excuse me, madam defarge. why doesnt she give some fucking money to unicef or something instead of continuing to hold her candlelight vigils for caylee anthony and bitching about what terrible mothers everyone is?! she basically calls out for public execution against women who get manslaughter charges, and then just acts like men who murder children non-accidentally are just normal people getting a job done.
I'm actually DEFINITELY NOT taking this too far. your response is so unexamined. you probably think women who bitch about UGH, FEMINISM are such a fucking DRAG and just need to get over it already. they're all ugly anyway, right- otherwise they would just be flattered by that male attention! I am glad that you can genuinely ignore the fact that sexism still exists in the foundation of our society, I'm sure it makes things a lot easier for you. But I can't and it is something that affects and disturbs me every single day. Nothing makes me inherently better as a human being than anyone, period, including people who are not disturbed by or ignorant of different types of oppression. I just dont believe I have to take any of their uninformed opinions as truth.
and I honestly just think Judith Butler should be the go to for learning about shit in this world sometimes.
Uhh dude, you are missing the point. It's not just 'making a joke.' It's going so far beyond that and revealing what kind of shit society pumps into people's heads about women and sexual abuse.
Im quite aware that 99% of the people who are fans of this guy probably dont know anything about genocide that they couldnt watch in a fucking Kony 2012 video and that we are not dealing with Judith Butler scholars in the audience here. These are the same kind of people that cheered when Rick Perry talked about executing mentally handicapped people, okay. And that is kind of why it is so important to stop propagating this shit.
While he may not be literally 'encouraging rape,' he IS encouraging asserting power over women so they are frightened into doing what men want. that's what he was doing, he was threatened by her actually challenging him to think about what he has said, and his immediate response was to intimidate her with the threat of sexual violence because it is something women are vulnerable to. He is encouraging the kind of behavior that often manifests itself as rape.
but i guess she should just get over it, right? gosh women are so annoying!
Louis CK does not try to intimidate women with the threat of sexual violence because they disagree with him making misogynist remarks because Louis CK is not a misogynist dickhead like Daniel Tosh FOR FUCK'S SAKE!

Meet the Bobby Brown's Dead Wife in My Time Craft Machine
because of that time tyler perry flew whitney's body to her funeral in his private jet. in this version, whitney would awaken fresh, as if from sleep, and they could time travel together in his tardis-like jet. i think the langoliers might show up, too.
oh man, i was really hoping this film would actually be about a teenager's journey as a contestant on the show. there would be acid wash jeans and frayed white t-shirts and shit everywhere, and we could see the other rival gumshoes back stage abusing drugs and crying over geography textbooks. then in the end this one good egg teenager just like knocks that shit out of the water, running around pinning those giant light-up markers all over the map. where was carmen sandiego? fucking KYRGYZSTAN, if you believe it. they win and are carried on the shoulders of the losers, and they bring out jlo in a red trench coat and she's totally humiliated for all of public television to see. and then maybe as a side plot the guys that sing the theme song could be like a strugging acapella group trying to make it big, and they come out and perform and blow everyone's minds on starsearch one day or something.
I feel like there lots of good THINGS about it which I like very much, but like, all together, I just don't really like watching it? I get bored with it. and then I feel bad because I'm like "it's Bill Murray! and Portuguese David Bowie songs! and fucking cool surreal sea life and intricate sets! Goldblum is so ridiculous! How can I be bored with this?!" But I am. It's like a lot of pieces and quirks that are awesome but they aren't sewn together well or into something meaningful.
Bottle Rocket is last?!
Look, it takes a few watches. But that is what is GREAT about it! It's so subtle in its humor and there is so much dialogue and shit going on all the time, you cant catch it all. Every time I watch it I find new things I like about it. It's not as visually attractive or put together as the other films, and I do believe that Tenenbaums and Rushmore are the true masterpieces, but BR is excellent and shouldnt be discounted.
This is exactly how I feel about it but I couldn't put my finger on it. I like the film, but it is my least favorite because I just didnt really like the brothers or give a shit about any of their problems. Adrian Brody's character running away from his soon to be fatherhood? sorry, dont feel too much sympathy there. the throwing of the baggage at the end? ugh.
"And here ladies and gents, is the apartment building containing a solitary, dirty window which looks upon where Adam hate-masturbated in front of Hannah. This truly is the city where dreams become reality. Only 2 minutes for pictures, please."
adam corolla just understands that women cant be funny because they aren't allowed to make sophisticated fart and poop jokes like him and The Men of Comedy are- women's bodily functions are TOTALLY GROSS but men's are okay and often hilarious.
