If you think that was funny, then you must piss your pants when Kate McKinnon is in the "Alien Abduction" skits or the "Black Jeopardy" ones are viewed.

That was funny bc of Ryan Gosling breaking up. Otherwise, its a perfect example of the formulaic rut they've been in for a long time. It's a standard "odd man out" sketch wherein a group of (usually 3) people/couples consists of two "normals" and one "odd." They do this over and over and over and over... That cake baking thing (Eddie Murphy did one when he returned a couple of years ago)., A recent one with Euphoria writers and 3 of them or normal and one is offering crazy ideas. A sketch with Pedro Pascal where everyone is at a restaurant and one of them gets treated very differently from the others. A maid of honor sketch where two people give normal toasts but a third gives an increasingly unhinged toast. And there's a typical "rotation" that takes place. Normal speaks, normal speaks, odd speaks *insert laughter at oddball*.

Once you see it you can't unsee it and it becomes shocking how often that go back to that well.

What about those who EMBRACE taboo-isms? We are dealing with people who invert social norms deliberately because they feel it gives them power.

There aren't enough of them to account for hundreds of mentions of "jerky" in the emails. Even among taboos, cannibalism is especially egregious. We've never unearthed that kind of widespread, underground "cannibalism market" and taboo-breakers have been around for a long time. With ritual cannibalism, it never consists of more than a few people at most. And none of these people are dumb enough to think they just have to replace one word with another and gmail will keep them safe.

It doesn't wash.

The worst era (outside of Prince, who isn't rock)

Prince spanned several genres and rock was one. Let's Go Crazy is a rock song. Then add covers of Queen, CCR, Foo Fighters and Jimi Hendrix (wasn't the Dylan arrangement)? Rock halftime show.

At this point I doubt even Taylor Swift can get the gig. Blonde hair and blue eyes? Nope.

Steelers / Rams '80

No reason why that team needs to be put on the defensive after what they just did.

Jesus just get a new fricking quarterback already.
