I also found her letter to be very cautious. She wasn’t trying to be inflammatory or even assertive, but rather she was trying to provoke a conversation. The tone was more like, “what about this idea? How should we view that?”. They caused me to think. Not necessarily agree with her, but to think about it, which I…

As much as I don’t like the people who are going to side with you, because most of them will be shit (I’m speaking of the commentariat here), I have to agree.

Did anyone actually read the Yale professors response to the halloween costume letter?

Sure, play right into their apocalyptic ideology and create a few hundred thousand martyrs in the process, not to mention all the other bonuses that come with a nuclear detonation, like a drifting radiation cloud in a region where the west has damned few friends as it is. Great thinking, what could possibly go…

I never understood the F30 hate on Jalopnik. BMW is one of the few companies that offers a sports sedan with a inline 6 turbo and 6 speed manual for less $50k. Even the ZF 8 speed automatic shifts extremely quick and there is nothing wrong with the N20 engine in the 328i.

This is beyond horrifying.

You are seriously, SERIOUSLY overestimating the number of “real hunters” in the country. You’re also confused about this clown’s aspirations.

This is American rich person hunting, equivalent to English Noble’s pheasant hunting where the Lords sit on the firing line while birds were flushed to them.

I guarantee you that field was seeded with captive birds and the guides worked the dogs and got a bird to sit, walked Huckabee up, then flushed the bird for him.

Imagine a cop did this to your kid. In fact, imagine anyone did this to your kid.

On the plus side: No Joe Buck or Harold Reynolds!

I translate as follows:

OF course every one has their own tastes, but my favorite “snacking apple” is the Empire apple. Full of yum!

“black Americans have a higher % of people who are criminal prone”

The weird thing is, if the Yankees had shown just a little professionalism themselves, they probably wouldn’t have lost 15-1.

I work in finance and the “pay cash for everything” people really are hurting themselves. You have to look at opportunity cost and other factors before making that decision.

Pretty typical of a Red to blame history on Bourgeois instincts.

I view this as the advantage of the EcoBoost engines (and other turbocharged engines). For 90% of the time when you don’t need massive amounts of power, there is no boost and your mileage is pretty decent. For the 10% of the time when you need more power, boost kicks in and your fuel economy sucks. That seems like a…

Stop exaggerating Deadspin!!!! It was from a long way out, but clearly not as far as San Jose.

I think this country has enough assholes running around. We don't need another one occupying public office.

In a victory for sports fans who have enjoyed their stellar coverage, NBC Sports will hang onto Premier League rights for the next six seasons. [NY Times]
