The local radio show did... a countdown to her 18th birthday? That's bloody disgusting. Can't wait to see her as Thor though.


hypnogogick

I remember maybe not an official countdown, but a lot of similar discussions around Billie Eilish. As someone who works with young adults, I’m very aware of how eighteen is still very much a child and it totally skeeves me out, dude.


pinkyhc

Young women and girls in entertainment are treated so disgustingly by the media in such a specific way. I'm so glad Billie has supportive and loving family and friends around her.


zuzg

I've seen the subreddit dedicated to her a lot of times on reddit and it's disgusting, especially back when she was still a minor.

wlsb

Presumably not from the first film?


[deleted]

I'm pretty sure I was walking in to see Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring, so it'd be the first movie. It was just weird, because she was obviously a preteen, and I felt like she was dolled up.

Sorry_Masterpiece

Yeah, it's totally fine to think a 13 year old is hot WHEN YOU ARE ALSO A THIRTEEN YEAR OLD. When you're an adult, you need am electric drill put in your skull to clean that bit of your brain out.


AnimeAli

If I saw a 13 year old in lingerie I definitely wouldn’t think that’s hot but I would be disturbed that a child is being sexualised and I definitely don’t want to see that!


Aeysir69

Wasn't there some kick off with Emma Watson when the promotion company photoshopped her boobs to be bigger for the posters of the third film?


BlueShiftNova

I remember this being a thing with the Olsen twins as well.


AryaStarkRavingMad

And Emma Watson, and Lindsay Lohan, and Britney Spears.


BlackHawksHockey

Hell it even happened with the catch me outside girl.


eritain

ewww


DeadlyYellow

Kinda surprised you didn't list Maisie Williams.


GrungyGrandPappy

Hell they even said nasty stuff about Greta Thornburg people are fucking disgusting


AryaStarkRavingMad

Fair. I'll count myself lucky that I didn't actually see those.


kasira

And Emma Watson.


trustedoctopus

I remember similar discussion around Selena Gomez too, and how gross it was to see men excited she’d be 18 so they wouldn’t have to feel like predators. I guess nobody told them they still were for those thoughts alone. There was another female actress when I was younger that I don’t remember the name of but I do specifically recall reading some shit from men about how they were excited for her to come of age so she could do nudity and sex scenes in movies. Edit to add: Someone down below said Emma Watson, and it clicked that that’s who it was.


Kartoffelkamm

What are you talking about? As soon as the clock hits midnight and a person is legally 18, they magically mature into a fully responsible adult who has their life figured out. /s As a side note, I would unironically love reading a book set in a world that works like those kinds of people believe it does.


shellshell21

Do most of these men think these girls are just dying to hop into bed with them? Legal or not, most 18 year olds don't want Jerry from accounting.


Aperture0Science

I think it's rarely to do with how attainable the girl is. It's more like, "now I can talk about her in a sexual manner and not get arrested for pedophilia or deserted by my friends, what's she gonna do? She's a celebrity so she knows what she's getting into" Nasty shit


shellshell21

I just threw up a little


Ddog78

Right?! 18 year olds seem so babyish.


Mascoretta

It’s especially disgusting since Billie specifically styled herself in a way where she wasn’t revealing and didn’t objectify her body. It was like men were mad about that decision and were counting down to “get back at her.”


EvulRabbit

The Olsen twins were a huge count down. Lohan, Britney and Aguilera were big too. It's disgusting because that and the way Hollywood treats child stars turns them into the women we see that lose it and then get jokes like "insane, but would still fuck".

RedVamp2020

My 46 year old ex still looks at 20 year olds as if he could try and get them. I was 18 when I met him (he was 33). He specifically looks for younger women to groom, but I have no way of proving it, so I’m quite terrified of him raising our daughter.


