And then having Dumbledore have a past love affair with Grindelwald is even worse. Basically Dumbledore was in love with wizard Hitler.


+1


I enjoyed the books but I agree with this. I also don't get why anyone would send their kids to Hogwarts. The teachers are abusive. The kids are bullied (to the point of significant injury and almost death) and no one does anything about it.


We might need a spinoff thread, but you're right. Slytherin is basically institutionalized bullying.

I was the Lin Manuel poster. My thoughts about him have nothing to do with race.


I'm brown and I agree re: Lin Manuel Miranda.


I love Hamilton and he was by far the weakest performer of the original cast. He had strong theater kid energy, which is super annoying. And all of his songs are starting to sound the same. Encanto is like a bargain bin version of the Hamilton score.


Exactly - all his songs in all the plays and shows sound the exact same.


He’s the weakest singer by far so that’s probably why, but I wouldn’t say LMM was a weak performer in Hamilton. He had great stage presence.

Golden Goose sneakers are ugly and uncomfortable and I judge my friends for wearing them.

No! Give me old any day! The new woke stuff sucks!


The old stuff was racist and misogynistic and disgusting. Have you watched any of that shit recently? there have been several we had to turn off because they were so inappropriate for young children.


For example?? I don't get it. You are really stretching for content now.

I just saw Hamilton for the first time (the 2016 cast). It was OK, but the music was underwhelming. I remember some of the people and thought they had presence (particularly the actors who played Jefferson, Eliza and Burr), but I don't remember any of the songs, except for the King George one.


BURN - the only song worth listening to in the whole show

All the Desperate Housewives look eye-bleach level horrible. You'd have to take a real TLC deep dive to find comparable level of ugly.

You’re the racist one and nuts.


Now we can't have opinions about not liking a super fast rapper with all the songs sounding exactly the same (LMM)??????
sheesh YOU are far to sensitive to live a normal life

+1 on Schitts Creek. I was falling asleep on it. Never got the appeal.

All the American cooking competitions are terrible.

If you don't care enough about good food and need to make it into a use-shoe-polish-to-make-something-edible-in-two-minutes competitive sport to 'add interest', then why are you watching a cooking show in the first place?

Also, I don't want to hear the sob story about your grandma.

Building elaborate shapes about unedible fondant and plywood is not baking.

And finally, use different words to describe various emotions, rather than just shout louder.
