    This is why I haaaate “today I learned” posts sourced from a cheesy interview. Some exaggerated or even sarcastic statement gets spun into absolute truth and it’s pervasive

      A ton of times these high profile people will be giving a press conference or an impromptu interview to whoever and they take a ton of rapid fire questions. So many times someone will slip in a question like ‘do you think the end scene was symbolic of the protagonists suppressed desire to felate their grandma wearing a strapon?’ and they’re like ‘uh yeah sure I mean if you want to interpret it that way I guess’ then move on. Then the next day you see stories like ‘such and such actor said he wants to fuck his grandma’ and then it spirals from there. I just ignore pretty much everything I read these days tbh.
