We were thinking about more than merely 10 mil. (you cheapskate!!!) Our goal would be to make it so much money that some conservative (excuse me. Sorry to be intolerant.) someone who disagrees with our views be they conservative, liberal, or centrist, about what we want to do with our money and tries some half-baked…

Honey? Is that you??

That was actually a plot in The Office (US edition). The whole warehouse quit.

I did this once with the only scratch off I have ever bought. I was talked into buying one by some friends who play all the time. I forget how much I won, but it was enough to buy everyone’s beer (we were in a liquor store before some tailgating or party or something) and to enjoy some serious schadenfreude.

Okay a trust then. Thanks for the advice. If we win the jackpot I’ll send you a fee. (And no, I won’t give any relatives a job. The whole point of setting up an intermediate funding mechanism is so I don’t have to talk to them. These are people who still refer to Brazil nuts in a very racist way. It’s bad enough I…

I am not a Christian. My god never told me to not resist evil or if slapped in the cheek to offer my other. So I will resist and I will slap back when slapped.

That’s almost exactly what my wife and I decided last night. A foundation for relatives and friends, a Super Pac for politicians we like, and several millions to Planned Parenthood because fuck conservatives.

Plus just paying off my debts would make me immensely, well, maybe not happy, but HAPPIER.

I think that’s part of it, but since I have no kids and will never have them, to hell with it. Also, I think people waaaaaaaayyyyy over estimate their ability to save and invest. They think they can get better return if they take all the money now with plans to double, triple, no I CAN QUADRUPLE MY MONEY!! And the…

Wow. Simple, clear, and snarkless explanation to a rules question. Are we sure this is the real Deadspin comment’s section and not some weird, alternate universe?

The game wasn’t over. There were .4 seconds left.

So when I use my 20 year old joke about a “golden shower of flags” when more than two refs threw a flag, it was funnier than even I thought? Good to know.

It’s worse than that. As a grad student I pay at least twice, possibly thrice, for my state school’s DIV I Football team. 1) I pay a student athletic fee as part of my tuition bill every semester. (which includes paying fired coaches. A recent study put the cost of contract buyouts at Maryland of past coaches at about…

NOW. The have all those things NOW. They have all those things for all the reason you mentioned. But it took years, decades of trial and error, demands, negotiations, collective bargaining, regulation, and a million people over a hundred years to act in their enlighten self-interest to reach to make it work. No one…

Paying college players makes sense. But has anyone come up with a fair system of compensation?

If bad dancing were flagged, there’d be more flags flying than at the UN.

Honest question. If they there was no TD, is the celebration penalty still valid? Without a touchdown there was nothing to celebrate and it’s just random dancing.

You realize that for people on the West Coast that would be 10:00 am and 1 pm start times right?

I’ve been twice. Both for professional conferences. I had a good time, but then I didn’t get outside the Convention Center/Science Center/Rock and Roll Hall of Fame area. Which looks and feels like every other American downtown convention area.

And no mention of their Personal Seat Licensing requirements?
