Maura Tierney’s character in Liar Liar. He was a jacka** and she was right all along. And it wasn’t her fault that she was seeking a better life for her kid. “Don’t make me lose Max too!” What the eff?! Your choices made this happen buddy, not hers!

Yeeeup. This was what Gloria Steinem was trying to say (in my opinion) when she explained why young women were voting for Bernie. I didn’t disagree.

I haven’t seen American Beauty since it came out, but I didn’t realize we were supposed to sympathize with Kevin Spacey. He was such a loser and a creep and a jerk. I thought that is what they were going for.

I watched Mannequin recently and the most empathetic character in the film is Roxie, the protagonist’s ex-girlfriend. Dude was a talentless sociopath and then she had to deal with her sexually harassing boss and then watch as the aforementioned talentless sociopath rocket to success in the industry she climbed the…

All it means is that he had 93 acting credits and that Bill is a super common name for people/characters in his age bracket.

YES on Carolyn. HOW DARE SHE TRY TO GET ANYTHING DONE! THAT BITCH!!!

I like Edgar Wright and the Scott Pilgrim movie, but Scott’s whole arc in the book is realising he’s been as bad a boyfriend as the people he’s fighting if not worse. That’s totally missed in favour of style, which maybe should have been a warning sign for Baby Driver.

Usually, it relates to jamming. More than likely in this case, however, he just forgot that he had a chambered round or one in the magazine before dropping it as he was clearing, which would fit with the rest of the stupidity he demonstrated quite capably.

I’ll just say that the vast majority of firearm deaths are suicides, so your anecdotes reflect reality.

Actual responsible gun people insist that the term “negligent discharge” should be used to underline that these incidents are absolutely not “accidents.”

While I can easily think of a couple reasons the weapon went off that are accidental and would be beyond his control, the more you read about this the weirder this gets.

Ah, the legendary Responsible Gun Owner. Here’s some news: even Responsible Gun Owners can have fuckups.

“No, we need to put good ceilings on both sides of the bad ceilings so the bad ceilings can be stopped before they do any harm.” - Dwayne LaPlasterre, President of the National Ceiling Association

This could be pure wide-eyed optimism on my part but having seen police at press conferences, I would bet that this was a statement of fact and not a defense of the incident or an attempt to control the narrative. If a reporter asked “Was the student shot?” the factual answer here is “No, he was injured in a shooting…

This headline and its premise say so much about the normalization of gun culture. Accidently discharged? Was this one of those triggerless guns? You know, the one with jello bullets that inexplicably calcified into metal bullets? Did it not have a safety? No, since “the weapon accidently discharged,” the gun must be…

Seaside Police Chief Abdul Pridgen told the Monterey Weekly that the fragments were not from the bullet, but from debris that fell from the ceiling upon the bullet’s impact.

A gun went off in a classroom and nothing was done.

Another example of someone who considers himself a “responsible gun owner”

This post reads like a Trumpian fever dream. A child was injured by a loaded firearm wielded by his teacher in class and no one, not one person thought taking said child to the hospital or at the very least, calling his fucking parents would maybe be a good idea?

“Let’s give teachers guns! This is a great idea, what could possibly go wrong?!”
