Inconvenient Truths Society Doesn't Want Us To Accept

1: Global Warming

2: Pizza is not a form of pie

3: Arguments for letting pandas die out as a species work equally well as arguments for euthanizing the disabled, and they're both soulless rubbish

4: Paget Brewster is a marvel, and she was wasting her time on Criminal Minds

Sredni Vashtar · 2017-02-05 19:16:25

A surprisingly large proportion of the cast of Criminal Minds seems to be "talented actors slumming it," honestly.

But you are right regardless.

Crystal · 2017-02-05 19:27:28

Agreed, with both.

And now I'm thinking about how Matthew Gray Gubler can really own a super-educated, awkward, sincere criminologist, it's just a shame his character is, well, what it is. Not sure if you had him in mind though, plus I only know of him because of Criminal Minds.

Joel De La Fuente is also a marvel.

sufficiently deep-dish pizza might be a pie

or a cake

Salix Babylonika · 2017-02-05 21:15:07

it is a pie in shape but culinarily they could not be farther apart

Americans have no right to dictate what a pie is. :|

Yarrun XIX · 2017-02-05 22:32:57

Isn't there a song from an award winning play titled "The Worst Pies (Are) in London"?

Princess Alice · 2017-02-06 00:52:27

I can accept "pizza is not a pie", but "hot dog is not a sandwich" remains bullshit

Sweeney Todd, yes. And those were meat pies.

Fossilmaiden · 2017-02-06 01:03:55

I mean, it was a penny dreadful, the worst everything is in London in those.

Section42L · 2017-02-06 01:06:07

I mourn Pauley Perrette on NCIS, too.

Your people literally call this pudding

Obā-san · 2017-02-13 15:02:55

here in america we call those "charcoal briquettes"

Fossilmaiden · 2017-02-13 17:10:55

They aren't burnt. They just look like that because the main ingredient is blood.

Princess Alice · 2017-02-13 17:11:58

Yes, that makes it better. 🙄

Odradek · 2017-02-13 17:17:43

I've always said there's only one reason a whole group of people would live on an island that gets that little sun

Fossilmaiden · 2017-02-13 17:18:08

It is a delicious blood pudding.

I thought @Crystal was supposed to be the one super into blood here

Crystal · 2017-02-13 18:20:29

She's just a poser.

3: Arguments for letting pandas die out as a species work equally well as arguments for euthanizing the disabled, and they're both soulless rubbish

Pandas can't consent to euthanization (they don't even know what it is), However, disabled people can.

However, involuntary euthanization is basically murder.

Do they randomly appear when you kick a sink?

Not all of them

Imipolex G · 2017-02-13 19:38:02

Some pandas can consent

That's what I argued, but the jury didn't seem to agree.

Imipolex G · 2017-02-13 19:42:08

I knew someone would say that, probably you.

I agree.

Joel De La Fuente is also a marvel.

You also had Mandy Patinkin, Keith Carradine and Tim Curry at different points. Carradine as "Frank" was particularly skin-crawly.

Odradek · 2017-02-14 02:32:31

Well yes but they have all had careers beyond Criminal Minds

Although Paget Brewster was a main cast member in Season 6 of Community and Joel De La Fuente is Inspector Kido in Man In The High Castle also I just looked him up and he was in SVU not Criminal Minds WHATEVER

Sredni Vashtar · 2017-02-14 02:43:52

I'm just saying: Criminal Minds is where solid-to-exceptional actors go either when their career has hit a slump in the US or they've scarcely received deserved recognition in general.

Klinotaxis · 2017-02-14 02:48:24

that was kind of awesome
