That struck me as really odd as well. I would think the word denying the allegations would be first, followed by the adjectives detailing the statements as malicious, etc.

You just blew my mind!

Thanks for the detailed explanation! I hadn’t thought about her moving to Monaco to be near the kids. If she really cared about being near them more than anything else I'd think she'd be there by now.

From what I understand, his father owned a business but they were definitely on the McMansion side. I live in the same area as them, and know a couple rich kids who got out of DUIs or weed possession because of their parents’ reputations.

Wow. I guess the affluenza was caught by that whole family! Did she ever get sentenced?

I live near Burleson and was hoping Jez would post about this, because the local news and my facebook feed have been all about it. It just makes me sad that the general public reaction I see is “Well, he’s a piece of shit but he’ll probably get off scot free after this too.” It’s iust accepted that this “affluenza”…

That sounds like something I’d be interested in, knowing what’s gonna happen. Since you and I seem to have similar TV preferences, have you seen Master of None? It's another that I have really mixed feelings about.

From what I understand, she’s essentially kidnapped her kids several times, and had her ex husband deported after they split, in hopes that she could just keep the kids with her in the US.

She'll get a period stain on her Golden Globes dress?

Aspirin? You're being too generous here.

Daaaaamn that is one hell of a missive!

Thanks! I think my biggest overall issue is that from the commercials I'd seen on FX it looked really funny, but the article on here talked about the depression plot line. That does interest me, but I guess I need to stop expecting much humor.

Ew.

I had a male friend do that to me years ago when I told him I’d had a blackout hookup. I’d planned on having sex with the guy that night, and we were both trashed and couldn’t remember much in the morning. But my friend kept insisting it wasn't just a drunken hookup and that I was raped.

I like this plan.

Do you think I'd be too confused if I started season 2 now?

I really want to hear the end of that skydiving story though. How did he manage to land without breaking his legs?!

And he was the only one who saw it explode? C’mon now.

Exactly, and I’m sure it’s much more difficult for many trans women to pass, especially without professional hair, makeup, and styling like Caitlyn has. Her lack of awareness of her privilege is really starting to irk me.

I forgot that show existed! I loved Maya Rudolph on it. So did he mean her physical imperfections?
