Ironically, the 80 year old woman's favorite band was The Sundays.

After getting beaned, Judge arrested the ball for assault declaring, "I am the law."

The '98 loss is viewed as the disease, when in truth it was merely a symptom of something that's been in their system since the day the franchise was born.

Honest question: when is it too much time spent thinking of a joke? I often have to hit eject because the joke jus gets so convoluted at a certain point. I agree that it's necessary to spend some time in the oven (and I totally do the cut/refresh/ctrl+f like EMS) but when do you know it's just better to bail?

My favorite team makes me an asshole of an NFL fan. They perpetually find ways to lose games they shouldn't, choke in the playoffs, and are known for hilariously bad personnel decisions dating back to the ill-fated Herschel Walker trade. The only thing more amusing than that are the off-field fuckups that routinely…

Man, I'd slather that shit all over a cracker - fuck it, even just the countertop - then use my tongue in ways God never intended, then savor every last square inch...

This is highly offensive.

@LBCS -Honestly, I keep it in a range. I think about a joke for a minute or so before posting, but if I'm spending like ten minutes trying to think of something I just abandon the thread because it'll just be overwrought.

I think the issue of the recontextualization joke is that folks often use it as a crutch or think that the method itself is funny, rather than use it to deliver a joke. It also lends itself to weird reaches and tangents; someone gloms on a word, then turns it into a totally random joke that's not related at all to the…

What ScientificMapp and SSE said hit the nail on the head. There are also, occasionally, exogenous factors beyond one's control that play into a comment's response. If the thread has a low number of eyeballs, if the comment gets sent to "see earlier discussion" land, if it comes in a little late and then three posts…

Take this, frame it, love it, have sex with it. Perfectly sums up commenting in so many ways.

That was mighty cold-blooded of CBS.

Gary Is Gone

Let's say it was Michelle, and 17,000 people joined a list of objectors, would Indy cancel?

Calling the President's wife overweight doesn't make you a racist, but it does make you a petty asshole. Also, before you decide to bust out big words like "facist," it may help to know what that word means (Protip: it doesn't fit the context you just used it in. Also, it's spelled "fascist").

People do think of great things when they're board and have lots of free time. For instance, look at John Yoo.

You're like a fucking COBRA.

Awesome, thanks for the reply. I may hit you up with a PM on ca.deadspin in the future. I just started this process so I have a lot of work ahead still.
