in A Moving Train
Like many things I read I get an “aha” moment or a “wtf” moment. 

This is particularly interesting.

    I'll feel much better while watching siblings engage in incest in the final season of Game of Thrones.  Thanks HBO.

    Sounds like a very good idea.

    you know, people gripe all the time about "oh, who cares, they're fucking overpaid wealthy people whining about their jobs" but these are real people with real emotions. this was long overdue. especially as an advocate for women.

    So a woman takes the part of a porn star but it is the fake weiner that bothers her?  Did she not read the script prior?  Does she not know what a porn star does and that she would probably have to act the part?  Is she being forced to do the job she auditioned for?  Is she forced to stay?

    who in their right fucking mind would think this is a bad idea?

    Who said it was a bad idea?  I'm asking if someone was forced to do something that they didn't want to.  I'm asking if there were unknown expectations.

    How do you think any of those questions are even relevant to the vast majority of HBO actors, if any at all? I think you don't understand the purpose of this fully.

    Pretty simple.  What if the actress wanted to do it? Isn't that more empowering than telling her she can't?  Does she not know what she wants?

    So you go from "a fake weiner bothers her, did she not read the script" to "what if she wanted to do it."

    Yeah, he has no clue what this is even for, obviously.
    Unsung, try reading a real article or something instead of trying to get us to explain the basics to you.

    Which defines a troll. If everyone stopped responding it would stop. Easier said than done.

    No. That is not at all why people call you that. If it were, we'd all be calling everyone that, lol. It's the "to get a rise out of people" part that matters.