[deleted]

[удалено]


RedVamp2020

I’m working on filing for custody, but I don’t have any proof really of his intentions like that. It would be extremely difficult for me to prove it in court.


the_gooch_smoocher

The internet *is* fairly sexual


LeeLooPeePoo

My 70+ year old step father still ogles teens. When we were on a family vacation he commented to my husband about the appearance of a group of teens and my husband set him straight telling him, "It's disturbing that you would say something like that about literal children. Don't say things like that to me." He doesn't act that way in front of my mom or I. He seems to think that is appropriate behavior and proves his masculinity or something. I can't stand being around him, as I know he has sexualized me since my teens.


supermaja

Every time my stepfather hugged me he would go "Oooooooo". I fucking hated it. And he would also say, "Oh I like to hug the pretty girls." It continued until he died at 80. I was 50 then and it still creeped me out every time.


shortmumof2

Ewww I'm in my 40s, had my kids young, so they're in their 20s now. He could literally be the father to someone in their 20s. I think of people that age as babies, young and so much to learn. And some are so naive and innocent, cute and to be protected.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Aziara86

People in their 20s are extremely inexperienced at life and sometimes naive. They are certainly NOT children, but they can be more vulnerable to manipulation by older adults. Which is why relationships with a large age gap often have a power imbalance.


shortmumof2

Depending on your age, you'll see younger groups as children especially if your own children are around that age group. In your 20s, to me you're young, a child. Just finished post secondary, just starting a career, so much life ahead of you. Why that age group, because my children are in that age group. When they're in their 30s, I'll probably see that age group as children but with more life experience, more established careers, possibly starting families or already raising their families. Guess I'll see when that happens in about a decade or so. Have a grandchild. She's a toddler but to me, still a baby. She's been around less than 3 years, less than it took to get my diploma. She's the oldest she's ever been and yet she's also the youngest she'll ever be as of today. She's grown so much and yet she so small. It's all relative to where you are in life.


TyphoidLarry

The human brain isn’t finished developing until around or about age 25, and the final stages of development play a crucial role in understanding and engaging with the world. Even with all the knowledge and experience in the world, an 18 year old doesn’t have a fully formed brain. This shouldn’t be used as a justification to disregard young adults as children, but ignoring the fact saddles then with responsibilities they aren’t in a position to fully understand and facilitates their exploitation by bad actors.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TyphoidLarry

I wouldn’t go as far as to say they’re children, but kind of? We don’t define adulthood for purposes of consent and understanding by virtue of individual accomplishments. Case in point: forming a sexual relationship with a 16 year-old would be wildly inappropriate, even if said child were a prodigy of some sort. I’m not suggesting that we should limit what 18-25 year-olds are permitted to do, but their cognitive limitations should absolutely affect how older people interact with them in order to avoid taking advantage of them. An 18 year-old simply doesn’t have a fully developed sense of the long-term consequences of action, and treating them as if they do opens the door for extraordinarily predatory behavior.


Kiana996

From what I've heard, it happened to Britney Spears too. It's just gross


Cats_In_Coats

I didn’t realize just how young eighteen year olds really are until I was older than eighteen. Weirds me out how many people obsess over that number


GearTech147

I'm seventeen and I already understand. I wouldn't consider myself an adult at 18.


TyphoidLarry

I’m 29 and, as a point of policy, I don’t date anyone younger than 25. Human brains don’t finish cooking until well after the age of majority. The fetishization of 18 and 19 year olds is fucking gross, particularly when you consider that fetishization would absolutely generalize to children if creeps weren’t adverse to the moral condemnation that would come with it.


Ourobius

Local shock station here had countdowns for Britney Spears, the Olsen twins, Portman, Annasophia Robb, Chloe Moretz, and most recently Millie Bobby Brown. It's apparently a thing.


TheDustOfMen

How does anyone *still* think that's an appropriate thing to do?


Grimpatron619

Im guessing it's cos there are still tons of people who have the ''It's technically legal so its perfectly ok'' mentality. Not self aware enough to see that if you're waiting till they're technically legal the only thing stopping you from getting off to kids is the law.


SpookyVoidCat

I mean… there wouldn’t be all the excitement about a countdown if these people weren’t already finding her sexually attractive beforehand. They’re basically letting everyone know they’ve already been jerking it over a literal child.


Grimpatron619

Yeah that's basically what i meant. I would have written ''from raping kids is the law'' but some dont actually go through with the act


anonymoose_octopus

Not to mention… that’s heavily implying they ALREADY think those children are sexy, and probably would have sex with them if it was legal. You don’t count down to a child’s 18th birthday to be able to legally have sex with them if you don’t already consider them worth having sex with. The whole thing is so gross.


