every. single. post. Jezebel ain’t what it used to be.

I’m sure your comment will be dismissed, but I’m certain he’s one of the people OP is referring to. It’s exhausting.

I know EXACTLY who you are referring to and he’s the worst. Truly.

It would’ve been entirely disingenuous for him to make a complete 180 in the film and “learn” something from what happened to him. Someone who has spent their entire existence as a violent, racist, homophobic P.O.S. is going to need a lot more than a few days for any kind of real turnaround. Hell, it might take…

Agreed. There was no redemption for any character. All of this criticism doesn’t really resonate with me.

But I am unsure how the movie was supposed to deal with his racism/homophobia. Wouldn’t it have been a bit disingenuous for him to be “woke” after being a racist/homophobe for 35+ years of his life? I think the film was trying to show that there *might* be hope for him, but in no way could that kind of change occur in…

In France, he’s Italiano!

Yeah, I agree with you. I’ve been holding back quiet a bit because my boyfriend is french and he, his family, and his friends are nothing like what anyone has described.

Which is pretty shocking in it’s own right that anyone would willingly say that about themselves considering Pepsi tastes like absolute garbage.

Actually LOLing over this.

Oh, I agree. I just remember wondering how her and her people weren’t able to pick up on his fraud.

Don’t forget James Frey!

It’s REALLY good! When you order it they usually bring the entire pot out to your table and slop it directly onto your plate.

Have you ever had aligot? If not, you should try it! I think it would satisfy your craving.

I agree. My favorite thing in the winter is a nice Raclette. It’s so nice that everyone (including the hosts!) can be sitting, eating, and present for the entire evening. Raclette FTW!

It’s sort of true though, especially for their culture. They take eating so seriously that I wouldn’t dare fuck with it. Just happy I am of Italian descent so I already had an idea of what I was getting into.

Hmmmm, yeah, I agree.

Hmmmm....pasta (especially fresh pasta in Italy) has eggs in it. I think that’s why it’s a lot harder to be a Vegan than a Vegetarian in Italy.

Can confirm. My family is Italian and my boyfriend is French. Dietary restrictions to them are really big no-nos. Also, try asking for you meat cooked anything but “blue” in France. Good luck! :-)
