Ugh, why do people keep saying this. Die Hard isn't a Christmas movie, it is a movie that was set during Christmas.The fact that it takes place over Christmas is completely incidental to the plot, and the writers could have picked any other time of the year and they wouldn't have needed to change anything. It's no more a Christmas movie than Kojima's Snatcher is a Christmas videogame.

Funnier to me is framing the release of US prisoners from Iran as scoring points against Republicans. It's incongruous but I still understand why Animal Nuz is doing a victory dance.

Trump will round up and publically purge all of the minorities and people he disagrees with, and this is a good thing. A Joseph Stalin Cartoon.

The last panel should be written "God is not so nice." This isn't true for all Christians, mind, but does the author realize he just made the argument that he's more compassionate towards the dead than God?

I just want to walk into any public space, drop my pants, and then scream until the nearest brown person sucks me off. Double points if it's a brown woman! I'm just worried if I don't vote for Trump - who by the way is NOT RACIST and NOT MISOGYNIST; that's all just a bunch of bullshit the media's feeding ya - then I'm just dooming myself to another ten thousand years of being completely owned and destroyed by brown people, and it's not a world I want to leave my perfect children in.

Sure, he's a wife-beater, but that's not how we judge these things. Otherwise, Ed Wood was a better film-maker than Roman Polanski.

Originally, my "unholy trinity" was Asay, Lester, and Glenn McCoy. With Asay's retirement, I need someone to replace him, and since then Branco seems to have become much more noticeably evil. Ramirez occasionally goes for the "pure evil" prize, but most of the time he's too bland to hate.

I asked my New Yorker friend what "New York values" are and she said not missing the drunk train at 1:40am and having to wait four hours for the next one.

Seriously though, if Trump gets the nomination I'm gonna be sad because it means Republicans will stop their outlandish complaints about him, and be replaced with comparatively more reasonable and less entertaining complaints from the Dems.

The only time Real Americans like New York is when it's blown up/under rubble/meltin' steel beams with jet fuel.
Not the rest of the time when it's full of hateful Jews and frightening immigrants and complicated food and the homosexuals.
