Exactly. I’ve been waiting for these “but what if” pieces to start hitting. Bryant might have pulled a hamstring or torn a bicep or got hit by a bus on the way to the stadium in April, too. Most Cubs fans are happy with where the team is right now.

Smoothest application of a full nelson I’ve ever seen.

The game changer occurred once I realized I didn’t need a new phone every year (or even every two years). Buying a phone outright on Craigslist or eBay saves a ton of cash on the phone price and on the monthly cost.

Or if T-Mobile is usable in your area, pay $30/month for unlimited text and data (up to 5GB of LTE) and 100 minutes a month. Granted, it’s not a lot of minutes but who talks anymore, right?

Youtube. Full episode is available, has Spanish subtitles.

You’re drinking the wrong gin.

I never had an issue with contracts, it had always been the cost of data that bothered me. I’m on the pre-paid T-Mobile $30 unlimited plan not because there isn’t a contract, but because it’s actually sensibly priced.

This is exactly right. The audience wasn’t supposed to think Parker was cool in this scene, it was an embodiment of what Parker himself thought was cool. In that context it works perfectly. Spider-Man 3 has plenty of flaws, this isn’t one of them.

He doesn’t even have the stones to call it what it is, referring to it as “the taking of this lion.” Human garbage.

“enable him to perform any act common to the game” was the most poorly constructed and objective phrase in the NFL rule book. Now it’s “if he does not remain upright long enough to demonstrate that he is clearly a runner.” So good job on that, I guess?

Agreed. Just wanted to prepare anyone who may order a blue steak for the first time. I definitely didn't expect it.

It’s not rude at all, especially in higher-end restaurants. In chain restaurants cooks are sometimes told not to go too rare so it’s going to be tougher to get what you’re looking for. And be prepared if you order blue, it’s going to be cold throughout. Not “it sat out for a minute after cooking and cooled down” cold…

I hear you, I’m just a bit disappointed that it doesn’t “just work.” The interface and the ability to merge my music with my streaming content in one spot is great.

I agree, but there’s one big problem for which I can’t find an answer. If I add an album to iTunes on my mac, why doesn’t it show up in my music app on my phone? The reverse works perfectly fine. I don’t want to toggle iCloud music on and off every time I want my iTunes library to match my iPhone music. Spotify, for…

All opinions, especially ill-informed opinions, are not equal. So I see no problem in shitting on him for giving that opinion. But that’s just my opinion. Please don’t shit on me for it.

No matter how hard the guy quoted in that article tries, I’ll never understand his defense of the flag, which is “My great, great, great grandfather and ancestors fought in this war for this state.” That fact that his ancestors fought for a racist and treasonous army shouldn’t fill him with pride, that’s the major…

I was there too. Trapped in a re-payment cycle for about a year and a half after first taking what I thought was a very small, manageable loan. Oliver saying “do literally anything else” is clearly hyperbole used for comedic/dramatic intent. I mean, if Oliver said “literally do anything except start mugging people for…

It doesn’t fly over the state house, it’s on the grounds over the confederate Soldier Monument. It’s lower than the state house flags. It still needs to go.

UberX drivers do have to pick them up. If their ride acceptance rate dips below a certain percentage, they’re deactivated.

The requirements aren’t that strict. Four-door vehicle model year 2000 or later for UberX. I declined a driver with a shit-box extended cab 2003 pick-up about a week ago.
