She doesn't like Jim Carrey anymore.
Her post is titled Washington Post Hails Unhinged Jim Carrey as a 'philosopher we didn't know we needed.'
If one is a washed up celebrity with no hope for furthering an acting career, there is only one option for redemption available: Self-promotion, with a wildly healthy dose of hatred for conservatives. But that hatred can now count as a philosophy.Her opinion of Jim Carrey is not based on the article at Washington Post. She cites Carrey's latest tweets.
“The GOP and WH have become a sinister conclave of souless traitors, liars, and thieves - a gangrene we must remove so democracy can live. #killthebill.”He shows his painting of Trump kissing Putin's behind. I laughed just reading that.
Comedians. Canadians. Honestly, does anyone pay any attention? This describes precisely what we avoided. No details supporting conclusions, just raw emotion.
Comedians don't have to be intelligent.
And we're not required to be offended.
The painting is actually hilarious. I'm still laughing at the idiot imagining him painting it. Pure Carrey. The kissing mouth on Trump is drawn the same way that Kurt Vonnegut drew an asshole on the back cover of my paperback copy of Sirens of Titan, as an asterisk. They're actually arguing over there on Carrey's Twitter. Come on! What would even be the point?
Corinne Weaver uses the title of the Washington Post article, "What is Jim Carrey trying to tell us?" To respond, "The answer is in his vile tweets." Corinne goes into a lot of detail about why Carrey is so empty and so bad and how absurdly incomplete the Washington Post article is. She has a problem with Carrey and with the fawning Washington Post article about him.
I found the Washington Post article interesting. It describes Carrey beginning to lose himself with the Truman show. After that unreality poured though his reality to the extent that they blend. Then the Kaufman film, Man on the Moon. (WP has 'Man in the Moon) and his emersion into the role made his situation worse.
The article is written respectfully and it has two videos, one about Truman Show and another about Kaufman. Comments at WP are unusually interesting too. When they're not being vapidly hostile.
Poor Carrey.
I really liked his comedy. He's an extremely uniquely funny man. Too bad American success ruined him. Too bad he lost himself.
Both of these posts are interesting for contrasting points of view.

Did the WashPo post talk about how he gave his girlfriend STD's and cocaine driving her to suicide? It's being litigated.
Hillarywood- filled with creepy STDs and insular brain rot.
I never cared for the man.
Me either. Never saw the charm except I really did enjoy "Liar Liar". That's what shot him up the fame ladder and it was probably the last time he had a realistic view of himself. I saw it on a plane and laughed my ass off but it would have been just as good without the constant crazy facial expressions. He goes too far; it's unnecessary. In the credits there are outtakes and Swoosie Kurtz calls him an "overactor" which he good naturedly laughs about. It's true.
Seems like if you get famous enough you can "build your own bubble" and live in it forever and/or until you fall from favor and they pop your bubble leaving you all naked and unprotected after years of ridiculous unearned coddling. I almost feel sorry for people in this condition but they built their own house of cards and really should have realized that it would fall.
About #killthebill; my local talk radio station was covering the tax bill at the noon hour news update. They played Chuck Schumer's comments about the bill being a bad idea because it didn't have Dem input yada yada yada. The moment the audio clip ended, the news reader went straight to the market update: "Dow now up 280 points". I laughed so hard, tears formed.
I am not yet tired of winning so let the winning continue.
Thanks, Trump!
He was good as the Riddler.
He ran off a string of three great comedies. There were a couple of decent dramatic roles, and then it started to fade. He never seemed all that stable. He'll probably blame the failures and chaos of his life on Trump and Republican tax policies. Maybe that will help him find peace.
