I feel like Jeffrey Wells writes his articles deliberately to provoke responses like this. There’s a sort of self awareness to the douchiness of his writing, as if he understands that what he’s writing is moronic and also knows that most people will see it. I’ll admit it probably works in the sense that a lot of people will talk about it and link back to his site.

If you’re a blogger, scorn and disgust is just as valuable as respect and admiration, but much easier to acquire.

  If only there was another blogging website stocked with ~~writers~~ aggregators that used this provocative self awareness technique to garner views and comments.

This guy is obviously an industrial-strength douchebag who’s looking for attention. But I too feel that Hillary has a tendency to shout out her speeches, leaving any kind of nuance behind in a fit of Ethel Merman-style overkill. Calling it a “bray” is shitty and purposefully mean-spirited. But it WOULD be nice if she could find a more conversational tone sometimes. Trump, on the other hand, brays because he’s a jackass.

  It’s tough sometimes public speaking. I’m a guy and sometimes my ‘big’ voice can get away and almost turn to a yell. It’s not a yell, but force vs inflection get away and you can see people’s eyes start to freak. Thankfully I’ve learned to control it. But ugh..that was embarrassing in he beginning.

  Honestly, good on you that you learned to control your voice, and that you’re doing public speaking at all. I avoid this particular aspect of life like the plague.
  
  To the first point, I know exactly what you’re talking about. My Dad was 6'3 (at least, I never measured him,) and probably about 250 pounds. He used to proudly compare himself to a brick wall. He never did learn to control his voice, though. Our family was best friends with another family, and when they had a baby, we would all go over together to meet the new arrival. My poor Dad would scare the living crap out of anyone in the house under five, and we would all leave, dejected.
  
  I always felt he just got a raw deal on this score, but then again I was used to it, where the other kids weren’t.
  
  After a few years, happily, it became a family joke.

No criticism — I just don’t get it.

In other words, he has no idea what he’s talking about, but he’s still going to air his opinions?

He ought to try Kinja, I bet he’d love it.

  I don’t get it either. I mean, if I were a lesbian, I would probably sleep with hot guys, because men are hot. Also I have it on good authority that men like lesbians sexually, so that’s a big bonus. I don’t get what all these lesbians are doing sleeping with women, it doesn’t make any sense.

..Male Film Critic Shares Thoughts On How He Would Lesbian, ..

so Lesbian is now a verb? is it transitive or intransitive? (i’m guessing the former)

  I can’t tell whether it’s possible for “to lesbian” to have a direct object. If it can’t have a direct object, it’s intransitive.

I need to express this carefully but honestly, so here goes.

Oh brother. If this guy were a bigger asshole, he’d have an event horizon. It’s hard to call Jeffrey Wells a film critic, even in the era of the user review, when his blog consistently uses movies as a thin pretext for nursing old resentments and courting new ones.

He really makes you appreciate the impartial eye and self-effacing tact of Armond White.

  Let’s not forget his stalking of actress Vinessa Shaw during the filming of 3:10 to Yuma. He lobbied director James Mangold to see if Mangold could provde some nude shots of the actress from the set. That’s nudes,not news. He also has a habit of bitching about people who sneeze, snore, or belch in airports while traveling to see free movies on the studio dime.

  Whichever of those is code for “asshole” in your personal lexicon.

noun
noun: bray; plural noun: brays
1. the loud, harsh cry of a donkey or mule.
Obviously what he meant was that Hillary shouldn’t pretend to be too much of a democrat since the democratic party mascot is a donkey. He also wants her to trumpet like a republican elephant and appeal to centrists. Everyone around here is so sensitive all the time...
