While the prospect of a new Drake single about fake friends will rightfully elicit a resounding, disinterested groan from half of the world, the other half will vibe out to the stellar melodies and bright production on "Fake Love," likely in semi-ironic appreciation.

Such a group no doubt includes the creators and writers of the smartly stupid TBS show Angie Tribeca, which in its first season has proved to be a slapstick-crammed, happily groan-provoking cop-comedy with a high BPM (buffoonery-per-minute) ratio and a low-key sweetness.

A quintessentially Aardman-esque stew of slapstick, homage, and wordplay so wry it barely (but always) misses being groan-worthy, Early Man is a gentle and modest reflection on how we have, from the very beginning, always needed to treat one another with kindness in order to survive.

On Monday night, NFL rookie Sam Darnold made his highly anticipated first start as quarterback for the New York Jets and, in true Jets fashion, threw an interception that was returned for a touchdown on his very first pass, spawning a collective groan across my NFL Twitter list.

Bringing to mind the harshest corners of club music—see ANGEL-HO's Red Devil mix or Lotic's Agitations—the album sounds like the groan of unimaginable technologies thrashing to life, envisioning a new, distinctly 21st century brand of industrial music as much as any internet-accelerated dance strain.

Their catamaran's rigging and hulls groan and creak with the strain of the vast wing sail, which is about as big as a 737 aircraft's, as their coach puts the crew of five through a "gut buster", a series of short maneuvers requiring frequent adjustments, total concentration and intense exertion.

STEP from the fraying lobby into the tiled interior of Akebono-Yu, Tokyo's oldest sento, or public bath-house, and there is an almost churchlike silence, interrupted only by the tinkle of spring water and the odd groan of pleasure from one of the elderly customers sinking into its tubs.
|
|
I'm not saying that every time they groan you have to ask, "Are you okay?" because that's excessive and annoying, but pay attention to overt signs, like if they've stopped moving entirely, if their breathing is erratic, if they're wincing in pain, if they're crying (you'd be surprised!), and so on.

But he has announced the paper will vacate its Art Deco headquarters in downtown Los Angeles and move to new offices in El Segundo, near the airport — a move that was greeted with a groan among staff because for many it will mean longer commutes in the city's notorious traffic.

Hell, it was even after Paramount kicked things off with a groan-worthy bit with the cast of Baywatch, which had me wondering if everyone had given up on the teleprompter script, or if some sort of real, deep-seated personal animus toward co-star Zac Efron was surfacing in real time.

Almost every line she utters elicits a laugh, or a gasp, or a groan; hers is not only the most impressive performance in "Girl from the North Country" but the one that works most like Dylan's best songs—action and feeling happen simultaneously, and are expressed by way of the very same gestures.
|
|
And for all its indebtedness to a self-evident franchise, the material is cheeky enough to riff on such diverse topics as Sally Field's legendary Oscar acceptance speech of 1985 and the sort of food on which this community would be likely to feast: cue cheerfully groan-worthy wordplay involving tabbouleh and hummus.

Firstly, in anything other than a stark and unqualified list that unreels to the end of our allotted space here, there are going to be serious, gaping omissions that will cause me to wake at 3 in the morning and groan in useless torment at my own inadequacy as both a friend and reader.

I was about to dismiss it all with an eyeroll and a groan until I began reading the comments, and realized that in fact the RompHim had become a catalyst for a renewed conversation on gender identity and the issue of whether we all should have an inalienable right to wear what we want.

The most immediately apparent sonic ingredients are the harshest ones: pounding metallic drums, random electronic shrieks, piercingly high bleeps dragged down a chalkboard, blasts of bass turned up way too loud, surprisingly hummable if dissonant synthesizer hooks, Gazelle Twin's own voice filtered through a mechanical groan — a musical forest of whirling knives and churning gears.

As nice as it was to spend time with friends in the hills of Los Santos, GTA Online's success came only after an incredibly weak launch: It felt latched on, lacking the clever mission design of later multiplayer expansions, and featuring groan-worthy writing that felt like it was picked up from the cutting room floor.

Not that we don't do it all the time (because free two-day shipping is the bomb), but you can't help but let out a heavy groan when you realize you need to restock an essential — say, a moisturizer — and a simple Prime search pulls up approximately 23 pages of what seems like every tube or jar ever created.

