Why does it have to be over? What am I supposed to watch now? I’m v. sad. :(

HAHAHA! I don’t know if this image is true or a fabrication, but if real, apologies accepted, American Team, you’re amazing and next time you come here, the first round of caipirinha is on us!

I’m mad I didn’t discover the NBC Olympics app sooner. Their coverage was terrible, but the app live streamed literally everything and there were replay options. Also minimal commentary (often none!). Wish I had gotten my slalom canoe on via the chrome cast.

Did you see the Lochte interview with Lauer they aired. It was complete garbage and he non-apologized during it.

THIS is when Qin Kai should’ve proposed to He Zi.

Confession: I get a little emotionally wibbly when they extinguish the cauldron. Don’t know why.

I knew there had to be a down side to canceling a few times, gah, no way to exert control.

All I know is that if anyone wants to get their offense licks in one last time, the week Gawker.com closes operations is the time to do it.

The problem is that the people she’s tweeting about make their living from making their personal lives our business.

But nonetheless it’s a shitty joke and a stupid thing to write.

This is like a loop de loop. People telling Bette Midler to get educated about trans rights because she tweeted about Caitlyn Jenner, when Caitlyn Jenner was once a wealthy white Republican man who is now a wealthy white Republican woman who herself needs to be educated about LGBTQ rights...*shakes head* Anyway the…

yeah, Bette Midler of all people is transphobic. People are fucking idiots sometimes. Got no problem with her tweet. Caitlyn Jenner is trash and a publicity whore. She also was when she was Bruce and a man. Then milked it to a bunch of bullshit “courage” awards that even the transgender community wasn’t on board with.

Several things. I got in and it reeked of pot, it was shaking a lot more than a well maintained car should, and to top it off the driver said “I’m going to stop for gas on the way.” I said I wasn’t comfortable with that and he tried to argue with me. So I told him to stop and hopped out.

In many of the cities I’ve lived in there’s a big difference in price, reliability and service areas. Before Uber it was understood that certain places were SOL trying to get a cab to come out to their neighborhood, or accept credit cards vs cash or pick up the damn phone after 8pm on a Friday. I’ve also never really…

Especially since sex offenders aren't really that reformable.

This isn’t entirely accurate. Minicab companies in the UK have no requirement to vet drivers, only black/Hansom cabs. That’s why minicabs aren’t allowed to pick you up on the street, they aren’t licensed for that.

It’ll be a while before we have truly driverless cars. Laws still require that there be a human in the driver’s seat for now.

Yeah that’s what it seems like, like he was driving around going “hey do you need a ride, I work for Uber”. They also have Uber stickers on their car.

This is the type of Mongol fury that knocks down city walls!
