You don’t never fuck around with Unci. See also:

Keep in mind that the line is painted under a few inches of ice. This can cause, when viewing from an angle as we are in this shot, the parallax effect that “positions” the puck in such a way that it even creates the illusion of white space between the puck and the line, when in actuality what we’re seeing is the…

May I suggest a step before your step one where you slice off the bottom (at the stem) 1/4in or so. This allows it to stand flat and you can slice the cheeks off either side without things sliding around cuz magoes are slippery bastards.

I can appreciate what he’s doing here and I fully support it. Four years ago my wife and I went to Iceland and I decided it’d be fun to pretend on social media that I’d gone to Ireland. It was going to be one post, but it proved to be oddly divisive. So for the rest of the trip I regaled people about my Irish…

Gotta love Trotsky Dude in there. He definitely read a book at least once!

Now that the Red Sox and both Chicago teams have won Series’ recently we really need a fun name for Cleveland’s struggles that’ll bring back some of that fun Billy Goat-Bambino stuff that Baseball’s so good at.

Coach of the fucking year.

Hitting that ball at that arc from that distance on a volley takes an insane amount of skill.

Coming to the MLS for some of these guys must feel like one of us adults playing with and against a bunch of children

To paraphrase the Manchester United fan chant (sung to the tune of Yankee Doodle Dandy):

So what happened is...he wasn’t in the NHL, and then they......

Careful, he’ll stick that thing up your ass and pull the trigger ‘til it goes “click.”

American Public Media’s “Marketplace” outlet is pretty fantastic, especially Kai Ryssdal’s flagship podcast of the same name. Kai & APM have a great way of explaining really business-y things without making it boring or patronizing.

Matt Levine is a national treasure. Michael Lewis is a great writer as well—Liar’s Poker is fantastic—but (as someone who works in electronic trading) Flash Boys is such utter bullshit that it made me retroactively like his earlier books less, because I realized he was probably making shit up in those as well. (This…

Yes, there’s actually a ton of good business writing. Michael Lewis, James Stewart, Matt Levine, and Gretchen Morgenstern are all great, just off the top of my head. It’s just like any other field of journalism, though: there are press release quoters and meaningless #analysis merchants, and then there are real…

Dude, stay out of this. I’m having a conversation with Jim Nill.

The only reason people may think Jim Nill is a better GM than Peter Chiarelli is because Peter Chiarelli gifted Jim Nill Tyler Seguin. His coaching hires have been terrible (hiring Lindy Ruff and Ken Hitchcock is a shade off hiring Don Cherry at this point in their careers). He signed two god-awful goalies to…

...As long as Nathan Horton’s wife was around.*

I’ll grant the lady this much: by backing up at the end, she produced the first evidence I have ever seen of reverse racism.

If anything, the people of Renton are known for their nuanced but racist understanding of Washington State tax law.