When one of her professors speaks of her own Yale assignment to complete 100 drawings, Painter's fellow students groan as she imposes the challenge on herself — and mind you, this was taken up while writing "The History of White People," chairing various scholarly organizations and flying back and forth to the West Coast to care for elderly parents.
|

That said, the paper-thin characters do produce some groan-inducing scenarios, such as Adria Arjona as a Jaeger member who's dating Nate, and is basically on hand just to give Jake and Nate something to argue about -- and gin up a bit of comic relief -- when they're not moving in unison to operate their mechanical man.
|

And while recent band reunions have often produced some downright groan-worthy performances, with retired artists going back to the well one too many times when they should have just let their legacies rest, it's refreshing to see Descendents—who overcame so much after Stevenson's debilitating health issues—reclaim the punk throne and remind a younger generation how it's done.
|

He does found objects pretty well, too: The groan-worthy collection of items presented in "The Black Factory Archive," started in 2004, and which are supposed to "represent blackness," include dolls, large-size condoms, hair products and musical artifacts — as well as a Federal Reserve Board pamphlet, a reminder that economics and ideas about race (everywhere) are often bound together.
|

There is so much character to this world that it was fun to kick around and check out every detail (even if some of the references are groan-worthy obvious.) But here's the biggest goan-worthy element: along with all that 80s nostalgia is an unfortunate helping of stereotypes that seem like they're more about people than the tropes of retro pop-culture.

It's hard to overstate what a cultural phenomenon "Combine Harvester" still is to this day—it's more unusual, even 40 years on, to find somebody over the age of 20 who grew up in the UK who's never heard of it than it is to find a person who'll groan and hold their head in their hands after hearing a few bars of the chorus.

Throw in some groan-y dream sequences, an out-of-left field Easter egg or two (that point to an expanding paradigm for the Justice League film and/or films) and more than a few brief, cheeky character introductions — wait'll you hear the Immigrant Song-like guitar riff they play every time you see Wonder Woman in a breastplate — and Batman v Superman is kind of a disaster.

Judging by the trailer, the movie has it all: a reference to one of the best Mariah Carey bangers of all time; sensual, close-up shots of decadent food; Wong and Park's signature acerbic senses of humor; cultural jokes that will make Asian-American viewers groan with their resonance (who among us hasn't witnessed an Asian parent's Very Direct Questioning about how much money their crush is making?).

His repertoire includes the groan of half-concealed disgust, elicited when he's shocked by Selina's vulgarity; the grunt of repressed nay-saying; the whinny of apprehension, which Selina seems to register almost subconsciously when she's about to embark on a disastrous track while speaking to someone, and occasionally uses to her advantage; and the mortified laugh of theatrical indignation, always on Selina's behalf, but called off in a split second if Selina doesn't require his outrage after all.

In addition to his brand of blue-collar tennis with a soundtrack that is a cross between a grunt and a groan accompanying every ball off his trusty Wilson T-2000 steel-frame racket, Connors's two weeks in New York included an aborted news media boycott, a practice session in which he dropped his shorts to the delight or horror of about 100 witnesses and the occasional outburst at the chair umpire, lines people and fans.

The season 2 fall finale of the NBC family drama featured our resident perfectionist, played by Sterling K. Brown, enduring a day of emotional overmuch: Not only was he seeking to comfort Kate on the phone and trying to manage his vodka-swilling brother who showed up at his doorstep, Randall wrestled with the painful decision to bid farewell to Deja (Lyric Ross), the guarded foster child who initially recoiled at his approach but over the last few weeks had grown to groan at his humor and embrace life as a Pearson.

The last poem in the book, "Missing Planet," fuses many of Godfrey's motifs: One more link and it rains golf balls If some thoughts are padded rooms in a hovel, let this one be a rose on a bed of chilled noses These lines are reluctant to cave into sentimentality; each line break uses humor to undermine the reader's expectations, most strikingly in the second stanza: I groan a bit to reach the wall safe I really can't tell you much on the subject of paradise but there are moments when I'm out on the unicycle and the missing planet on the crosswalk is my Fata Morgana There's an irresolute comfort in resting my head against the butt of a lamppost Godfrey's commitment to the act of writing poetry, whether it's filling index cards at the end of a long day or shifting from verse to prose and back, assuages my own feelings of doubt about writing.
