        “Joyce has only recently started to grasp the concept of “slang.””
        Actually, “bouncing your eyes” means that one is supposed to condition himself from not staring at his or her object of affection, which is lustful, since lusting is bad. Apparently the term comes from the fact that our eyes have a tendency to gravitate towards things that sexually please us but since it’s rude to stare at a woman’s chest, you should immediately look away a soon as you catch yourself doing that, thus creating a “bouncing” effect with your eyes.

      Bouncing of the eyes comes from the contemporary men’s purity movement (see Every Man’s Battle) where men who don’t want to look lustfully on a woman train themselves to reflexively bounce their eyes away from eye candy.

    The completely ineffectiveness of hitting on Sarah aside, you’d think Joe would know better than to hit on girls in a group where they can back each other up. It’d probably be easier to work on them alone.

    Unless he’s that good that he can convince multiple girls at once.

      I’m not even convinced he’s really hitting on them (as in actually hoping to get one on a date) so much as just doing his usual thing. You gotta figure if a guy spends as much time chasing skirts as Joe has, it kinda becomes a reflex.

      Well yes except that is the creeper way to do it. If you are not a gross, rapey ass you do not intentionally target girls with the goal of making them feel less able to say no (ie where they can ‘back each other up’)

      I am not saying to never hit on a girl who is alone, but your reasons should not be ‘oh boy without her friends she will be less resistant to my advances,’ that is how an abuser thinks.

        That is, of course, not how Joe’s thinking. Joe’s thinking, “If she says no, maybe one of her friends will say yes. Better yet, maybe she’ll say yes and her friends will also say yes.”

      He didn’t say “hi” though, he just ogled her.

      Silently staring at someone while they eat is something only Dina is allowed to do without it seeming creepy.

        He said “ladies”, which is a form of hi, just a bit awkward. If you really pay attention to what he says and does in the comic, he isn’t as bad as he’s assumed to be.
        It’s because right from the beginning he’s been the womanizer stereotype. Still, he has a much better attitude towards women then Danny (who presumes to have better judgement about them than they do and prefers his girlfriend to remain a personal fantasy than a real person).

Here's an entertaining cite at the bottom of the first page
The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the
government cannot prosecute Judge Dugan because she is entitled to judicial immunity for her official acts. Immunity is not a defense to the prosecution to be determined later by a jury or court; it is an absolute bar to the prosecution at the outset. See Trump v. United States,
603 U.S. 593, 630 (2024).

Where did Hollywood go so wrong? I thought movies were supposed to be an escape from reality, a chance to put your worries aside and not have to think about any underlying ideas or concepts. Well, not anymore. theonion.com/you-can...

You Can’t Even Watch A Movie Anymore Without Seeing Some Theme Explored
I’ve loved movies ever since I was a little kid. Just stepping into that dark theater, with the smell of fresh popcorn, was like being transported to a whole other world. It used to be so magical. But now I’m thinking about boycotting movies altogether. Why? Because I can’t seem to watch one anymore without […]

It's not a new argument, of course, but Chesterton dismissed it effectively in 1908. "You will hear everlastingly... this argument that the rich man cannot be bribed. The fact is, of course, that the rich man is bribed; he has been bribed already. That is why he is a rich man."

Who can forget the Swiss-Austrian Union, or its famous capital - Istanbul.
AI generated ad by a company called Travello showing the 10 most visited cities in Europe, except the cities are hilariously poorly placed. London is in Wales, Paris is in Ireland, Rome is in France, Rom (yes like Rome but without an E) is in Spain, Barcelona is in Morocco, Prague is in Germany, Vienna is in Italy, Istanbul is in Austria, Milan is in Libya, and Antalya is correctly shown as in Turkey but is in the wrong place. Also a few of the borders like Switzerland and Austria or Hungary and Slovenia are missing.

wilbur, savvy enough to know he's in a comic strip but still not a great actor, awkwardly lifts a muffin up into frame so that we, the audience, understand that he has a muffin right now, which is very important narratively, but he's not really selling it well as an organic, human action
