Is that how I took it? Okay. Might want to calm down there.

I give them points for the absurdity, as is often the case. Like, the moral of ManBearPig is absolutely odious, but having Al Gore talk about how he's "so super-serial" is still hilarious.

Boy, you got MY number, boy howdy. Good thing there are reasonable, sane people like you to set me straight. People who are only offended by REALLY important things like someone not liking an episode of a cartoon.

Whoops, my apologies, you seem super-chill.

I thought the "PC WILL KILL US ALL!!!!" hysteria was a ridiculous peg to hang an episode on but the absurdity of the PC fratboys helped redeem it a lot. This show has proven it can make me laugh pretty hard with any variation on the "[x] acting like bros" formula.

Once again we see that the people who whine about "outrage culture" are themselves really, really quick to outrage.

To be fair, no one who uses the term has anything nice to say about Jews or women either.

How does that prove the episode's point? The episode's "point" was Parker and Stone whining about how they're being silenced, in the form of a nationally broadcast episode of television whining about how they're being silenced.

I mean, I didn't like this episode because it was unbelievably lazy and managed to be even smugger than that old episode where the moral was "Jewish lawyers made up the concept of sexual harassment," so I don't really see how that makes its point.

Yes. "Political correctness" has pretty much lost what little meaning it ever had but it basically means "Being offended by something I, personally, don't find offensive."

Well, no, actually, that would be YOUR logical fallacy, what with presenting not wanting to hear "alternative viewpoints" as the only possible reason to object to paying the speaking fees of someone like Condoleezza Rice.

Don't you have a presidential campaign to be running?

Yes. That is why people don't want to give money to war criminals. Because they're scared of "alternative viewpoints."

Yes, I have noticed college students deciding they should have a say in how their student fees are spent. I managed not to have a heart attack somehow.

Last season was hit-or-miss but I already miss the Stone/Parker who wrote something as viciously hilarious as the Trayvon Martin episode.

You ever notice how everyone whining about how "PC" is "silencing" them is doing so in a national forum with no consequences whatsoever?
Although Randy's "There were refreshments, yes" made me laugh really hard.

I'm just frustrated with Matrix/Lego Movie Syndrome, where the much tougher, more competent female character's purpose in the story ends up being propping up the less-so male character who turns out to be the Chosen One. I remember hearing how Furiosa was the real protagonist of Fury Road and worrying that would be…

As far as I can tell the review is saying that stripping a female character of all limitations in terms of what she can accomplish isn't particularly empowering or realistic, and the film respects her character enough to make her three-dimensional enough to fail.

Jason Segel must have backed out.

One deeply hopes. I thought she elevated The Young Victoria all the way out of paint-by-numbers-regency-biopic territory all by her lonesome, which is really tricky for one person to do.
