YOU, A TOTAL DUMBASS: House of Leaves is soooo hard to read, what a challenging approach to printed text, how revolutionary and bold SAGE OF THE TALMUD: Huh? I wasn't listening to you, I was busy reading four layers of commentary in two different scripts on one page

The only stupid Republican scandal re Obama I actually care about is Obama bowing before the Saudi king. The American president is superior to any monarch in the world by virtue of not being a monarch

The Odyssey is a nice example of the problem with every effort to "understand" Trumpers. There's nothing to "understand" here: this man has no idea what happens in Homer's epic, he's an arrogant dimwit with a made-up version in his head that he uses as an excuse to be weird and racist. That's it.

Matt Walsh complains that Nolan brought his obsession with nonlinear story telling to the Odyssey, undercutting the original's narrative. The defenders of western civilisation, folks.

Matt Walsh tweets: Nolan's obsessions with the non-linear storytelling gimmick really hurts this film. It jumps around so much, and spends so little time on any one particular moment or scene, that you never really feel like Odysseus is on an epic journey spanning many years. When he makes it home, you never feel like he's been gone for 20 years. The film does not capture the grandeur and scope of the original epic. That's why it feels rushed and too long simultaneously. The movie comes off like a rough draft. Nolan was searching for the actual story but never quite found it.

It was Soros who funded the bogus study in the Lancet and told his minions to parrot it nonstop."

New York won a championship? well, how long could they realistically celebrate? surely they have a bedtime
