I mean, it is dumb. On the other hand, preparing to have a child is such a terrible melange of hormones and expectations and stress you might as well do something dumb and fun if you want to.

So, I completely agree with your analysis of this, it was one of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen. But, I think one important thing to note is that when a (left-handed) first baseman makes that play, they are taught to tag the bag, and if they have time, to come to the cut of the grass to give themselves a…

This guy doesn’t clean his own bathroom.

Fuck that.

So, it is currently an unknown variable.

Still bothers me IF it was her workphone. As a gov’t employee with a worphone, an on-call phone AND pager, then my personal phone... I know much better than to even read the news with my work phone. Data monitored, them requiring me to have them know my itunes password and unlock pin... yikes...

Increasing property values are only good if you see your house as an asset you want to liquidate.

Yeah, but you only realize that increase in value if you sell the house. Until then, it’s just a bigger bill.

I don’t know, man. I think that’s a fairly room-dependent thing. The casino I generally play in (Foxwoods) does a pretty good job of keeping things under control. I think Black Friday was the main driver in the decline of poker in America. The large crowds in live poker rooms were fed by people trying poker out…

Maybe you haven’t heard but tweets from that account are to be considered presidential statements.

That is what they literally wrote, how else are we supposed to take it?

Simple fixes:

This seems like one of those ideas that someone pitched to the Mayor as a splashy policy that would generate a lot of “tough love” good publicity, but lord will it have massive amounts of unforeseen (or completely foreseeable from some peoples’ points of view) consequences. For instance; disabled children won’t get a…