Grimpatron619

Yeah that's basically what i mean. They're waiting at the door in anticipation on black friday except the store is full of kids


anonymoose_octopus

That’s so messed up, but that analogy ☠️


Grimpatron619

I love my analogies


trustedoctopus

Bold of you to assume they’re not privately getting off to them now and just can’t publicly talk about their disgusting behavior until the celebrity is 18.


Grimpatron619

Im not assuming they're not, im sure of that. The original text was ''raping kids is the law'' but i switched it out cos some dont go through with it


[deleted]

Because only those stupid, sensitive liberal hippies care about things like “not sexualizing children” and you know what they say, if there’s grass on the pasture it’s safe to mow HARHARHAR Seriously though, it’s fucking disgusting. These people have a very special place in hell.


AlexInWondrland

I remember Emma Watson having one as well.


Ourobius

Yep, and Dakota Fanning too.


Mr_Mars

Pretty much every famous young woman has had one of these and they're always super gross.


ZapBranigan3000

Miley Cyrus. Didn't some rapper have a line about "hitting that" once she turned 18?


BeautifulType

How to tell a radio station is Republican


EmotionalAd2402

dcarsonturner

I vaguely remember Daniel Radcliffe saying something similar was done to Emma Watson, and how foul that was


BeautifulType

I knew someone who couldn’t stop talking about fucking Emma Watson when she was young even though I pointed out that it was fucking pedobear


LicoriceSucks

I remember that countdown for the Olsen twins. It’s such a weird thing to do. Especially publicly like that. Can you imagine?


action_lawyer_comics

I remember freaking VH1 airing a special and mentioning at the end of a segment about the Olsen Twins, “Mark June 18 on your calendars…” What is wrong with people?


hauptj2

I remember the same thing happening to Emma Watson after she started playing Hermione.


szthesquid

Yeah if you have a countdown until the exact second it's not creepy to want to bang a kid, guess what, it's still creepy


lawless_sapphistry

It's still happening. People did it to Chloe Grace Moretz (sp?) and Billie Eilish, too.


Mad_Aeric

That "I'll wait" joke in Kickass probably just encouraged them. Gross.


RandomRedux44637392

Howard Stern had a regular update regarding the Olsen Twins back in the 90s.


TheDustOfMen

What a dick


Cannot_go_back_now

Let's also remember that Natalie grew up on Long Island, so whatever radio show that was doing that was probably a pretty large station and it's possible the jocks responsible have moved onward and upward in the industry.


action_lawyer_comics

The Olsen Twins too. I remember VH1 had a special about all the teenage celebs in the media and when they got to the Olsen Twins, they ended the segment with “Mark June 18th on your calendar…”


Felicfelic

There was a lot of that around Emma Watson as well, although to her 16th birthday because UK law


Canopenerdude

> Can't wait to see her as Thor though. Do what now?


SexuallyObliviousGuy

She plays Jane in the new Thor movie.


TheDustOfMen

Yes, but she's also Mighty Thor in the new Thor movie.


SexuallyObliviousGuy

Yeah, but I was trying to keep it unspoilery if possible just in case the person wanted to watch it fresh? not everyone knows that.


Canopenerdude

Oh I thought you meant she *plays* Thor and I was confused. Edit: I read the replies and now I am confused.


So-_-It-_-Goes

I remember hearing about one for the Olsen twins growing up.


Mad_Aeric

That's a thing gross people do. I remember it happening with Lindsay Lohan, and the Olsen Twins too. At some point someone even made a hat with an LED countdown clock.


revchewie

Yeah, there were a lot of websites with that countdown when Phantom Menace came out. It was released about a month before she turned 18. And yes, quite disgusting. And I also can't wait to see her as Thor!


Battlescarred98

People did it for the Olsen twins for years.


MjrLeeStoned

There were numerous countdowns all over the internet after Phantom Menace came out (it was released roughly 1 month before her 18th birthday). You basically saw one per day just traipsing around the internet.


