This goes doubly if you are walking anywhere in a city during rush hour. Either walk swiftly or walk out of the way.

Explains why none of the ducks on that show ever wear pants. Except for Launchpad… that prude…

“LeBron James posted a video of himself kneeling on a rubber sphere while waggling a large rubbery wand…”

Yes, that is exactly what he would have you believe. Can I see Josh Bridges, Rich Froning, or some other top CrossFit athlete doing this? Sure. The best Cindy score according to beyondthewhiteboard is 38 rounds, which means someone did 190 pull-ups, 380 push-ups, and 570 squats in 21 minutes. For some additional…

When I did CrossFit I knew guys who ran Murph in the low-to-mid 40's without the weight vest (which is what I guess Junior is claiming). None of them looked as doughy and weak as DTJ does.

This is Josh Bridges, who won Murph at last year’s CrossFit Games with a time of ~34 minutes.

So, if I were Macron and wanted to troll Trump on this trip, I would insist that we dine on a traditional beef tartare. What do you think Trump would do? Refuse and look like an uncultured rube? (Not unfamiliar territory for him…) Just eat it? Ask for his tartare well done?

Can’t speak for others who doubt Congress’ willingness to impeach Trump, but I just think the Republicans are all spineless sheep, looking to fall in line and cash a check. So it’s not that I don’t think Trump should be impeached, but more that I think the Republicans are a bunch of cowardly, sniveling shits, who lack…

I really, really hope that you’re right.

Based on past experience, I would expect Chaffetz’s resolve to last all of a week before he’s back in lock step with Trump and the rest of the GOP.

That’s awesome! Congrats on the progress.

Starting Strength.

I read somewhere (Gizmodo?) that it takes a fraction of the collective US/Russian nuclear arsenal to destroy all human life on earth (I think the number was 100-200 warheads). Chances are, that in an all-out nuclear war between US/Russia we’d all be dead pretty fast. Cold comfort that we won’t be living a real-life…

You are right. They could do that. Unfortunately, the onus would be on you to demonstrate that your employment was terminated for discussing salary at work. The legal system may not be perfect, but it doesn’t make the behavior any less illegal.

In the US, firing an employee for discussing salary is illegal under the National Labor Relations Act.

This is the exact reason I left my first job. I understand the need to implement algorithmic or systemic raises in large companies, but if the company is a slave to those rules, they will inevitably lose top performers as they realize they can command a 25-50% raise elsewhere. (Especially the case if those employees…

From the arguments I’ve seen, though tipping can lead to higher wages, because those wages can be unpredictable and that means workers in those jobs have to factor in that uncertainty to their finances. In some of the restaurants in NYC that have done away with tipping, it was reported that workers find the…

Totally. Also the way she describes his reaction, “angry amusement”, is exactly how I imagine many people would react to that. “Great insight, sweetheart. Glad to hear the only reason you’ve settled for me is because you’re too fat to attract anyone else…”

Fair enough.

I view it kind of like nuclear weapons. At a certain point something is so powerful embarrassing that it doesn’t matter which is more destructive embarrassing because you’ll destroy the world people will think you’re a clown either way.
