True, except in this case it’s not the price of crude that’s the problem. The price of crude is way down, but gas keeps going up because refineries are taking in record profits just because they can. And for the US, that is Exxon and their ilk. cf.…

Brake checking and left-lane squatting on a highway are explicitly illegal everywhere. Brake checking is definitionally a form of aggressive driving or road rage and commonly treated as reckless driving by many states. You can find this with a quick Google, as it’s an important component of fault for rear-end…

Wrong. The Raptor also endangered the lives of many people, and excusing that as “rude” really misses the point.

Why should someone have to ask their partner to share equitably in domestic labor? I am a man, and my wife doesn’t need to ask me to do my share because I’m not a complete fucking asshole with no regards for my partner’s labor.

Lol, Hades is a simple campaign / story-based single-player game. That’s literally the core of the game.

This is not true because there are plenty of history podcasts that cover recent events or living people, including quite recently one about the Iraq War that covered a lot of living people in excruciating detail. There are no good reasons to e.g. tiptoe around the evils of Henry Kissinger (many occurring 40-50 years…

Cruel?? Why in the world are you caping for the British monarchy, which is filled to the brim with awful people afforded immense wealth and privilege as an accident of birth? Sure, the monarchy has managed to carefully curate their image through mondo PR spending, but surely you can’t be this daft? “oh no, these people…

I would disagree given the state of the US government, but then perhaps we should not consider the US a developed nation...

You have no idea how heartening it is that this comment helped someone! Good luck out there!

Look, I don’t expect much from G/O Media at this point, but you can’t just tell people look at this great stainless steel cookware set “built for quick and even heating”! This is a disc-bottomed cookware set, which means there is an aluminum disc on the bottom for faster heating. Contrast with a fully clad cookware…

Lmao. 

So this is a lie, and easily fact-checked. Indeed, many comments prior to yours mention that Sanders supporters converted to HRC better than HRC to Obama — which is rather shocking when you think about the differences in platform, no? Is it not telling that much of HRC’s support in 2008 was happy with a Republican…

No, they were the engineering consultant. Aaron (understandably) does not know the industry terminology, which means this article kept giving me whiplash as I tried to decipher who was who. 

I’m going to fucking miss this place, and your vast presence, Drew. You were always a joy to read — introspective and open, funny and gross, and always enthralling. It was the unique blend of amazing writers and great commenters that made Deadspin the best website on the Internet, and your writing tied it together.

Farmers Insurance mate

You legendary motherfucker.

fwiw, I think you are absolutely in the target demographic here. The attraction of Deadspin is that it’s sports, politics, and culture. The writing here is so good that I even read about fucking hockey!

Or you could read this more sensibly and understand that what he’s saying is that a large restriction on the amount of meat we eat is needed or else climate change abatement won’t work. He's absolutely not saying that going vegan is mutually exclusive with other facets of climate change abatement (and pollution…

I think the level of outrage can be traced in large part to the bungling of the situation by the Astros. Taubman’s actions get reported, the Astros claim to do an investigation, blah blah blah business as usual: it all blows over. Instead, as the article quotes from Marc Craig, the Astros released a statement claiming…

After the false start the play clock starts counting down from 0:25. When the play clock hits 0:17, the game clock starts to run. Anyone know why?