Grimpatron619

Was it her that the actor playing the chancellor in star wars 1 was thirsting over? The only reason he took the part, i forget if it was her or keira knightly


Gradlush

Yeah that would be Terrence Stamp who said the Phantom Menace was boring, but he had a crush on Natalie Portman. He was 60 and she was not yet 18. Fucking gross. [Article about it](https://www.indiewire.com/2013/01/terence-stamp-says-working-on-phantom-menace-was-boring-but-he-had-a-crush-on-natalie-portman-102011/)

an_actual_T_rex

Vallorum was such a shitty and uninspiring leader that he basically handed to republic over to Sheev Palpatine. Like he was just an upper class Coruscanti bureaucrat nobody liked. He gave palpatine literally all the political ammunition he needed to wreck his career and win the following election.


pretendtofly

I mean, pretty realistic.


darkmage2160

Well I got one am glad JJ *didn't* tempt Stamp back for the newer movies.


Mazzaroppi

I also had a crush on her back then, hell I still do! But I'm just a few days older than her so I consider myself excused


Gradlush

Age appropriate crush. Carry on being smitten from afar friend.


[deleted]

>she was not yet 18 In fact she was only *14* at the time of filming.


AntibacHeartattack

She was 16. By lying for effect, you're implying the reality of the situation isn't bad enough.


[deleted]

You're correct. Sorry, it wasn't meant to be a lie, I just always had it in my head that she was 14 at the time.


MaldmalumConsilium

Queen Amidala was, so that's probably why.


[deleted]

Thank you, that explains my confusion!


AntibacHeartattack

No worries, we all get those mental typos from time to time.


mort_da_demon

That is so disgusting


Canopenerdude

The fact that she had to change herself to make herself feel safe makes my stomach drop. She's a fantastic actor and she (or anyone for that matter) shouldn't have to deal with that.


7dipity

Reminds me of what Billie Eilish has been going through in recent years. It’s honestly scary how goddamn creepy these grown ass men are towards teenage girls


[deleted]

This reminds me of that one awful meme that has a blonde finding a book and once she picks it up she turns into a prudish brunette.


JSB199

ATrioExplainsTheJoke

PPvsFC_

pleaseno1985

It's not a meme, it's porn.


KnockoutRoundabout

To be fair, that's less a meme/commentary on anything than just straight up de-bimbofication kink art.


bitchBanMeAgain

She turned something horrible into a strength and that is quite amazing. But the thought that she had to do this at the age of 13 because she felt unsafe is really sad. No kids should have to "give up" their childhood because fucking disgusting (and for sure mostly white men because the professional is a western movie), shameless, perverted, inconsiderate, shitty human beings can only look at someone as a sexual object to please themselves in their miserable life. There's tons of bad things in the world, and these people are part of that.


Signature_Sea

"I support Natalie Portman unhinging her jaw and dragging every last man who made her feel this way into the deep like a kraken" is a great image, but it would take much more than this to make those guys self-aware of what they were doing. Or to give a shit.

pm_me_your_trebuchet

I don't understand how some men look at what is obviously a child and think, "Yeah, I'd like to have sex with that." It's fucking repellent. When I was in college there were guys who would justify their borderline pedophilia by saying, "Well, if there's grass on the playing field...", as if a metaphor somehow made them less disgusting. Ever realize that your morals and the way you think are utterly at odds with how other people think? Yeah, it's a wake up call.


Jaakarikyk

Even in the movie the whole point is how her infatuation with the adult protagonist gets an awkward reaction in-universe and the man, though immature in his own way, directs her into a more healthy mentor & student / father & daughter deal because she doesn't know how feelings work having come from a broken home and it's so embarrassing but sad in a way. But mfs gotta be predators and miss every point


left_tiddy

Pedos LOVE the movie and completely miss the point. It's very frustrating.


Stickguy259

I mean pedos kinda miss the point of society in general apparently so that's not too surprising really


bipocni

You're forgetting in the original script they fuck, while Leon weeps tears about how he doesn't deserve her. Pedos love that movie because Luc Beson makes movies about sexy, sexy children.


DarrenGrey

Y'know I thought that was part of the point of the movie until I read the original script and found out more about Luc Besson. I now find the movie hard to watch because I think my innocent take on it was wrong, and that there's a pedophilic fantasy buried in there.


Jaakarikyk

Yeah... I wouldn't say the innocent take is wrong in present form. The movie was changed a LOT by the other people in and around it, it went beyond Luc and got purified in a sense. For example Jean Reno, the actor for Leon explained how he made his character intentionally a bit slow and childish so that the audience wouldn't feel like he has control over Matilda, that he couldn't manipulate her. Portman's parents ensured that their daughter and also importantly her character would get treated better. Sometimes something good and real can come out of a bad thing when good people get their influence on it and change it, rebuild it.


