GIRLS talk (the Lena Dunham thread)

i dunno, big lofty type space w/ people just milling around sounds about right

allison williams is dating ricky van veen of college humor, which was bought by barry diller much like charlies app was ostensibly bought by some clueless rich guy, college humor offices have a v similar vibe to whats represented in the show

i think maybe techy vs. mag/journo startups tend to have a different feel?

although 4real, i may have only been in the offices of unsuccessful startups.

well at any rate im glad to have successfully derailed this thread to focus on something important

how did they calculate an increase in their monthly average users when they've only been going for about a month?

same way he managed to hire an entire office of models

how do we know its only been a month

It was also the time period where Hannah's OCD symptoms slowly surfaced.

it is p genius that this scene comes after a scene in which new girlfriend explicitly lists what she will and will not tolerate in bed

well i never

tbh!!!

that "cumshot" seemed...very realistic

i know right. all I could think was 'hmm well that's a tv first if ever I saw one' lol

someone needs to update http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hbo#Network_slogans

with - 2013 - "It's HBO (now with realistic cumshots)."

Some silly clickbait from Foreign Policy:

One of the new dumb-asses at what used to be the Onion did a pretty fucking awful misogynist bit o' funny about Girls. I'm not linking.

it's about ten inches up the thread

that turn of phrase made me lol

it is but one modest dildo away

I am pleased that I missed it in this thread. It's vile, and I will defend the Onion no more forever.

idk I thought the onion thing was pretty fucking funny

Also thought the same wrt the cumshot. I was like wait, is that real!?

cumshot technology has come so far

Yeah, what's unfunny and, dare I ask, misogynist about the Onion thing?

wasnt there some HBO or Showtime drama a few years ago that had an IRL handjob with IRL jizz and everyone was reporting on it

lol @ irl jizz

haha

I don't have HBO. Should I just do an irl gis?

here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tell_Me_You_Love_Me

google search 'irl jizz on hbo or showtime'

oh thanks my current search for girls c on t's wasn't bringing up anything germane to the discussion.

hahah

dadgum jizzbos

We didn't see the actual shot though, just a rear-view pre-shot and an aftermath.

aftermath good enough for me for right now, thx

"Previously on HBO Pornhub"

idk I thought the onion thing was pretty fucking funny

feel like this possibly could have been defensible if omg lena denham's naked body wasn't already the one-line played out bio of the show/bate for emmy sketches, but since it's a weird & kinda disturbingly focused on topic this is just piling on. it really sucks to see the onion really suck.

lol that FP article was so stupid why did i read the whole thing through the tiny greyed-out gap between the bottom of the monitor and the "sign into fp with facebook" popup

"the onion should go back to what they do best, making fun of the handicapped and the poor, and leave lena dunham alone"

i'm not defending the article, i'm just saying that this is a funny place to draw your line w/r/t the publication that ran "Bottom 10 percent of last year's graduating class ready to take on Saddam"

and

http://www.theonion.com/articles/clinton-deploys-very-special-forces-to-iraq,645/

actually, I take that back 100%. where people draw their lines is their business.

sexism is bad iirc

"kinda disturbingly focused on topic"

SO disturbing that people joke about Dunham being naked all the time on the show when she's naked/semi-naked in like 90% of the episodes.

"look at us until you see us" iirc. if she were skinny no one would focus on it in the same way. doi.

sexism is bad iirc
