I’ve listened to both the recent ozyfest and quiz kids episodes enough times that my phone is starting to suffer from depression. Just masterful episodes coming out recently.

I like the part in the Ozy fest epiosde near the end where they mention the New Jim Crow and Amber says "that book sucks" and you can hear in Will's voice an absolute lack of willingness to deal with that take at that moment.

"Iannuccian" is a good word. Props to Felix. A "voodoo doctor" is a houngan, right? Felix doing a good Matt impression with the rage. prefect fucked around with this message at 13:46 on Jul 31, 2018 |

Jonas Albrecht posted:She cites Adolp Reed, who wrote: Have read the book, would be interested if Amber has. There are valid criticisms for just about anything, but one of the most annoying forms of criticism comes in the form of saying something is bad because someone else does. I like Adolph Reed, but sometimes it can get exhausting to not get to enjoy or gain insight from something because it is not radical enough. Shits boring, who cares.

It's just a really overwrought way to say 'the book doesn't really say much about contemporary racial issues because it focuses so hard on the narrative of 'ok guys we agree these old bigoted laws were bad, right? Well this is like them again'.' So basically not wrong but took a whole paragraph to say one line, the Adolph Reed story.

yeah overwrought is right. seems like a quick way to gussy up your hot take by hitting the thesaurus before posting.

Hey, a Futurama episode made the list. Wasn't expecting that.

that list is finely tuned to make the maximum number of people unhappy and generate the most clicks

No X-Files? Immediate trash. Also, they went with the musical Buffy episode? Sure, it's fun for fans, but there are much better episodes.

Does it have the episode where Gohan goes Super Saiyan 2 for the first time?

Only one cartoon episode, it being the anime one of South Park. Sidenote... was anyone surprised at after several episodes of (rightfully) admonishing Liberal critics for attempting to be more nitpicky about what scripture and what religion Republican / Conservative types follow during law making, down to one episode having a Matt somewhat told off for pointing out the Israeli Govt's love of the alt-right and vice versa being somewhat ironic, and more or less a chunk of this episode having a fit over her going to a Houngan, saying it wouldn't fit with the conservative and more christian crowd? I mean, the McCains are still a figure of note.

It's so perfectly designed to make a certain kind of person angry. There's an ep of Survivor above any Sopranos episode. It's a particularly lovely kind of genius

Kunster posted:Only one cartoon episode, it being the anime one of South Park. They were complaining about wishy-washy pseudo religion that excuses all your lovely behaviors and allows you to be comfortable with your own complete lack of critical thinking because some mythical force loves you unconditionally. The Houngan is just an example of her lack of conviction about anything (except that you're not allowed to criticize her for anything, especially not if it has to do with her enormous wealth and privilege).

Also what she describes her experience as is nothing more than cold reading so she's literally dumb enough to fall for a literal scam and have it form her religious beliefs.

I did tarot readings in college for spare cash and there was no faster way to spot a mark than someone taking your reading 'to heart' before their first 30 minutes are even up.

It owns that someone whose dad's entire life has been devoted to crashing a plane a week in Vietnam then authorising as many trillions in defense appropriations as he physically manage is quoting the "problem with socialism" line.

I agree that Scott Tenorman is the best though. Their choice for CYE pissed me off when they ranked that series and made me mad again this time around.
