I love football and deadspin, but God I hate your writing of football on deadspin, must you bring your pro-barca bias into EVERY la-liga post you write? “Madrid couldn’t field a team if they didn’t take players who've ever supported barca” at the same time insuating that barca are above doing the same, hence the…

Baseball writers are a group of people who are completely non-representative of the general populace. That’s kind of Burneko’s point. The answer to the overwhelming question of “who cares?” is “only a small segment of the populace who’ve been trained for ages to take this shit way too seriously.”

Hell, you don’t even seem that interested in them - you didn’t give us a hint of what they are.

Exactly. ‘Wages are so low because of government intervention, and if government would deregulate everything, businesses would give everyone raises.’

Well maybe if Obama stopped oppressing them with his skin pigment they’d meet him in the middle and negotiate.

Woah. This has nothing to do with her gender. Don’t try to paint me as some kind of misogynist. She’s the first woman climber I’ve read of dying. (There may have been others, I suppose, but if so, I forget.) I hold this view primarily about male climbers I’ve read about who leave wives and children behind. The…

We adventure to confront the confines of our own comfort zones; for some people, those comfort zones are much farther out.

I agree wth a caveat: unless you have children who depend on you for raising them, then I just think it’s criminally selfish. When you have kids who depend on you, you don’t have the right to gamble with your life any more than you have to (say, by driving to work).

She had her gloves off and was behind a boulder - sounds like she died answering nature’s call. How awful, and what a way to go. It’s easy to lose your balance popping a squat in narrow places.

Our entire nation is on a first name basis with our quarterbacks.

So a diet of mostly whiskey and sugar is okay?

How do I fix the part where I’m ugly at any angle or lighting?

Not only was I off today, I was required to take three days of my annual leave between now and the 2nd.

How is it hypocrisy? The Western world basically shuts down on Christmas, what are they supposed to do?

Except the holiday wasn't originally Christian, let me tell you a little story it is historically accurate and takes place in the times of the Roman empire when Christianity was but a small sect of people trying to gain favor and popularity, every winter there would be a huge celebrations, Many people would celebrate…

Yawn. Christmas was stolen from pagans. It's not the baby jesus birthday and all that. Get over it.

also just because they hate Christians, doesn't mean they don't hate work also (or just want to get paid to watch TV) :P you can hate more then one thing at a time.

That's ironic, because I find the perfect example of stupidity and ignorance to be the use the word 'retard' as an insult.

That's not my rule - I wasn't passing down the judgement, merely letting you know the reality of the situation. Take it up with God, or the guy who wrote 'How Not To Be A Massive Tool' or the chief of maths.

FYI: QED belongs only at the end of a proof. Any other use is douchebaggery of the highest order.
