5 Racist and Sexist Messages Hidden in Forrest Gump

Taint says...

Bubba's mom did have a line! When Forrest first visits her she says: "Are you stupid or something?"

With glaring errors like this I just don't know how I can take After Hours seriously!

Breaking the Code: Biography of Alan Turing

Taint says...

I thought this was wonderful.

Four months late, but I thank you for sifting this.

What an amazing, remarkable man, and what a tragic story for one of the true intellectual giants of all time.

I've read a lot of glowing reviews for Titanic, but this is probably the first time I've heard it freed someone from mental slavery.

Say what you will about the plot of Avatar, but James Cameron really knows how to make a movie.

Jurassic World - Official Trailer

Taint says...

The final shot has me confused. Are the raptors running past Chris Pratt because he has plot armor, or is he actually leading a pack of raptors into battle?

I'm Just A Bill vs Executive Order - SNL

Taint says...

I didn't intend to, but watched the whole video. So funny.

Reminds me of something the comedian Doug Stanhope said once, i'll paraphrase from memory: "If you lose your job to an illegal alien with no training or education who doesn't even speak our language... then your job sucks."

Car Parks on Pedestrian Crossing. Pedestrian Gets Revenge

Taint says...

Someone accidentally pulled a little too far ahead and this guy decides to be a complete dick about it.

No one was in danger, anyone could literally walk a foot out of their way and get around the front of that car.

The driver made an innocent mistake, this guy is being a deliberate asshole.

Hottest Year Ever (Global Warming Hiatus) - SciShow

Taint says...

You're like a walking breathing parody of yourself.

I don't know whether you really can't wrap your head around concepts such as averages, or if you're just trying to be funny or something.

If you're honestly willing to ignore the vast majority of people who spend their lives studying a specific field for no other reason than you prefer trusting your gut, then the sympathy really needs to go entirely in your direction.

Hottest year on record except, of course, for all those places covered in snow. I wonder if the heat stopped hiding in the ocean: "It's virtually certain that California will have its warmest year on record, even if California has record cold in December." It's the warmest year even if it's simultaneously the coldest December (or winter) on record. That's what I call "useful" data. Maybe the heat only hides during certain months, and then comes out and then hides out again, like for the Holidays or something.

I gotta sympathize with the global warming folks who latch onto any data point they can use to promulgate the freakout... anything that justifies their existence (until they inevitably run out of improbable causes).

10 Hours of Walking in NYC as a Woman

Is it harassment if I point out how funny I think this is?

Is it harassment if the pretty girl on the bus catches you staring at her reflection in the window, like, 3 times in a row?

The most awkward interaction with women is at night, when they are walking alone in the dark, and you are behind them and they can see your shadow from the street lights and your footsteps getting nearer. I can't slow down and just keep distance because then I am a stalker. I can't speed up because then I am chasing her. So now I am trying to do all the things I think a rapist wouldn't do, which is exactly how I imagine a rapist would think, so I try to stop thinking like that. Tension mounts until I am within striking distance, when she takes a quick glance over my shoulder and sees my grimace (a poor attempt to produce a friendly smile), and accelerates to the maximum possible walking pace without offending british insensibilities. Her max is my medium, so we continue onwards into the darkness in silence, a couple of feet apart, air full of tension, neither willing to deescalate by crossing the road. Awkward. But maybe that's just me.

Unwanted attention is pretty uncomfortable. To me, harassment suggests sustained unwanted attention. I guess the problem is for the guy it's not sustained, but for the woman it is. If she is getting it from every corner, then the net result is harassment. Catcalling is just plain rude and disrespectful tho, no excuse for that.
