Isn't the elbow squeeze the same as the shoulder rub? To check for magic underwear?

2024-09-25 19:16:06 +0000 UTCThat could be good. Cthulhu as Darcy and Dracula as Wickham. Holmes replaces one of the Bennett sisters.
Uriah Jackson
2024-08-11 07:41:26 +0000 UTCLove you guys but you need to actually read P&P. Mr. Darcy was definitely supposed to be handsome!

2024-08-10 00:22:44 +0000 UTCI feel like the problem with Collins is they wanted him to come across as slightly creepy but Mormons already have a fucked idea of what’s appropriate when trying to get a partner so they made him so misogynistic and possessive that to anyone who’s not a religious conservative he comes across like the kind of guy who’s about to publish a manifesto online then go to the nearest Hooters with an AR-15

2024-08-08 17:18:00 +0000 UTCwhat i hear is that since pride and Predjudice is public domain i can make a movie based on this work and add Dracula, Sherlock Holmes and Cthulhu
Markus Nävergård
2024-08-08 16:29:32 +0000 UTCDid they explain why? I would've figured it was just "because I prefer it" since there's not a logical reason (I.e. "graphic" doesn't use a soft "g"). I just looked it up and apparently it's a reference to the "Jif" peanut butter commercials, but that just makes me want to use the hard "g" more, because that corny corpo shit can go fuck itself. If he just said "Because I think it sounds nicer" it probably wouldn't change the way I typically read it, but I would respect it.
Markus D
2024-08-07 04:24:57 +0000 UTCOMG yes and they just have to fight for who gets to be Noah!
Sham Hunter
2024-08-05 07:44:47 +0000 UTCI haven't seen it, but I do know that I've seen clips and recall commercials and people referencing it and not a thing of it I've been exposed to has inclined me to want to see it. Glad to know I'm not missing anything.
Spiked Nalgene
2024-08-05 02:20:01 +0000 UTCI was a hard g person until the creator of the format explained why it’s pronounced with a soft g.
Oboewan
2024-08-05 00:13:31 +0000 UTCIt's a slightly later time period, but I prefer "Maurice" by E.M. Forster. It's still all white people, but it's about a gay guy being like "this class and social expectation stuff is all bullshit, I'm going to live in the country with my working-class boyfriend."
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:20:39 +0000 UTCNo, Johnny Depp doesn't seem to be a rapist, people just get carried away with misinterpreting the Amber Heard stuff...
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:17:37 +0000 UTCI think it's important to realize that we have those things for dogs and not most other animals because they're the most common animals that humans have for companions.
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:14:54 +0000 UTCI have a big problem with the soft "g" because to me, that's just the "j" sound. And if something is supposed to have that sound, we should spell it with a "j".
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:13:13 +0000 UTCI know, every time someone says it, it makes me think "compound" rather than "congregation".
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:12:18 +0000 UTCIt's a lot of pretention, for one thing. This kind of belief that classical music is "good, real music for smart people".
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:11:41 +0000 UTCI watched it a long time ago now, but I remember thinking it was boring and vaguely uncomfortable. I can't think of a joke from it that really landed with me.
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:09:27 +0000 UTCI feel like this issue has been so ambivalent in all sorts of leftist communities, that as someone who didn't watch the trial, I don't feel confident on speaking about it because I genuinely have not been able to find a good rundown of just the EVIDENCE, and not opinions on it.
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:08:26 +0000 UTCI also know that the Murder on the Orient Express movie was boring as fuck, so I assumed the same about this one.
Markus D
2024-08-04 23:01:59 +0000 UTCI AM NOT ALONE!
Markus Nävergård
2024-08-04 11:38:29 +0000 UTCIt's sad that I can't decide if this movie or "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" was the worst P&P remake.
Uriah Jackson
2024-08-04 10:22:16 +0000 UTCNot at all. My housemate (at the time) and I both despised it. I walked out halfway through, he stayed just to be able to brag that he endured it.
