Leo Bloom is the accountant from The Producers? Is he named as a reference to Leopold Bloom from James Joyce’s Ulysses?
Yeah, that episode was pandering to a nauseating degree.
I found “Dear White People,” the show and movie to be infinitely more insightful and yes, entertaining than Get Out.
I find the movie to be quite overrated, but that young man is an asshole and is full of shit.
I have to agree.
I have to agree. I don’t think Get Out is mandatory viewing. I thought that the social commentary was quite obvious, but not everyone reads Jezebel/TheRoot as obsessively as I do.
oh, yeah, that makes more sense.
25% of the players’ future MLB money?
“I’d say watching a 38 year old hit a 3 pointer is akin to seeing a 35 year old hit a home run.”
Thanks. It seems that we generally agree about the reasons why star NBA players are able to last longer than before. Who are some current NBA players who probably would not be allowed to play in the NBA if they were the age of the Dream Team? I think that maybe Kyle Korver and Dirk Nowitzski’s current skill levels…
I am a high school teacher, math, formerly history. It really disappoints me to read so many articles about teachers who completely drop the ball. This is especially true since I get dinged and called into the principal’s office over the most idiotic things.
Maybe I am just a hardass, but I think that no age is too young to have a science fair project which is completely devoid of science.
I guess, but I knew a 9 year old who was so proud of getting an A on his science project. His topic was Egyptology, and he had a great looking poster with pictures and information about the pyramids and the pharoahs. It looked great, but I saw no science there and wonder how he got an A, and even how he got approved.
I think I may have been making a bigger deal of this than it really is. Watching 32 year old JR Smith do this is really like watching a 32 year old hit a home run, which isn’t really that big of a deal. Although, maybe Smith here is pretty awesome since he got his own article on it.
I am more of a baseball guy, with basketball a distant second in terms of my knowledge and fandom. It seems that baseball players are aging worse lately with the demise of PEDs and no more widespread amphetamines (greenies), and pitchers are throwing far faster than in decades past.
“Fuck charter schools.” Yeah, a lot of people are doing that these days. What is your reason?
Yep. It got off to a bad start with the injuries to Jeremy Lin and Gordon Hayward. I wanted to see what Lin and his hairstyle could do this season.
“The pay is better” at Catholic schools? Are you sure? Catholic school faculty is traditionally members of the clergy who took vows of poverty, and the lay teachers likewise take a pay cut. I went to Catholic school for k-8 and it was common knowledge that the teachers made less than public school teachers.
nice one.
