GIRLS talk (the Lena Dunham thread)

also the upcoming 'hannah actually a vampire' twist has gone the fuck out the window

that was funny. watched the 2nd one via sidereel. i thought that opening scene was a hoot. i think doofy boyfriend is really funny and not creepy or whatever. but i guess everyone sees something different when they watch sex stuff. just that whole thing was really funny to me. "what do you do?" "I do...what i'm told..." hahaha!

lots of good lines. the job interview thing made me laugh very loudly out loud. i actually appreciate that this show isn't entirely based on cringe humor cuz while i love the brit office and curb and other cringies i get a little tired of it. this show is more about funny sentences and i'm a big fan of those.

The not boyfriend isn't so much so much creepy as he is a typical young clueless idiot.

i dunno, he's at least a little in the 'creepy' column.

Yeah. So are a lot of dudes.

Sorry. Maybe a little but I just get young self-absorbed idiot and as a result sometimes asshole from him more than I do creep.

I mean, my first reaction isn't "eww he's so creepy" it's more like "ugh what an idiot".

he can be all of the above, is what i'm saying (xpost)

yeah, sure

like i've known a lot of young clueless idiots, and didn't necessarily know anything about their sexual habits, but i think if i just met that guy in a casual social situation, i'd be like he's kinda creepy

He's really weird looking. His little pinhead and totally hairless chest sort of do creep me out.

this is what i am saying

i dunno, i just think he's a young dude. and idiot/creep/weird/whatever kinda goes along with that. he could be worse! at least he actually tells lena she's pretty. wouldn't expect him to even go that far in the human emotion department.

He did seem genuinely concerned in that nanosecond. Still an idiot though.

way to body-shame, you guys!

Oh, come on. That guy is pretty exceptionally strange looking.

i wonder if anyone's found the casting call description of that character, would prob be pretty funny

he's kinda perfect casting. as far as 20-something oh-man-what-am-i-doing-in-this-apartment hookups go.

i think the casting choices on this show are more in line with casting choices of a show like Degrassi than Friends. and that is nothing but a good thing imo.

this show is more about funny sentences and i'm a big fan of those.
yes!

oh god does that mean skeevy shirtless dude is the next Drake

Hey, if there's a second season, maybe Drake can be the next him!

oh god i would love an episode of Girls guest starring Drake and loosely based on this article: http://www.gq.com/style/gq-100/201204/drake-interview-gq-april-2012

D: "i'll make your pussy whistle!"

L: "um, like the Andy Griffith theme?"

hahaaa

amazing

lol i just checked max's twitter. shiiiitstooorm!!

beyond hilarious that this all happened when gawker's comments are at the mechanic

link?

well there's this

Summary? I am sort of swamped for the rest of the day.

do you really need a summary other than "someone used the word 'lynching' to describe widespread criticism of a white person using racially insensitive language"

"racial mccarthyism," huh

who is mr goad?

kinda wanted to make a mr. goad's wild ride joek

brb, trademarking the phrase "white scare"

something very poetically gross about a lena dunham thread becoming a gavin mcinnes thread in 2012

"Gawker.com has also killed their comments section and come up with a new system where people have to register and be culpable for what they say. Gawker’s even given it the politically incorrect moniker “Pow-Wow.” (My family is 75% American Indian, by the way, and we are furious about this misappropriation.)"

god i know

xp

the number of times i've had occasion to think "fucking gavin mcinnes" in the past few weeks is just not right

at first i thought this would be about john cook's hatorade double-down in his 2nd recap. guessed wrong!

is this all enough to juice for another 1500 posts?

u young ppl sure love seein' yerselves on the teevee.

The beta males on Twitter seem confused by this “Racial McCarthyism” quote. It’s ironic that the people who use “Nazi” to mean “Anything bad” get thrown off by an anti-communist being used to conjure up something that isn’t specifically anti-communist. Check Wikipedia

“McCarthyism is the practice of making accusations of disloyalty, subversion, or treason without proper regard for evidence.”

does he mean ironic-ironic or alanis-ironic

haha beta males

he should make a workout dvd

i'm gonna start calling shirtless creepy Girls character whose name noone can remember "alpha"

do you really need a summary other than "someone used the word 'lynching' to describe widespread criticism of a white person using racially insensitive language"

― some dude

yeah seriously, barffff

who is this actor who plays the repellent idiot-or-asshole BF? Sounds like he is on the cusp of becoming a generational icon.
