1. Well, this comment section predictably turned into missing the forest for the trees as everyone scrambled to determine if the author is or is not properly fat.

Agreed. I originally made this name because my New Year’s resolution was to stop engaging in troll/flaming and just give out likes. And then I remembered who I was, a flaming troll. But I’m trying, getting a little better every day. That’s all we can really hope for as humans. Or, as trolls disguised as humans. :)

Of note: The museum’s website (with an adorable URL) has playable recreations (in Flash, I think) of several of the games, to help give you a more “hands-on” idea of what these games were like.

The Russian page has more available than the English page (likely owing to the large amount of supplemental text they write…

Tell me more about this one.

You know, a weird thought just occurred to me: maybe, and hear me out on this one, but maybe they take high school football too seriously in Texas.

Jeez, it is not like Star Wars is going to stop selling stuff anytime soon. The franchise has been around for nearly 40 years and there has always been Star Wars merchandise. Everybody just calm down and wait a while. This stuff will come back in stock again.

“Force Friday” or as it’s called in Staten Island, “Date Night”

That their Force Friday sucked because retailers severely understocked on the most popular items—action figures. People who waited hours got only a fraction of what was on their wish list, if at all.

Phew, I had an original draft of that comment that was a lot more snarky! Glad I didn’t publish that one, because it was an honest mistake.

Yeah, I fully concur with your evaluation there. It’s happened to all of us, I’m sure; we had one plan in mind, then something at the last second makes us reevaluate our choice,…

She made her kick from the top of the goal box. One offensive-turned-defensive player is at the penalty spot, and there is another coming from the other direction. Both are clearly in the frame of the shot so I don’t know how you missed that. If she trapped the ball and/or dribbled, they could have easily trapped her…

Except there was an offensive player right behind her. She made the right play, just bad luck.

Underrated comment.

Can’t you miserable people be happy he’s making that kind of money?

I assume that that is part of the various collective bargaining agreements.

No. How fucking dare she imply that these two soldiers, graduates of West Point, an MP and a helicopter pilot, who worked so incredibly hard to even get the chance to attend Ranger school, and then completed it against all odds, how fucking dare she even think they should just shut up and go away and do ladylike…

Let’s also keep in mind that these are ARMY RANGERS. They are badass human survival machines, and she's worrying about them getting a sad?

But everyone’s so HAPPY at the end of Return of the Jedi! You figure they’ve all just got years of Space BBQs and happy times ahead of them!

Any matchup between Baylor and Texas Tech is mostly BUTT.
