I’ve spent much of my day ardently defending Gawker in the comments section of various new articles. Lots of it begins with “BUT DEADSPIN”

Aw, I love Erlich. His best moments are when he decides to stop being a lazy asshole and actually contribute. He has flashes of genius, and he really does have Richard’s back (unquestionably taking his side in board meetings, offering to give handjobs to every member of the TechCrunch Disrupt audience, etc.)

Doesn’t Great Harvest Bread do this? And they’re a bakery chain...

Did you end up losing weight from the intermittent fasting? I’ve been doing the 5-2 diet (fasting 2 days a week) for about five weeks, and have lost a little weight, but not much.

Yeah - I needed to replace my iPod last year and had to hunt around to find an iPod classic. I paid about $250 for a 6th generation, 80 GB iPod classic (which is a bargain, I guess! Or maybe 6th gen is “too new?” )

I saw someone float the idea of having one host city on each continent, and then cycle through them. For example, Australia, South America, and Africa could all have a summer host. Europe, Asia, North America could have a winter host.

Same. I think a big part of it for me is the change from once every 4 years, to the staggered schedule that ensures we have an Olympics every 2 years. I know, I know — different seasons, different events. But there is so much hype around them, that each new Olympics I’m thinking, “Wait, didn’t we just finish one?”

I would’ve liked to see them in silver.

Yeah. It just looks like someone went in and tried to remove the crease that happens when you bend your arm at the elbow. I know a common PS move is to remove joint creases, and sometimes they do a shitty job with it.

Is there some kind of weird photoshop blunder going on with her arm in that pic?

I love that too, but I gotta admit that last year’s was a bit of a letdown.

The 74 page affidavit is an advocacy piece, not facts that have been corroborated.

Yeah, WTF is up with that? A ton of new info came with that court filing they published.

Apparently he has closer to $50 million saved. He’s been living off endorsement deals and “other business ventures.” (warning, there’s an auto-play video at the link):

From what I’ve heard from other people who live nearby and have actually watched it, they’re pretty blown away by how the media misrepresented what was actually going on in the courtroom.

This game was wonderful.

Are there Jameis Winston gay rumors? I’m missing the reference here.

Yeah - and I don’t know how old the OP is, but if anything like that happened in the past ~15 years, there’d be a news story that would turn up on Google.
