On the bright side, this should give the Rams some added leverage when negotiating Fisher’s next contract. 

Saying hello and thank you as some one is ringing up your books does not equate to wasted time it equates to being a polite respectful human being. You strike me as some one who is despised by most of the wait staff at restraunts you frequent...

So your theory is that because I work in IT, you, and any employee without IT in their title, are totally absolved of any and all responsibility when it comes to anything in your job duties related to the term “technology”? Or is it just that you believe that any person who does not choose to take personal…

I think part of the challenge of that level involved doing things that aren’t just boxes you can check in existing apps. Tasks that might require you to use more than one tool or creative problem solving. So, in this case, one way to do it is to run a Gmail search for emails from John Smith, then a second search for…

This is a fascinating development to me. I feel like I grew up roughly in parallel with consumer electronics. When I was like five or six, we used a DOS computer. By the time I was 10, we were up to Windows 95. XP landed around high school. Windows 7 just after college. Now that I’ve got a solid start on my career,…

An unfortunate part of my job involves hiring people, mostly young people. I am seeing a whole new wave of computer ignorance displayed by people who have been interacting with the internet primarily with phones and tablets for most of their lives. We have hired several people in the last year or two that were totally…

Baseball is the only sport that actually looks like America.

Another plus, we won’t have to worry about Florida on election night when it’s underwater.

Then don’t fucking read it. No one cares whether you like a feature or not.

I think it’s kind of sad how he sidelined his own best judgment in deference to a figure of authority, an authority whose own judgment is not to be questioned, and it cost him his own better interests while only furthering the narrow interests of the organization that authority represents.

Harbaugh is a whiny little kid, I’ve watched him take enough penalties for sideline temper tantrums to know that.

Pats fan here. We may be despicable and scum and everything that’s been pointed out.... but the ‘discussion’ in this thread is the dumbest fucking thing I’ve read in months in the Deadspin comments, and that’s saying something.

Rams are giving up 6.9 yards per plays to the Saints.

This is the same team that was bitching about the Patriots exploiting the rule book right??

BEER. That’s right! FIGHT ME, BRO.

Yup. Good coffee is good; but you don’t need to pay a barista to fuss around a ceramic cone for it. Aeropress or french press at home, paired with any reasonable bean, will be delicious. For me, the grocery store cutoff is Dunkin’ Donuts or 8 o’clock. Both are pretty good, but you don’t want to go any cheaper.

Artisanal coffee is bullshit, but cheap coffee is ass. There’s a bell curve, with the top being good stuff you buy in a grocery store. Rule of thumb: if you’re paying more than a dollar an ounce, you’re buying bullshit; but if you’re paying less than $5 a pound, you’re buying ass.

This line is good as hell.

Rodgers is a transcendent quarterback who is forgetting about his family 50 years ahead of his peers.
