And that is Chevron’s fault?

"I'm gonna preface this by saying that I love Sage Steele. She's black and cool and smart and elegant. These are all good things, things everyone should strive to be"

so this article is your garden variety low hanging fruit pandering that deadspin is great at and it appeals to sanctimonious idiots who tend to make up the population of commenters.

But why are we picking on the NFL here? They have a franchise and the combine? That is truly pathetic. It just seems so random to go with the NFL here for the state where basketball was invented.

Wait I thought businesses did not have to serve everyone... I know for sure they discriminate against the shirtless and shoeless. There are also many businesses that discriminate by gender for what appears to be no good reason. College have been in the business of discriminating against the stupid for a very long…

But you're not just talking to people around you is the OP's point. You know you are trying to pick them up and you are only pretending you aren't. I mean if you're genuinely not trying to pick them up then no one would need to be taking any suggestions and the OP wouldn't find that awkward. No one ever comes up with…

what if i told you that the calories in affects the calories out. lets take gluconeogenesis for example. about a third of your protein calories is spent in the process of converting protein to energy. converting carbs to energy is a pretty straight forward process that has the side effect of leading to greater fat…

Well that disproves everything we know about how insulin works. Its either you understand the physiology or you don't. If i find an example of someone who stopped eating carbs and lost weight or someone who started eating carbs and gained weight would that convince you? no it wouldn't and it shouldnt. human metabolism…

Yeah that is a very terrible rebuttal... Consider the first rebuttal. Fat people who claim not to be eating too much are just underreporting their calories. This is crazy. First of all do you then believe that if any 2 people eat the same calories they will have approximately the same body? There is no way you believe…

Of course you could do that but you most likely won't be successful. Insulin drives hunger on the back end of its cycle. So yeah you could just ignore being hungry but you probably wouldn't. Thats the point. You can't control what you do when you get hungry, best you can do is put yourself in a position not to get…

Both arguments are right... if you ate 6000 calories it will not be the same as eating 600 calories a day but the point is that the likelyhood that you eat 6000 calories is very much controlled by the type of calories you eat and your endocrine systems.

my argument still stands and the analogy is apt. The point isn't about which is better since they both serve different needs. If I'm low on charge after work as I head to the gym, your solution is useless to me. There are other such use cases.

your argument is akin to someone who claims that people who require bike paths are stuck in the past and proceeds to list every advantage of having a car without the self awareness to consider the possibility people who still want bikes are not idiots but simply have a different set of needs from what your advanced…

first of all those estimates are speculative bullshit. But if we assume they're not tell me about the 10% deaths that remain. What will be the mechanism of failure? This is just as important or more important than the lives saved. This is why air travel terrify most people although it's many times safer than driving.…

Wait so you think FIFA should fund stadiums in Brazil out of pocket? You realize how ridiculous the alternative you appear to be proposing sounds? How many Tennis arena's does the WTA own?

"it pulled in more than $2 billion last year, nearly all of that from the World Cup."

"Someone should've, could've stepped to the ball, at some point"

It always puzzles me when we get all high and mighty about an NFL team signing one person who has done really bad things when the league is full of people who have done really bad things. He is getting a job to be a battering ram not a daycare worker. Without us, and this guy specifically, that usually wouldn't be a…

So may be you should've just written that

Also browsers! I really haven't had a problem with the speed of the internet because my browser has been too busy sucking up all my memory or crashing Flash. I have no idea what a fast internet will look like, so my pages will load in 0.1 seconds and not 0.2 seconds?.. when the browser is functioning and i don't have…