Uriah Jackson
2024-08-04 10:17:14 +0000 UTCI'm throwing a fondue party for my parent's 50th anniversary this year in honor of their first date lol
LisaLisa
2024-08-03 16:17:12 +0000 UTCIt's a Mormon Batman adopting all of his sidekicks at the same time.
Matt Eldritch
2024-08-02 16:49:23 +0000 UTCI liked Matt Smith's performance in the movie version.
Matt Eldritch
2024-08-02 16:47:00 +0000 UTCIDK, but he did support Roman Polanski and dated an underaged Winona Ryder (she was 17 and he was 26) so it doesn't feel out of the realm of possibility.
Matt Eldritch
2024-08-02 16:46:30 +0000 UTCI'm surprised that you guys liked Death on the Nile. I figured that due to starring a zionist-storm trooper, anti-vaxxers and sexual predators you would've had it for a monthly secular bonus episode.
Matt Eldritch
2024-08-02 16:40:09 +0000 UTCAs someone who watched the entire trial Depp v. Heard trial, I was uncomfortable with Cara calling Johnny Depp a rapist so casually. The evidence presented showed it was obvious that Heard was lying, going so far as to doctor photos to make it appear as if she was bruised when she was not. Depp seems like a troubled individual, but there is more evidence that he was the victim of DV in that relationship than the abuser. I am a staunch feminist, and part of that fight for equality means we need to support victims of domestic violence whether they men or women. *Edited to say I really like Cara and I don't think she said this maliciously, but it did make me uncomfortable.

2024-08-01 15:54:09 +0000 UTCWhen I went to college in Utah, most of the mormon girls got the 2 year elementary education degree so they could homeschool their kids after the guys got back from their mission. Really weird stuff.
Toast
2024-07-31 16:25:48 +0000 UTCam i the only oneint he world that did not like Napoleon Dynamite?
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-31 15:38:44 +0000 UTCme playing WASP animal(fuck likea beast) for my niece and nephew, which is a thing i done. i play metal for them
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-31 13:24:41 +0000 UTCOk so it's not like an orphanage
Off-label Botanist
2024-07-31 12:56:37 +0000 UTCIt always seemed obvious to me that the people who are concerned enough with their kids/pets/plants to put special effort into their care, naturally tend to wind up with good results. The music doesn't matter in itself, but the atittude will matter overall.
Greg Willickers
2024-07-31 12:17:23 +0000 UTCYes, Cara, this /is/ the riveting premium content we come for, and we /are/ thrilled, thank you.
Spiked Nalgene
2024-07-31 05:04:02 +0000 UTCI don't think so? I think it was just the did mad lib and they got confused. But hell if I know, I try not to follow that stuff too closely.
Spiked Nalgene
2024-07-31 05:01:40 +0000 UTCThat would be a funny April fools day episode or something.
Spiked Nalgene
2024-07-31 04:54:11 +0000 UTCI feel you. All the "Baby Einstein" classical music was pure bullshit.
Julie LaVoice
2024-07-31 04:45:51 +0000 UTChonestly, what is this belief that classical music will change dog behaviour, make plants grow better and make kids smarter? what is that stupid shit. not like classical music was any better than modern music. Mozart made a whole song named " lick my arse"
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-31 04:30:13 +0000 UTCthe las Vegas marriage thing is so stupid. Just let the horny kids fuck, that wouls solve the problem
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-31 04:25:24 +0000 UTCJust a local Mormon congregation
Peter H.
2024-07-31 03:27:47 +0000 UTCWtf is a Mormon Ward?
Off-label Botanist
2024-07-31 02:37:13 +0000 UTCI know of at least one series that's Napoleonic dragons, it's just missing the "techno" parts.
Denise Huston
2024-07-30 22:39:10 +0000 UTCI read it, and it was too much Jane Austen, not enough zombies.
Denise Huston
2024-07-30 22:38:04 +0000 UTCI mean...I feel like putting a hat on an alligator would be baller AF, but he would definitely not keep it on.
