I’ve done Murph a couple times (no vest), and I think my best time ever was around 55 minutes. For comparison, I can run a mile in 5:30, two miles at 13:00 without feeling particularly winded, rock climb regularly at V4s pushing to V5s, and oh yeah, I played in the fucking NFL.

There are those who will read this and think “Why, yes, I do want this con man to head our country, because we’ll be the beneficiaries of his grifts and swindles” without realizing that they’re the ones being swindled.

A lot of his revived image this season centered around his interactions with kids, etc. As their role model, he had an opportunity to teach those children how to handle adversity and how to lose graciously. He failed them. I’m probably overly naive.

Honest question: does it really ruin the experience/enjoyment for you if you are spoiled? Doesn't the story have any merit beyond its ability to surprise you?

Do it.

You needn't be obvious.

SHUT UP! I still send Julie Brown hate mail because I wasn't expecting a Citizen Kane spoiler in "The Homecoming Queen's Got a Gun" All art must go on pause until I've seen it. Then they can ignore everyone else who hasn't watched/read it.

There's really not much of an excuse for not reading The Hobbit if you enjoy the story/idea/subject matter, I read it in an afternoon when I was 7. It's only 310 pages long.

Right, here we go:

No one's saying they do not deserve to derive enjoyment from their preferred medium of delivery.

Nope; I thought I'd add my form of employment as a basis for my ire—but I've felt this way since I was in undergrad (I was in my junior year of undergraduate studies when The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring dropped in theaters.