Surprisingly, I really enjoy this show, but I think what I appreciate most about it is actually just SEEING Lena Dunham as the main character. She just looks like a normal fucking person, and it is incredibly refreshing that for once the less 'conventionally attractive' female is the CENTRAL character and not just the throw-away fat girl character or whatever, which you know, it's probably about time we address how degrading that is, and admit how often we encourage women to just be attractive and not anything else. I love the fact that you see her body so often, because I feel like a lot of people perceive it as fairly shocking at first, but then they are just like "wow that is just a normal human body" and get the fuck over it.
I also really liked when she said to Adam, "You don't think we distract each other sometimes from the other stuff that we have going on?"
by the way, does everyone remember what an asshole ethan hawke was in reality bites? i still cringe thinking about how winona gets with him in the end. i'm pretty sure in the prologue to that film, troy does something shitty approx 2 days later and then gets kicked out. just kidding, she probably put up with it again due to his super witty mean banter and violent femmes covers. dickbag.
one of they only things I really remembered about Alien going into seeing this film was that ripley never trusted the androids, and that actually clued me into a lot of what was going on. everything david says or does or perceives has to be extremely literal, so when he asked holloway how far he would go, it seemed obvious that he was trying to identify if it was okay to follow through on his idea to give him the crumbleface dna juice.
5. glen listens to people and doesnt judge them- betty felt comfortable with him because he has the honesty of a child but also a sense of compassion that surpasses most of the adults around her. he connects with people in a very genuine, no bullshit way.
4. he can see people for what they are and shows a surprising amount of emotional understanding and maturity at times- ie, "just because youre sad doesnt mean everyone else has to be."
3. he is a good friend to sally- just because they dont look the same age anymore like they did in season 4 doesnt mean there is anything pedo going on, they're both kids of divorce and kindred spirits
2. he is smart and makes lots of quite astute and witty comments
1. he said all of the jocks pissed in his locker at school, so it sounds like everyone else are the creeps
i dont see how that makes glen creepy. he probably just saw some film on tv where a woman gave a lock of her hair to someone. they were always doing shit like that in old movies. he just thought it was sweet and that he could be like the grown ups.
concerning critics choice awards, and all other awards, i am confused as to why John Slattery is always nominated for awards and Vincent Kartheiser is not, when I think he has a much more difficult role to play.
i honestly thought the death this season was going to be roger's, just considering that he's had 2 heart attacks and has recently started dropping acid.
Glen is not creepy, Glen is awesome. He is weird but I like that. I like that he tore up their house for Sally, I like that he and Betty found comfort in the honesty they could have with each other free from judgment, and I liked his fuckin Teddy Roosevelt joke.
Remember Lane's dad beating the shit out of him about his girlfriend and telling him to get his house in order? the English deal with the emotions of pride a lot differently than Americans. Americans, no matter what your personality is, have a sort of optimism by birth that the English don't. This is the 60s, and not long beforehand, when Lane was probably just starting out in his career, England was on rationing and being bombed. Lane has to be thinking of this when he talks about his coworkers consumerism. His family comes across as quite posh so maybe he didnt have it too difficult, but I cant imagine how it felt for a post war Englishman to walk into the early 1960s American surfer beach party where every teenager had a car and every family had a detached house.
at least harry potter and the hunger games have some good messages for young people about being individuals and learning to think critically, i'd rather those things be popular with this mtv generation (which has never even SEEN Puck from the real world san francisco) than just twilight- which is terrible and teaches girls all that matters is having a boyfriend and doing your hair and writhing around in pain because sex is WRONG if youre not married so GET MARRIED AT 18 and get pregnant because it's NOBLE.
the sequel to this film is called "The Gingerdead Man: Passion of the Crust," I think we could trick the Apocalyptic Truth Tabernacle church in Greensburg Indiana into watching it.
"i want to live my life according to god's holy scriptures, and i want america to, also."
and in america, we totally have the FREEDOM to force everyone to live their life according to one set of values & principles!
I know I am in the minority, but I don't think Pete is a terrible person, and when he is being awful I often find those some of the funniest moments on the show. He is just someone who has incredible insecurities which manifest through impulsive behavior, and I think that is mainly due to never having anyone whom he could probably be himself with, and not having anyone that truly cares about him. Trudy cares but she does not want to actually know him, his family was a bunch of country club dicks who seemed to not have much regard for him. He is constantly trying to get people to like him but he has no idea how to relate to others. He is totally desperate to have a deep relationship with someone, I think that's why he got so attached to that married hate fuck gilmore girl. Something about Peggy allowed him to actually have character development, but we all know what happened there.
as a former child ballerina, i would just like to state that child ballerinas are the meanest most hellish versions of children that exist. they are 7 year olds that call each other fat constantly and when no one is looking they try to break your ankles.
