Scientist 1: “That stuff gives people cancer.”

Pre-existing conditions.

The key to using the knife technique on the avocado pit is to *twist* the knife once it’s in the pit. This will free the pit from being stuck and it will come out much much easier. Also, don’t go get one of those “avocado scooper” things - I have one that I never use because it doesn’t remove the pit, takes longer to…

They painted up the street in front of my house a couple years ago and also placed some flags in my yard near the street. I was never given any explanation by whoever put them there. I diligently mowed around them for a month or two, but then got annoyed by having to trim around them so I mowed them up to teach them a…

Preston, thank you so much for this piece. It is disgusting to think that somebody could be so careless and demonstrate such disregard for another person’s bodily and sexual autonomy. I am appalled at the lack sex education, respect and ignorance that people display. Stealthing is absolutely sexual assault, make no…

So many of my comments in real life and here and elsewhere on the web boil down to “Jesus, look at this fucking asshole right here”, and I mean to one day change that and cleanse myself of this all-consuming hatred, but Jesus, look at this asshole right here.

Good idea.

This liberal bias is exactly why I canceled my subscription to Deadspin. I just read all the words in the articles and comment sometimes.

If you’re so firmly conservative that your mind goes immediately to “ESPN’s liberal agenda is killing them!”, you are likely a strong supporter of Fox News. If you have Fox News, you have cable. And if you have cable...you’re paying ESPN like $80 a year even if you never touch the channel.

Before choosing to watch my favorite team on television, I, like most sports fans, apply a strict political litmus test on the ideological philosophy of the network broadcasting the game.

Too late, the noxious meme has been pumped into the dead-ender closed-loop ecosystem, where it will linger until the heat death of the universe. It is now beyond our reach, and it’s our job to recognize that arguing with your uncle or your redneck high school classmate about it on Facebook is wasted time in its purest…

It feels like every other night I’m lying on my couch by 6:30 with wine, a blanket and parks and rec reruns because that just sounds nicer than the real world.

Can’t tell, are you making a trickle-down economics argument? Because sure, decreasing taxes for the wealthy might increase investment, but decreasing taxes for the middle and lower classes increases spending, and increasing spending is a far more effective and direct method for spurring the economy.

At a rat fuva pat.

It actually looks really straightforward. Other than the “tph” cluster, the entire name just alternates consonants and vowels.

“Attarat Poovapat! Attarat Poovapat!” Now you try- it’s fun!

It takes me longer to say his name than for him to save his bike.

This makes me sad. Just further proof that BMW cares less and less about being the Ultimate Driving Machine.

This is the same deal as with encryption. Create a backdoor/emergency shutoff ostensibly for ‘security’ purposes and then it’s available for anyone in authority to use whenever they choose.

Honestly, I think that EVERY parent should have a talk about firearm safety, whether they own guns or not. With guns being so prevalent, you never know when your child may come into contact with one. I have quite a few guns at my house and a child, and I teach my son gun safety all the time, even with his toy nerf…
