a) You probably don’t ride. Believe me, there are plenty of places that are unsafe for a car to pass where it’s no problem for a bike (either due to the bike being able to do the pass or simply because of things like better sightlines due to lane positioning etc). So it comes down to The Law vs. common sense, being…

I can count on 1 hand (with fingers left over) how many times I’ve fired up my Xbox 360 since my son was born 2 years ago. Every once in a while I read a story about Destiny, or Fallout 4, or whatever and I’m like, “Man, I really should consider upgrading to the current generation consoles.” Then I remember I get more…

As an Xbox One come to life, I take issue with this article. The author, as a human (presumably, although from his description and previous writings I suspect he is rather a Sega Dreamcast who got a chef’s knife for Christmas once) cannot help but tout his organic privilege with every rendered character. Have you…

I have an Xbox 360. I never game.* It’s basically a Netflix and ESPN3 conduit to my tee-vee.

The whole point of having a gaming console, is that it is easy to setup and play games.

Don’t sweat the difficulties, Albert. If we know one thing about gamers, it’s that they’re not particularly hypersensitive to any sort of direct or even indirect criticism about their hobby.

Just to spite you, I drove to work with expired inspection and no front plate today.

If this gets them to stop their terrible advertising on my favorite podcasts, I am all for it.

DraftKings will answer the information requests once the attorney general exceeds the minimum for withdrawal (10,000 information requests).

Never underestimate the ability of ego-based marketing to separate steakheads from their money.

My daily fantasy consists of both of these companies going away.

Because I don’t want to hear “Release the Kraken” in my head every time I step on the gas!

The path forward is clear.

I remember the first time I heard about the 12 O’Clock boys: after one of them tried to steal my sister’s iPhone from inside her fucking car while she was driving it. While driving home from work, they swarmed past her, one of them shouted “bitch has an iPhone!” Another one came up on the passenger side and tried to…

wait... i don’t understand. Did.... did you.... wait.... Did you just bring actual evidence to an internet fight???

What Caitlin Goldblatt has omitted from her narrative are three key points:

1) The “well-appointed” elementary school that was slated for closure, Langston Hughes, was hardly closed by the Baltimore City School Board - a mixed-race group chaired by a black man http://www.baltimorecityschools.org/Page/24788 - due to…

While everyone, including the bikers themselves, acknowledges that the sport can be dangerous, riders use hand signals and even ride in grassy areas to avoid intermingling with car traffic.

I’m no fan of Baltimore cops, but these guys are breaking the law...and you’re applauding it? I can think of many other ways these fathers and older kids could make a similar statement and set a more positive example than this.

Very good piece. Many commenters are making good points that there may be specific instances or reasons where the "Truths" might be a bit harsh, but that is the entire point of the piece. If you have goals that aren't being met, defending the status quo will never help. YOu have to challenge your assumptions and…