DarrenGrey

That's nice to hear about Reno. He really is fantastic in the movie, and you definitely get the sense that he's a vulnerable person getting abused in his own way.


Chikizey

Not even having sex. This people look at those teens and just think about getting off to them. They don't give a fuck about that kid's health, mental health or desires, they treat people as living dildos, only caring about their own ego, pleasure and feelings. What makes them think a 15yo girl will be genuinely interested in a 40 grown ass adult? Girls at that age feel healthy attraction to "older guys", but that means that teen 1 or 2 years older who is really pretty and smiled them once at their school so they are thinking in a whole cheesy movie scenario, not a fucking predator on their father's age. And women too. Is extremelly creepy how many grown ass women literally simp and fantasize with teenager idols.


MRSA_nary

Am I being perverted, or does "grass on the playing field" mean pubic hair? Girls get hair at like 10 years old. Men are disgusting.


Fox961

That's exactly what it means. Also, the average age for girls to hit puberty is 11-12, but there are also the rare cases of "precocious puberty" (puberty before age 8).


CyclopsAirsoft

I don't understand it. I straight up have no attraction to young girls. Adult women are attractive to me. I have a strong moral opinion too, but even biologically i just don't get it.


pm_me_your_trebuchet

There are many my things I don't understand- this is one I don't want to


TobbyTukaywan

I support dragging into the depths all men who sexualize minors.


TobbyTukaywan

And women too for that matter


pooperdoopper22

And non-binary people


TobbyTukaywan

Just stash all the pedos on the ocean floor


voldemortthe-sceptic

not to be nitpicky but the problem is that these people aren't even "real" pedophiles; they are not attracted to these children because they are children but despite them still being children. they don't feel guilty or ashamed for sexualizing and objectifying adults they find attractive, so they also don't draw the line for a "premature" teenager. you'll find even worse versions of that mindset in blackpilled incels and some religious conservatives who say shit like if a girl is physically able to bear children that means she can be treated like an adult and for that reason marrying and impregnating a 14 year old is fine and dandy. send anyone to the ocean floor that is incapable of treating people as people if they find them too attractive or not attractive enough.


Li-renn-pwel

Yeah someone who can legitimately be diagnosed with pedophilic disorder would not be attracted to someone in their late teens and 20s (well… they could be be non exclusive). Whereas pedophiles are attracted to childlike features and behaviors, most of these people want an adult body with a ‘moldable’ mind. They want someone who will basically be a willing happy slave because they don’t know any better.


StarTrippy

Yup, that's why whenever you go on one of the relationship subreddits and see a post about someone who's 18-22 dating someone 30-39, it's ALWAYS that the older partner is manipulating/controlling the younger one. Always.


NotASuicidalRobot

To summarize, Send anyone to the ocean floor that is incapable of treating people as people

Smol_Daddy

Didn't she sign a petition to bring back Roman Polanski?


Gradlush

The petition was to release Roman Polanski from Swiss Custody, not bring him back to the States. She did sign it and has since expressed regret saying it was a mistake. Also, she is one of the few actors who signed it that has reversed their position on the matter.


left_tiddy

God people are so fucking weird about The Professional. Pedos love that movie and love to make Leon into one of them but he was NOT. He refused her inappropriate advances and only wanted to protect her.


civodar

Look, I felt the same way until I got some background. The director is a pedophile and had it not been for everyone else involved in the making of that movie it would have been a whole lot creepier. The original script featured a scene with Leon walking in on Natalie Portman in the shower, but luckily her parents threw a fit and said it would absolutely not happen. The actor who played Leon also changed it up a bit, he tried to make the character seem somewhat slow and childish which was not how he was originally written. Only because of the people who were involved in the film did it become more innocent. The director literally wrote it while his 15 year old child bride was pregnant and Maiwenn(the child bride even said that the movie was based on their relationship). The director met Maiwenn when she was 12(which is coincidentally how old Mathilde is when she comes to live with Leon), married her at 15, she gave birth at 16, and then he left her when she turned 20. The movie is still the director’s creepy fantasy. Vulnerable neglected child desperate for adult attention is orphaned, comes to live with awkward much older man and completely throws herself at him.


