Balderdash, Burneko. Hitchbot may have been a tin can, but he was a whimsy-infused tin can! He didn’t do anything earth-shattering except bring joy to all those who encountered him, which is one of the worthiest functions someone or something can perform. The missing link who shattered his frail body, and you, can not…

RIP # 54. You were too white for this world.

Not really. Earlier this month a guy in Maine got drunk, tried to launch a firework off his head, and the explosion killed him. No one is blaming booze in his case, not even his poor mother who is busy trying to get Maine to reinstate their fireworks ban. Since no one blamed alcohol for causing the firework to blow…

The dose wasn't toxic. He didn't die from the amount of cannabis he died because he jumped off the roof.

Toxicity did not cause this death.

I used to play pretty seriously. The rules are simple. The main goal is to achieve “The Queen’s Errand,” or have the most netted balls by the end of the crow’s watch.

#longreads - Wes is having his recovery closely followed. Cool surgery scar pic in part 2.

Another year in the cellar for the Cleveland Women, though.

I could be misinterpreting the article, but it seems as if you’re suggesting that because LeBron is so good at basketball he should disregard his head coach? I’m fine with that, if, in fact, Blatt is inept (though I do not believe he is). I also agree about the general kowtowing to the traditional notion of the coach…

There’s a third option. Lebron can try to be more coachable. Doesn’t seem to be a problem for lots of other all-time greats.

Mothers can do literally nothing that pleases the world.

If I ever have a kid, and I ever split with the mother, I would hope that someone close to me would punch me in the balls if I ever tried to pull low-blow legal shenanigans like this...

This whole thread is full of salty Lebron James fanboy tears.
