It's how her species communicates

The problematic part is the implication that trans girls are only dressing in girls' clothes to trick (or 'trap') boys into having (gay) sex with them, and that they aren't actually girls as a result.

I already knew what trap meant, but I just wanted to say I really, really appreciate it when someone steps up and actually explains a controversial term instead of harping on other people for not knowing why it's so bad.

Probably hold off on sending out the corrected versions, maybe a week or two. Just in case.

Yea, but it finished second in theaters and made almost $25 million, which is half its budget in the first weekend. It will probably still make a decent amount of money even though it's terrible.

Yeah, one of the reviewers was "Let's make no mistake, this is probably one of the worst movies ever made, but people will still probably go see it because it's better than watching the national news right now."

plain clothes ICE agent in American flag t-shirt with PROUD across the front drops his gun and blows his ankle off in Orlando International Airport.

I work there and saw it happen. He was slinging his bag over his shoulder and it caught his gun in the holster. He also had a goatee.

They do not.

My absolute favourite movie poster dickery is this poster for Legend. See if you can spot what they did:


They included the two star score from The Guardian but the layout makes it look like a four star review.

They trashed their wedding photographer over a $125 fee, so a jury told them to pay her $1 million

An autumn affair at the Petroleum Club in downtown Dallas, the union of a full-time beauty blogger and the love of her life, appeared to be a gorgeous thing — marred by one misfortune.

Three months after the ceremony, in front of a local television crew, Andrew and Neely Moldovan showed off a box of empty picture frames.

Their photographer was withholding the images, they told NBC affiliate KXAS in January 2015, and was demanding an extra $150 when they’d already paid thousands.

“It’s heartbreaking, because, you know, these are our memories,” Neely Moldovan said.

And many agreed.

......

And then the story changed.

Polito sued the Moldovans, claiming all they ever had to do to get their glossies was fill out a form, choose options for their wedding album and pay a small charge they had long known about.

I had to deal with an apartment fire once where the girl who was cooking French fries started a fire, and instead of reaching for the fire extinguisher in the pantry, called her boyfriend and asked him what to do. He also eschewed the fire extinguisher, in favor of telling her to throw flour on it. After that made it bigger, she called emergency maintenance. Maintenance told her to call the fire department.

People are dumb, and even dumber when they panic.
