It means Zenith.

And Krasnaya Polyana (the “Red Meadow” where the Sochi ski jumping was held) was only called that because of how the sun looks setting over the mountains and has nothing to do with thousands of massacred Circassians...

No, they do that too. Having lived there, Russia is one of the most virulently racist places I’ve ever seen, including even for “lesser” gradations of white (especially literal Caucasians). If ethnic Russians use the n-word for Georgians and Armenians, do you really want to dig into the cesspit to find what they think…

This is my favorite thing about baseball. Just all the weird shit that happens literally multiple times every season. There’s always some obscure stat that hasn’t happened since 30 years ago that comes to light in the strangest way. 

Yes, and you can probably fix it with a hammer. These things were great. NP all day long.

I mean, it had a pretty epic lineup. The logistics and planning were off-the-charts horrific however.

Nah, you still had to file. Maybe the government was less likely to check before, but if he came as a kid and never formalized his status, then he’s been here illegally for decades regardless of the wife or kids. They don’t automatically legitimate his status, though they could have filed to legitimate him. It sucks,…

Can we talk about how this is supposed to be a three-day festival, and Smashing Pumpkins/Noel Gallagher are already scheduled to perform at Merriweather Post on the 17th? Somehow I don’t see either Billy Corgan or Noel Gallagher being very accommodating for this.

It’s got four doors and an engine, what more do you want?

Stairs are my mortal fear with small kids. My daughter almost fell down the stairs when she was 2. We had the gate open because we’d just come up and not closed it yet. I saw her start to fall and then she fortunately managed to catch herself three steps down and I was able to get her back up. As soon as that shock…

Only now?

Captains chairs are doable. Third row, no. Even at the dealer, they recommended the third row for kids.

Holy goddamn.

No worries. Religion’s a rough topic around here sometimes.

Oh, no giving him a pat on the back. His book fucked up my relationships and potential relationships for a very long time and I’m not just going to just let that slide. However, I am waiting to see what he does with this before I decide his conversion story is fake. I know how hard mine was, and simply don’t expect…

His dad was a preeminent home school guru. His parents may not have written the book directly, but there’s no doubt that his writings were a reflection of his parents.

I hear you, I really do. But the one thing that people who grew up outside of the evangelical church don’t understand is how insidious it is. What you’re seeing now is only the tail end of what was likely (speaking from personal experience) a very long conversion/exit. I’m only a few years younger than Harris, and…

See, the problem is that you’re equating them with legitimate entertainment. I’m telling you that they’re scam artists and don’t deserve more regard than any other scam artist.

Dude, if you elect to send your money to the Nigerian Prince, you don’t deserve a good customer service experience in doing so.

You forgot lesbian. That really seemed to clog a lot of people’s grills as well.
