Dos this movie trigger snowflakes?


There's a lot of politically incorrect humour in this movie. I mean Liberals went ballistic when Trump did that impression of the disabled reporter, but to be honest, a lot of the humour in this that is aimed towards spastics is much more offensive. Well, by today standards anyway.

shutup douchebag.

That'll be a "yes" then.

reply

wrong. i'm not triggered by the movie but by your stupid attempt to inject politics into it

reply

Sounds like you're triggered to me. Did you attend the woman's march?

reply

No, he got disinvited when he left the toilet seat up.

reply

I completely agree with you. Him posting that just proves he is a d-bag in real life.

reply

Explain.

reply

Oh it is so offensive. lol. Most of the people who are disabled are good friends with the Farrely Brothers.

reply

I don't think they enjoy movies or watch them.

reply

Yeah. I am suddenly reminded of the part where Healy says, "I work with *******." and Mary asks, "Isn't that politically incorrect?". Then Healy says, "Well nobody's gonna tell me who I can and can't work with."
Wow! This movie was nominated for best motion picture comedy at the Golden Globes! A movie in today's world, if it had that much politically incorrect stuff in it, wouldn't get nominated for that!

Quite honestly, I’m surprised the perpetually offended crowd hasn’t tried to “cancel” this movie yet.

Give it time. The book burning Left is just getting started..

reply

Aren't Republicans the ones banning books in schools? Asking for a friend.

reply

No that's always been the Left. Let your special friend know..

reply

Only books like the ones showing boys giving and receiving blowjobs. It's too bad school boards don't include anyone intelligent enough to withdraw those books voluntarily. The necessity to get rid of them shouldn't have ever arisen in the first place.

reply

The republicans are asking for pornographic material to be removed from elementary school libraries. If you equate that with banning books, maybe turn yourself in to the police before you harm a child?

reply

To kill a Mockingbird is Pornography? What about Animal Farm? The Scarlett Letter? Fahrenheit 451?

reply

Are you stupid? Or are you intentionally trying to derail the original point by pretending to be stupid? You know damn well those aren't the books I'm talking about.

I'm all for free speech, but people like you need to shut the fuck up already. Your bad faith comments don't help anything.

reply

No, I think the only one being stupid here is you. You say you're all for free speech, well, obviously not....

reply

"Book-banners, after all, insist that the entire community should see things their way, and only their way. When a book is banned, a whole set of thoughts is locked behind the assertion that there is only one valid set of values, one valid set of beliefs, one valid perception of the world. It's a scary idea, especially in a society which has been built on the ideas of free choice and free thought."

According to a google search I did Fahrenheit 451 was banned from school libraries in Florida in 1987 but was overturned later due to it being found unconstitutional. I could not find any recent cases though.

This movie made me laugh more than I ever laughed my entire life.

reply

I sure hope so! I love this movie. I never think to put it on, but whenever I catch it I always laugh.
