Hit it on the head, Dowd. Leatherface is most terrifying because there is no adequate answer to how does someone like that exist? He defies all comprehension.

the last shot of him in the original film standing alone in the road swinging around his chain saw cannot be topped or improved upon. why do filmmakers insist on ruining it all? this is why we can’t have nice things. (or nice, decapitated skin-mask things.) (also, i guess we want ants b/c that is how we get ants.)

That seems to be exactly what you’re saying, but okay. You agree with her tweets, therefore she shouldn’t have consulted him, while you disagree with his, therefore he should have consulted her. The difference is your personal preference.

Would you likewise say that Tamblyn should have run her tweets by Cross? I don’t think either has the obligation to consult the other.

Or the non-cynical version is that each RT helps to spread awareness and hopefully inspires others to make their own donations.

This kind of stuff is just the logical capitalist end-point of slacktivism. It all starts with a noble impulse—I want to show my support for a cause but I don’t have the the time to commit—and becomes perverted by the instant gratification of the internet. If putting in minimal effort yields quicker feedback than…

My favorite remains:

If “me too” is a potential trigger then what isn’t? I mean, this site could rebrand itself as trigger.com. Idly scanning through the headlines is like a firing squad. I don’t think it’s a good idea to give words that kind of black magic power. It does not promote mental health.

I hate cumdays.

Who are you to tell a #survivor what they can and can’t profit from?

this what you call racism...just because it’s a black women calling out a white male means it must be true on this site.

Most of the things here just happens inside this website. Actually I think The Root is one of the worse if not worst sites of the new “gawker” media empire or Gizmodo media

If your nature is to respond to typical on-court conflict with irrational violence, you shouldn’t play contact sports. You don’t just get a pass because you had a rough childhood.

Frustrating... what. Not instigating anything whaaaat. AB is toxic. Jesus, that whole Zayn Malik horror was barely a year ago and ran the whole gamut of racism, bigotry, homophobia and transphobia. The woman is a mess.

Remember those laws about not locking people in planes until the lemon-soaked paper napkins arrive? I’m pretty sure they were getting the passengers out onto the terminal and Williams wanted to push the baby instead of carry, andthe staff knew that there was no viable way to go digging through the checked luggage…

Great review, and very even-handed. I just put in my order. I’m glad it did not go the Polygon-esque route I (sadly) expected these days a Kotaku review to go for a game like this. Good job picking Jason Schreier to do it.

I don’t wanna be “that guy,” but can we get a little clarity on this? Was she trying to get her stroller while she was still on the plane? Where was she going to put it? Was she trying to get off the plane with the stroller? Was everyone getting off the plane?

How does a guy who basically types the dumbest fucking take then hits post on it not immediately realise how absolutely pig fucking ignorant what he wrote was and then kill themselves out of shame?

He helped his team buy into a completely new offensive system last year from a coach who has sometimes had problems getting people on board, increasing his offensive versatility, defensive effort, and engagement with the media for a team that won 14 more games than the year before.

Oh meanie! Your life sounds amazing! You have taught me the error of my ways and I will continue to pray that you survive your suicide attempt in order to more fully enjoy the cancer that kills you.
