Since you clearly already enjoy it, have you considered rolling them in crack? I bet that'd kick it up several notches. (Seriously though, vinegar and salt always works. Sounds terrific.)

I had a tentative change of heart about brussels sprouts a few weeks ago, and in my case the recipe that finally did the trick was roasting them after rolling them in oil, sea salt and pepper. I think there was also lemon juice. [edit: Fresh! Frozen brussels sprouts are only useful as projectiles. Disgusting, hateful…

My mom had a similar rule. I would say, "I can't find my book, it's not where you said." She would say, "Yes it is. If I come up there and find it exactly where I said, can I smack you?" I would reassess my level of certainty, look again, and say, "Oh, wait. I found it."

First of all, it's illegal, not to mention dangerous, to carry a bucket of confetti on the court while the ball is in play. Second, how is it not a travel to walk around with the ball under your jersey? I'm starting to think these refs are being paid off.

I hear you. To some extent, I can see it as "We wouldn't complain if we didn't care." Certainly, Deadspin and the other gawker sites have shown the capability of generating truly interesting and original content, which does make it a little extra disappointing to find mundane or regurgitated content with an…

You're perfectly entitled to complain about it, and many of the titles do fall along the continuum from Mildly Overstated to Egregiously Overwrought & Outright Deceptive. Then again, I find most of the complaints about this phenomenon to fall in that same range. Not yours, particularly, but there are so many…

Idea: please knowingly attract fewer readers and so make less money at your jobs, in order that I don't have use my own common sense and discernment when agonizing over which article titles are worthy of clicking. Remember, once a click has been clicked, it can never be un-clicked.

I believe that should be "I just can't stop watching these bananas dunk."

Not me. I thought he was going to dunk a bunch of bananas.

By the way, Utz crab chips are the best. I have drool crab-dribbling down my chin just thinking about them.

I assume so, what with sucking so many dicks to pay for their fancy legal educations. Anyway, I notice you didn't question that all the white players are good students! Secret racist! Caught!

If people resent being condescended to, they should consider being better at basketball while doing things the right way, with lots of white players. Who are rich. And good students.

Maybe you've never heard of a guy called Knute Rockne? Nobody's turning him away at the door.

I'm totally on board with this, and have felt great when I've purposefully worked on it. The trouble I'm having, and that I would love help with from this site and its commentors, is in turning a far-separated series of purposeful exercises into a habit that is so ingrained that it actually changes how I breathe when…

Seems like there are a lot of ways this graphic (which is lovely and very cool) could be beefed up. The first that occurs to me is incorporating proportionally uneven line-thickness between nodes, indicating uneven pass directionality between those players (thick at the dominant passer's end, tapering to the…

Big deal, the Cubs bear mascot can catch his twin's balls in his mouth. (NSFW)

Sorry, I refuse to look at any dunk highlights that aren't in the form of a rotoscoped animation.

I'm sure you're right, but it reads amusingly to a semantic fussbudget who is easily amused. Which I am. Still, I suppose I shouldn't poke fun because my (single) undergrad degree is in Behavior, Evolution, Ecology and Systematics.

Are you maybe talking about the time he tried to come into the crowd because a Maryland fan hit his mom in the head with a balled-up newspaper? Because if that's what you're talking about, I was there and can confirm that it happened. But as far as I'm aware, that is the only thing he ever did.