Denise Huston
2024-07-30 22:37:13 +0000 UTCThe Gruffalo and The Gruffalos child, both them books I've read many dozen times. Our little one had one of them read to him every night for at least a year. My wife did not even need the books in the end, she knew them all off by heart.
Michael Champion
2024-07-30 20:47:39 +0000 UTCCara is correct by using the soft ‘g’ sound in GIF. Heath needs to accept he’s objectively incorrect and apologize to Cara.
Oboewan
2024-07-30 19:51:49 +0000 UTCI think the thing with it is that it was progressive *for it’s time* but is still a story about privileged white people in a time of immense exploitation. It’s incredibly overrated
Zach Van Stanley
2024-07-30 18:18:49 +0000 UTCI realize this might be a Mandela effect reference, but still felt the need to chime in
Zach Van Stanley
2024-07-30 18:15:06 +0000 UTCNo, op got it right. I know the book
Zach Van Stanley
2024-07-30 18:14:13 +0000 UTC"Fetch" back then was mormon substitute for fuck 😂
Dustin Dugger
2024-07-30 17:54:14 +0000 UTCyeah, like every second month or something like that
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-30 17:32:44 +0000 UTCI hate it. It's SO EASY TO NOT SEXUALLY ASSAULT/HARASS PEOPLE. Dudes, stop!
Markus D
2024-07-30 16:51:48 +0000 UTCSTOP TORTURING CARA!
Victor Field
2024-07-30 16:47:36 +0000 UTCI say gif that way too, Cara. We're right! 😤
Stella
2024-07-30 16:32:18 +0000 UTCI'm a little surprised when people say this, because I feel like she's on the show as much as her schedule probably allows!
Markus D
2024-07-30 15:13:04 +0000 UTC100% agreed. Some people find them cute, but they genuinely just make me sad. Same with similarly unfortunate breeds like chowchows and various bulldogs.
Markus D
2024-07-30 15:07:28 +0000 UTCam i the only oen that find it insane that we make human like things but soley for dogs? like we have dog groomers/hairdressers,tailors, music, art and special food, we do not treat most other animals that well. * looks at alligators*
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-30 14:59:39 +0000 UTCyeah, so many of these guys turns out to be bad. Also, was Johnny depp a rapist?
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-30 14:58:03 +0000 UTCSeriously, what's the Patreon goal to get Cara on as a permanent cohost? I'd increase my pledge
Help, I'm trapped in a podcast factory!
2024-07-30 13:22:58 +0000 UTCThat's horrible.
Julie LaVoice
2024-07-30 11:42:29 +0000 UTCBetter than Bridget Jones
Lora Forsyth
2024-07-30 10:25:39 +0000 UTCI'd like to see a GAM where it is totally guest hosts. Cara Santa Maria, Marsh, and either Tom or Cecil. Will I see it happen?
Rick Wright
2024-07-30 08:00:05 +0000 UTCThe police dog at the chapel wasn't a dobie. It was a German Shepherd, the breed they teased would responded violently to some tracks on the "Wagner for the Vicious" CD. I feel like Eli could have had a lot of fun with what seemed to be the only decent gag in the whole damn movie.
Araya Frellin Sunshine
2024-07-30 07:14:27 +0000 UTCHe has been accused of sexuall assult by a number of women
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-30 04:56:30 +0000 UTCthe fact that some guys would belive that women molt but men do not is baffeling, our anatomy is not that wildly different. if women molted skin,men would also molt skin
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-30 04:56:00 +0000 UTCYou mean the Berenstein Bears.
Detective Popcorn
2024-07-30 04:34:31 +0000 UTC"Paul Rudyard Kipling" just sailed past, unappreciated in it's time.
Chubby Bunny
2024-07-30 03:55:30 +0000 UTCHow about reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies?
