Interesting that we have commenters accusing them of whining, when I suspect the tone would be drastically different if it was the show’s only black woman engaging in shoplifting.

From my experience, Americans really struggle to understand that their perception of systemic racism rooted in slavery is much different…

I don’t think an episode of South Park from 2004 has been directly responsible for the rise of Donald Trump which apparently makes me more politically astute than a significant portion of this site.

SNL is supposed to be “not ready for prime players” who are trying to get their chance, not established cast to suck up everyone else’s oxygen. Yes, not all cast members pan out but they should all get their chances.

Exactly. Their motivation is rejection. It’s not improvement, it’s not building something better, it’s not anything real or anything with a potential positive outcome. It’s a childish, mindlessly destructive, self-centered tantrum thrown by people who aren’t capable of anything better.

It’s the classic rub of hating evil but also hating having to do something about it because you’re complicit in that evil. Defeating nazis is only cool when it doesn’t require you to change your life in any way.

Wtf, I care about grammys now

Ed Sheeran has the benefit of looking funny and having actually worked his way into the industry by grinding away doing pub gigs and the like for a handful of years.

This makes him just about the most authentic musician to have hit the mainstream British charts in years, which led to the press constantly wanking him…

At this point MCU is graded on a curve where as long as they keep up that generic baseline competence, it’s pretty hard for a film to fall below your standard 3/5 “fresh” rating.

72% so far is not promising.

Say what you will about media representation in 2021, but I think we’ve managed a handful of successful shows like that already. 

The difference is that 2020 redditors have rightfully stopped doing the whole long-winded patronizing ‘gentlemanly’ insult shtick, because it was cringe as fuck.

Just call him a ‘retard’ next time you want to disagree, it will honestly have far more impact.

Why do you talk like a 2010s redditor.

The show is basically a tongue-in-cheek dark comedy at this point, and I can’t tell if it’s intentional or not.

Joe is hilariously incompetent at this whole killer stalker thing, all the other characters are insufferable, and it’s amusing watching the extent to which he just keeps getting away with it through the…

I believe McElhenney has very heavily hinted at juicing in one interview or another. Steroids have a bad public perception, but considering they’re cheap, safe, easily available, and incredibly effective, you would be a sucker not to take that shortcut and make twice the progress in half the time.

Pretty much any…

Guardians of the Galaxy came out, people snickered. Talking raccoons? A walking tree with a 3 word vocabulary? Chris Pratt is headlining a movie?

That didn’t happen.
And if it did, it wasn’t that bad. <——- You are here.
And if it was, that’s not a big deal.
And if it was, they deserved it.

It’s a weird sort of cognitive dissonance where everyone implicitly admits “cancel culture” is real, it just so happens that 95% of the time it’s not as effective as the people…

Also people keep praising GoTG and Ragnarok for having the signature styles of their respective directors, but IM3 is Shane Black through and through and was way ahead of its time as far as I’m concerned.

Idk man, Snyder Cut is unironically a far more coherent film than Tenet.

It’s because John Mulaney was kind of their go-to ‘heckin inoffensive wholesome smol innocent uwu bean’ comedian as compared to… basically every single other comedian out there, and now that illusion has been shattered.

Something something infinite realities, something something closest Rick on the Rick spectrum.

“What is this guy doing that merits intensive press coverage, again?”
