I think this is a good rule in the political correctness debate:
I think this is a good rule in the political correctness debate:
"Meh" contains so much to hate in such a small space. Your desire to comment on an article with an unconstructive put-down, your seeming apathy at the same time. Typing "meh" made me dislike you at a core level in three letters. Impressive really.
But they were. Every second counts in a game.
It's a hipster sport. Everyone in this country I know who is a soccer fan is either foreign (forgivable) or some young urban professional. I assume the AV Club staff is giddy with excitement as well.
One thing a pro told me once, that I did not know. Linemen pinch each other constantly. It sounds silly, but in cold weather it will often break the skin. So they're constantly like gouging each others skin and it's very hard to tell the difference between that and mere contact.
You do know sports announcers have people who do the math and statistics for them right? They don't know off the top of their head that "this is the only time in ten years that the Yankees have lost after trailing by at least 7 points in the 9th inning".
Ravens v Broncos divisional playoffs in 2013. Torrey Smith up the sideline for the tying catch. Two special teams touchdowns from the Broncos. 38-35 in double overtime. Now that's a game.
"Political Correctness" is such a straw man. People love to bash it in theory, but then they are asked, "So how do you feel about so and so calling another person a dumb nigger?" and everyone says, "Yeah, fuck that person." I don't think people disagree so much that you shouldn't insult entire groups of people.
Other White Men Who Should be Working in Middle of Day Agree
He sounds like such a.. Old Man!!!
So it's designed to teach us the futility of monopoly capitalism. Now the game makes a hell of a lot more sense.
You're forgetting that he was named Lord of Harrenhall AND Lord Paramount of the Trident. The Trident is the name for the region containing the three large rivers of the Riverlands. In other words, all of the Riverlands. The Trident includes the Riverlands.
Fair enough. For most of the decades anyway. The 90's were awesome though. We won the Cold War, we were considered all powerful, the shitty politicians worked together in some big ways, not so much in others. balanced the budget, and had a period of solid economic growth. Also grunge. So actually quite good really.
Congratulations! Go get yourself a prize from the prize section.
Am I the only person who found True Detective's ending really enjoyable? There is no giant conspiracy of mystic forces and dark cults forcing the world towards a darker path. There is simply the chaos, and there is room for good in chaos.
No, the 2000's were terrible. Economic stagnation (for almost all of us anyway), bullshit social fights over gay marriage, two wars that tore this country apart (let alone Iraq and Afghanistan), Freedom Fries, George W Bush and Dick Cheney. The movies and TV tended towards hyper-fearful stories of the unknown and…
Again ^ The problem with showing none of the supporting characters. I know it's weird to complain about a lack of characters on Game of Thrones, but when you show none of the mid-level Lords you get no sense of who's controlling what in each area. While the Freys hold two large pieces of land in the Riverlands, there…
I agree, the Riders of Rohan, and the ghost army for that matter, looked like a great big CGI tidal wave that passed over a CGI army and when it went past the army wasn't there anymore.
Ugh, you brought The Walking Dead into a talk about The Wire, GOT, Breaking Bad, and the Sopranos??? Get out of here!
I just thought Stannis's army was like the Riders of Rohan descending on the armies at Pelenor Fields, but better. Kind of made me wish for a remastered version of the Lord of the Rings to be released.