Detective Popcorn
2024-07-30 03:39:31 +0000 UTCAs a parent, there are indeed books I have read dozens of times. The Berenstain’s B book, anyone?
Laura Lusby
2024-07-30 02:58:32 +0000 UTCOh, fuck. Now I have to look up what Neil Gaiman did that Eli's alluding to. I knew he and Amanda Palmer aren't together anymore. Yikes.
Julie LaVoice
2024-07-30 01:16:38 +0000 UTCI know Cara did 9/11 but never reading Pride and Prejudice is truly unforgivable.
Lora Forsyth
2024-07-29 23:21:11 +0000 UTCI want to see “James Joyce’s Ulysses: A Mormon Movie.”
Patrick Carr
2024-07-29 23:18:19 +0000 UTCHail Seitan!
Zach Van Stanley
2024-07-29 22:24:23 +0000 UTCY’all should check out Mark of the Beastro in Salt Lake
Zach Van Stanley
2024-07-29 22:23:18 +0000 UTCSomeone somewhere would definitely read a Napoleonic techno-fantasy or whatever. Like if Jules Verne did a Napoleonic sci-fi novel.
Matt
2024-07-29 22:22:27 +0000 UTCThis violation of Pride and Prejudice is evedince of the problem of Evil
Tamylyn
2024-07-29 21:07:33 +0000 UTCI'm with Eli on the more than 24 times for some books
DataAngel
2024-07-29 21:01:28 +0000 UTCAll these Ed Kemper references are even creeper when you know what he did to his mom('s head).
Rachel Manente
2024-07-29 20:52:59 +0000 UTCCara is right. Pugs are sad creatures. their existence is a testament to mans cruelty. We made them into what they are. they are poor inbred animals with severe deformities that we cultivate because we find them cute. It is horrible honestly and i will argue agaisnt Eli untill we both die on this point. Seriously, pet breeding is horrible
Markus Nävergård
2024-07-29 20:05:47 +0000 UTCThe “monthly peel” videos are great! What a great way to show how *most* cis men completely don’t understand women’s anatomy
Zach Van Stanley
2024-07-29 20:04:47 +0000 UTCErr, Cara….It’s Cif. Duh. 😜
Abigail Hurley
2024-07-29 19:25:00 +0000 UTCColin Firth isn't hot? Your most controversial (and wrong) take Eli!
Kristin
2024-07-29 19:21:45 +0000 UTCShe is definitely a masochist.
Jay Voigt
2024-07-29 18:48:30 +0000 UTCCara!!! ❤️ I enjoy her takes on GAM so much!
Jay Voigt
2024-07-29 18:47:06 +0000 UTCCara I've read books dozens of times. I had a tedious job and limited audio book access in the early-mid-aughts
Denise Huston
2024-07-29 18:45:13 +0000 UTCTeam Cara, the actor playing Darcy is just British, not hot.
Diana
2024-07-29 18:24:46 +0000 UTCI went on a trek it sucked had to dress up in a bonnet and pretend to me a mom, sing hymns all day in the heat, do the “women’s pull,” and then they gave us a rooster and didn’t tell us we would be slaughtering it and eating it at the end—great time 😑
KayJayO
2024-07-29 18:24:46 +0000 UTCI wonder if the eyelash needle separating trick thingy is a weird Mormon/Utah thing, because in high school I had dance before school and saw girls doing that like every day when they put their makeup on always freaked me out—like I saw a girl use a thumb tack once
KayJayO
2024-07-29 18:17:24 +0000 UTCYay, Cara’s back! But will she return after this episode? Now taking bets.
Taru Tikkanen
2024-07-29 17:52:48 +0000 UTCI must've blocked this movie out when it came out. I really wish the youth parties I went to were as awesome looking as they looked in the beginning of the movie.
Diana Sievert-Wood
2024-07-29 17:51:49 +0000 UTCThis movie needs to fuck itself so fucking hard. I am mad at in the name of literature. My friends and I watched this garbage. It's white on white heterosexual propaganda is what it is
