SPOILERS re SWEETS

I can't decide which is better - the gamers are tragic U-turn or the thing where he said all the people getting threats were a/ lying about it and b/ being big whiny babies about it, and then proceeded to make a huge fuss about getting a threat. I mean, it's never OK for anyone, whatever kind of pond scum they are,…

She asked for $6,000, so that's what she "supposedly needed"

There are exceptions though. if you're right wing enough, it's considered perfectly OK to describe gamers as tragic and sad, and then - after realising that there's an audience segment out there ready to listen to and amplify all your bullshit - suddenly 'discover' games.

I read it as that there was no answer. That whatever she whispered amounted to fuck you, there is no afterlife. Maybe. I loathe and despise this film, so maybe I wanted to take the least 'worthwhile' reading of all.

It's a paradox - my favourite ever romance was also so often botched by the creative choices around it. I think many people's love for it came from Anderson & Duchovny's chemistry, and from stuff the other writers gave them, and was despite Carter, not because of him. Which I guess just makes it stronger.

I feel like I only ever see the term 'cherry-pick' used in discussions about AS, and yet it seems to be used by every single person who criticises her. They must be getting it from somewhere.

no, 350 of them are people going 'oh no, the butthurt MRAs will be here any minute' and the other 50 are people going 'there are more comments predicting butthurt MRAs than there will be butthurt MRAs here'

It was writing/rewriting/firing people halfway through that caused the problems with the Dark World, wasn't it? Let's hope this whole new writer business is good rather than bad news.

Thank you, fellow Soup.
I'm sorry to hear of your break-up - divorce is one of the saddest things in the world. I hope you're doing OK now. I'm just realising that for myself, I have to accept that I probably won't ever get over it, or fully accept it. It feels wrong. Even though we were making each other miserable (it…

I always really liked Dawn (and the whole story of her) too.

Hooray! This is awesome. I love everything about this. I used to wonder if I just loved I Want To Believe because I was such a blinkered fangirl that X-Files could do no wrong for me. (Although there's plenty of episodes I think do wrong.) But with this I did wonder, hearing people talk about it as if it were canned…

I know it's unfashionable to be sad about both parts of this story, but I am sad nonetheless.

Like Self/Less? Huh I just realised that Self/Less and Face/Off both use the / and one's abot mind swapping and one's about body swapping.

It's fine, people love to hate on it but I enjoyed it for what it was. I liked it much more than Jurassic World.

You're right, yeah, that's a better term.

Cool, thank you.

No YOU sound goofy! (Who on earth says goofy? At least we don't use words like goofy!!!!)

I'm not sure what you mean by West End. Do you mean, like, posh?

I used to work in West Acton. They don't.
