[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lol she's been totally off everyone's radar for years, then she pops up with an interview and a project, and you're already "tired" of her.

She really sets people off. I also find her annoying but I find many celebrities annoying. I think the hate against her is much worse because she's not pretty and people do not feel she deserves to be famous as a result.[/quote]

Agree. I think people are triggered because it seems like a mediocre person with mediocre writing and mediocre looks and mediocre acting is getting her mediocre projects on HBO and Netflix. Writers and actors and producers would kill to get their screenplays picked up by HBO. And it seems to effortlessly happen for Lena Durham, and people can't figure out why. But people are still talking about Girls and Lena Dunham, so she clearly is hitting a nerve. And that's good of course. [/quote]

I don’t think her writing and ideas are mediocre. Girls was really good, even if the characters were grating at times (or most of the time).

I think she’d garner some level of hate no matter what because she unapologetically mediocre looking. I think it’s actually her defensiveness about it that’s triggering. It’s one thing to admit that you’re unapologetic for not being everyone’s cup of tea, but another to get super mad that everyone isn’t falling all over themselves to disagree with you. And that’s the vibe I get from her.[/quote]
