actually no this is more like an iceberg that is the tip of a bunch of other icebergs

“Dr. Peterson,” the panel wrote, “believed that he appropriately dealt with the transference issue by discussing transference and encouraging (Samantha) to play out the fantasy scenario in her imagination, but to embed that in an imaginative dramatization of all the real-world consequences that would ensue.”

Play out your fantasies about me in your imagination. If you can work in a dragon and it is eating my ideological opponents, that will be especially therapeutic.

oh god

Yeah, I read about that. A right wing pressure group invites him to speak - i think he still tries to avoid describing himself as right wing or conservative. Not good for the cash flow, I guess.

That cannot be real. That is fucking hilarious

everything toilet paper usa does is a hilarious self-own, this is entirely in keeping with their unblemished track record of idiocy

Mark Millar tweeted support for JBP's stance on Elmo and now I have to go jump off a roof

Simon H., Monday, 4 June 2018 18:19 (eight years ago)

mark millar the awful comics guy?

( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Monday, 4 June 2018 18:20 (eight years ago)

yes

Simon H., Monday, 4 June 2018 18:21 (eight years ago)

afraid to ask what his stance on Elmo is??

flappy bird, Monday, 4 June 2018 18:21 (eight years ago)

he is anti-elmo, thinks he is a disgrace to the legacy of jim henson or some such nonsense (elmo was introduced before henson's death)

( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Monday, 4 June 2018 18:22 (eight years ago)

this is in his bestselling book apparently

( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Monday, 4 June 2018 18:22 (eight years ago)

wtf I love Elmo. fuck you Jordan

flappy bird, Monday, 4 June 2018 18:28 (eight years ago)

these fuckos would hate Grover if they remembered he exists

mh, Monday, 4 June 2018 18:46 (eight years ago)

for a guy who supposedly wants young men to reclaim their rugged masculinity, he sure does spend a lot of time railing against characters from kids' entertainment

and TOWERS MONACO as 'seaman' (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 4 June 2018 19:37 (eight years ago)

okay, I'll bite: what's wrong with Elmo

frogbs, Monday, 4 June 2018 19:39 (eight years ago)

he panders to the weaknesses of the child. no child who loves the unconditional fawning of the red muppet will ever be self-sufficient, let alone a man

mh, Monday, 4 June 2018 19:40 (eight years ago)

wtf I love Elmo. fuck you Jordan

hard agree

you bet, nancy (map), Monday, 4 June 2018 20:02 (eight years ago)

i saw the jp book sitting on an unoccupied table in a coffee shop the other morning while i was waiting in line. i scowled but was curious what the dude who returned to the table would look like. it was a 60-something year old woman.

you bet, nancy (map), Monday, 4 June 2018 20:06 (eight years ago)

Noooooooo

flappy bird, Monday, 4 June 2018 23:40 (eight years ago)

maybe her room is messy

flappy bird, Monday, 4 June 2018 23:41 (eight years ago)

elmo is grover for babies

adam the (abanana), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 00:31 (eight years ago)

They found that although the show was produced for 3-to-5-year-olds, children began watching it at a younger age. As a result, the target age for Sesame Street shifted downward, from 4 years to 3 years.

hmm yeah

mh, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 01:13 (eight years ago)

wasn't there an anti-Elmo gawker post a while back? It was a reasonable argument I thought. Maybe there's something to this Peterson guy.

JoeStork, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 01:31 (eight years ago)

I have to admit I hate Elmo for talking down to kids, but I dont want to be on Petersens side on that regard ugh.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 05:38 (eight years ago)

no I'm not particularly fond of him either but who gives a shit?

My name is the Pope and in the 90s I smoked a lot of dope (dog latin), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 08:02 (eight years ago)

Shouldn't Peterson hate everything Jim Henson stands for, anyway? Statist softie multiculturalism.

Daniel_Rf, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 10:20 (eight years ago)

you'd think so, but peterson's not really about following up on the logical endpoints of his various gripes about pop culture

and TOWERS MONACO as 'seaman' (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 10:29 (eight years ago)

Peterson seems like he'd identify with Sam the Eagle, solemnly engaged in a long, thankless struggle against the forces of degeneracy

soref, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 10:58 (eight years ago)

Mark Millar is the same age as me why the fuck do these wankers even have an opinion on Sesame Street?

Karius whisper (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 11:20 (eight years ago)

new board description ..etc.

calzino, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 11:26 (eight years ago)

mark millar is a cretin

cheese is the teacher, ham is the preacher (Jon not Jon), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 14:35 (eight years ago)

well, yeah

even more of a cretin that i’d imagined if he’s on the same page as jordan peterson, too

Ugh, a friend let me know that Peterson is a Simpsons fan:

Eliza D., Tuesday, 5 June 2018 15:45 (eight years ago)

'his thoughtless slut of a mother'

this fuckin' guy

and TOWERS MONACO as 'seaman' (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 15:48 (eight years ago)

He doesn't even know Uter's name, he's not much of a fan

Karius whisper (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 15:51 (eight years ago)

also: women want to be bullied, amirite ladies

this fuckin' guy

and TOWERS MONACO as 'seaman' (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 15:54 (eight years ago)

Also pretty sure the bully hierarchy is Kearney > Nelson > Jimbo

Eliza D., Tuesday, 5 June 2018 16:04 (eight years ago)

Christ he writes like a fucking mediocre undergrad bullshitting his way through a term paper.

omar little, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 16:10 (eight years ago)

I guess this explains all the rage I see directed at cartoon 8 year old Lisa?

gyac, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 16:19 (eight years ago)

*reschedules other patients, sits down, opens notebook, clicks pen*

So Jordan, tell me why your line of thought went from the elementary school age Lisa Simpson directly to 50 Shades Of Grey.

omar little, Tuesday, 5 June 2018 16:34 (eight years ago)

oh my god he is such a fucking dipshit

The FICTIONAL FUCKING CHARACTER Lisa likes Nelson because she finds out that he has a tender and sensitive side to him, that he's the child of neglect, not because he's brutish. WTF does this have to do with the popularity in the real world of 50 Shades of Grey you dumb fuck? DFKJSDFLKSDJFLKDSJFSDF

( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 16:35 (eight years ago)

women liked to be dominated, an example of this is when Lisa liked Nelson the bully in one episode of the Simpsons. I am a brain genius

( ͡☉ ͜ʖ ͡☉) (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 5 June 2018 16:36 (eight years ago)

Another important character of note is the self-made mogul Hank Scorpio, whose vision has transformed the town in which his company’s headquarters is located into a safe, secure paradise (a paradise only undone by government interference.) The streets are clean, homelessness has been eliminated, and under the benevolent yet firm guidance of Scorpio, Homer flourishes. He earns Scorpio’s respect so much that when he decides to resign (because of Marge’s shrill resistance to domestic ease, Lisa’s weak resistance to allergies, and Bart’s resistance to his perhaps correct diagnosis as a special needs child), Scorpio not only understands but subsequently gifts him with that most masculine of imprimaturs: an NFL team. Most interestingly, the team Homer is handed is the Denver Broncos, a squad which was regarded as the perpetual losers of the league. Homer initially regards the gift as a disappoint but, as history showed and as perhaps Scorpio was whispering to Homer via this franchise: “every loser wins eventually.”
