Yeah, the producers probably cajoled this guy into making a fool out of himself.

I think this is less similar to the Streisand effect and reminds me of the Vincent Chin case. In 1982, Chinese American Vincent Chin was murdered outside of a bar in Detroit by two white unemployed automotive employees. They were convicted of manslaughter, but were sentenced to no time in jail, but probation and…

Yeah, but I compared MJ to Clinton because they both essentially “retired” at almost the same time. MJ in 2003, Clinton in 2001, and GWB in 2009. GWB has way more global recognition than Clinton for the reasons you stated, as well as because the internet was so much bigger during GWB’s time than Clinton’s. I think…

I doubt that. How many Supreme Court Justices went to Harvard? And how many attorneys arguing before them went to Harvard? A lot.

I was not aware of her band or the backlash. But, I doubt she or the band will suffer more punishment than Turner will see. I have no idea what she looks like, and didn’t know she was in a band until you pointed it out. They can disband and get day jobs, or just change the name of their band, and significantly reduce…

Turner gets off super lightly. But, perhaps in the grand scheme of things, this light sentence is better for society. This sentence seems to be a national outrage at best and a national conversation at worst. If Turner was sentenced to 1 year instead of 6 months, perhaps this story would fly under the radar and this…

Unless, you’re legitimately swimming laps.

If you want to go “action shot” or “baseball card shot,” where the famous person is doing what they are most famous for, MJ is in the conversation, as is the pope. It depends on if people can say, “the pope,” instead of the name. If “the pope” is a good enough answer, then Pope Francis probably wins. Obama is probably…

Famous ex- athletes:

He looks like Michael Cera. The resemblance is uncanny.

Yeah, “boyish men” is more positive than “mannish woman.” But I think that “too boyish,” is much less positive than “too girlish.” I don’t think those are “one-to-one.”

Curry is listed as 6'3" and 190 lbs, so no, he is not little. But is it really ok to say “he’s just too little”? When people say the Williams sisters are “too muscular,” Jezebel rushes to condemn those comments. I don’t see much of a difference here. Especially since Curry is in fact not “little” at all, by non-NBA…

“Or do his boyish looks disinterest you?”

“The issue, for the movie’s critics, is its implication that suicide is the ultimate solution for disabled people.”

So, you cannot copyright a title, since “there are not enough words to go around.”

Other fighters would continue to refer to him as Clay, and Ali would taunt them in the ring saying, “WHAT’S MY NAME?” As he punched them in their faces.

Here it is again. It is about one page on a Word document...

Last week on a different thread you told another commenter that saying how easy life is for women is my reason for living, and that I am racist and very long winded. I agree to being long winded but I disagree with the other points. I wrote you a long essay explaining myself. I posted this essay to you on a different…

In the movie’s world, the hotel people can earn an extra day in the hotel by killing one of the animals who were formerly people. The movie opens with such an act.

Oh really? he used a “foreign object”? huh. Well, that is a useful bit of information, which quite frankly does make the sentence make more sense. Or perhaps, “less nonsense,” is a better way of describing it.
