because i had to post avclub wank sooner or later...
The Onion AV Club now allows comments on most of its articles, interviews, and reviews. You can see where this is going already.

Today's tasty bit of wank is about Tom Cruise and Scientology. Apparently, the German Army won't let Cruise's new movie film on a base there because he's a Scientologist. The German government classifies Scientology as a cult and um... well, I'm not sure how that figures into the movie, but the point is, there is lots of wank in the comments. Unfortunately, you can't link to individual comments, so you'll have to warm up your scroll finger.

Is Scientology a cult?

Are the Germans being ~~just like the Nazis~~ intolerant?

Wait, Beck is a Scientologist?

Posted here because it didn't seem fandom-y enough for Fandom Wank.

Really late edit: Germany clarifies its position on Cruise filming.

	Oh come on, invading Poland is so last century. Next time, we'll invade the following countries, in this order: a) UK b) US c) Switzerland c) will break us, but we will try, damnit. This country has to have a weak point. Somewhere. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