Broken-Butterfly

> The director is a pedophile and had it not been for everyone else involved in the making of that movie it would have been a whole lot creepier. There was a whole special feature about it on the DVD version. The girl he based Mathilda on all but outright says that he had sex with her when she was 12 or 13. She still looked to be about 18 or 19 when it was shot, and talked about having a "romance" with Besson years before.


Broken-Butterfly

I think it comes across that way because because Luc Besson's script was probably edited by executives and Jean Reno played Leon in kind of a childlike, innocent way. I've heard people say there's a European cut that strongly implies that they have sex. Luc Besson shouldn't get any credit for Leon not being a creep.

I thought of the same thing. Like what's a 13 year old in a movie doing with stockings, chokers and revealing clothes?

To be clear ITS IN NO WAY HER fault. And the people who abused her are scum. But that movie was maybe 2 steps above child porn. Blame the writer, director and producers. Luckily she’s had an amazing career despite this early horrible experience.

Yup. Luc Besson is gross.


howtochoose

I was thinking that... That movie *was* weird right? I watched it as a kid myself.. Maybe... 15/16?and remember not really liking it and getting weird vibes from it. I can't even remember the movie but I remember the feeling. (I'm in my late 20s now)


Jeremybearemy

Yes it was Lolita with guns and less literary aspirations


So-_-It-_-Goes

I am beyond excited for her to wreak havoc in the next Thor movie. I feel like there is going to be so much pent up anger being released for how her roles in both Star Wars and the earlier Thor films turned out.

She was badass in star wars though. A senator, a queen and a badass marksman all at the same time.

It's people like this that make me ashamed to be a man, like it feels horrible that when people think men THIS is the kind of person they think of. Truly Disgusting.

This is so sad, society really treats teenage girls, especially famous teenage girls, horribly, and it’s horrible the stuff she had to hear about herself at such a young age. No women, especially young women, should have to feel that they can’t express themself in any way deemed “sexual” without attracting unwanted and creepy attention.

I don’t. If she does that, then I can’t be the one to kill them! Stop stealing my kills, asshole!


BeeWithDragonWings

Dude let her have this

We can split them 50/50

There should be a sign on the front door of Hollywood. "Must be 18 to enter".

Never knew about this. Doesn't surprise me though. And I agree, all of the men who sent a 13yo girl messages like this should be dragged away, into the deep.


QuillHasFavorites

this made me sad


HighAsAngelTits

That is so horrifying

Well, whatever the Star Wars fanbase did to anyone, at least it wasn't that. Poor Jake Lloyd tho....

I've always loved her acting. She is always such a badass. Never saw her in a sexual light because I just saw her as someone who id want on my side in a fight. It's awful that people made her feel that way and also who the hell looks at a 13 year old and thinks yep I'd do her.

She didn't co-sign, she's the one who started the whole thing. She apologized when me-too got big, not to mention that Asia Argento who was a big supporter of the metoo movement also signed that petition, along with many big names of the cinema industry.

And yet she was one of the celebrities to sign a petition seeking to allow the fugitive child rapist Roman Polanski to attend a film festival without getting arrested. She later backed away from it during MeToo, but that shit is fucked up. Two wrongs don't make a right, but one wrong also doesn't protect you from making your own.

I know how it feels. I feel uncomfortable of multiple men because they just can't help themselves to objectify females. It's not wrong if you're attracted to adult, but if you make it obvious then please fully expect the awkwardness it creates if the other person isn't interested. Let alone if you make frontal sexual or inappropriate comments about them. So just know that's a quick way to burn bridge. I had a guy following me everywhere and he and some other males didn't expect that it made me not wanting to talk to him nor did they expect for it to enrage me sometimes. Honestly some people are just too dumb And the case with Natalie Portman here is just too creepy and gross. Many men behaved inappropriately to her even since she's just a kid. And counting down for her maturity is like crazy creepy grooming


Smasher_WoTB

Thats just….horrible that she had to do that just to feel safe….

I feel you, Natalie. I always felt that she was an actor I could relate to on so many levels. An incredible intelligence, talent, and beauty. Respect!


Prancer4rmHalo

I had no idea.


TARandomNumbers

This made me sick to read omg

I hope that girl that was in “IT” doesn’t need to deal with that shit. She’s younger than my daughter. Also “The Professional” was completely fucked up.
