Personally, (and I guess this needs to be said) I supported Kaepernick’s decision to not stand as a form of protest. It was subtle, poignant, and about as far away from “attention seeking” as one can get. Honestly, the only reason it got so much media coverage was because people who disagreed with him wouldn’t shut up…

Putting your health at risk for some invisible man in the clouds is genius! 

On the reverse side, everyone has become so phobic about hearing about spoilers that it becomes whiny nonsense. You willingness to pursue other venues and take the time to enjoy something does not give you the right to be upset because someone else has seen it and discusses it with people not you.

It sounds like even if it would have been released at an episode a week, you wouldn’t have been watching in sync with your friends. If spoilers bother you and you are mostly seeing them through social media, it is on you to set up mutes and filters and stop whining because your friends like watching tv and movies more…

I get that it might not be important to everyone, but I’m sorry, I can’t get on board with skipping episodes of a good serialized TV show. I would skip the entire series before skipping episodes.

Sounds like serialized TV might not be your thing.

A lot of this is on you. In fact, all of it is. You can turn off your Facebook notifications, or you can simply get better at time management. Then, you can realize that people didn’t wait a month to tell you who Luke Skywalker’s dad was, so I don’t know why you think the world has changed so much. My mom spoils…

not even cynicism. Some of the writers here ( like this one ) just seem to actually hate any white person 

Seriously. The cynicism here on The Root is a bit much for this black man.

Fuck this wypipo for caring a little.

Health care is a right in this country. But having someone else cover the costs, is not a right that’s a privilege. And most people get that benefit through their job.

No thanks. I’ll continue to voice my (just-as-valid-as-your) opinion, and boycott shitty airlines whenever I can. That’s how you do it. We can’t call the company and direct them to make changes, but we can call and let them know we’re not buying their tickets until they do. That’s how I adult. You can stick with your…

Yes buttercup. That’s exactly how you do it. I know adulting is hard but dealing with situations where you have no control comes with the territory.

I’m sorry....

Cough cough...Gordon Ramsay..cough cough.

Tips are insane at places like this and the experience means that you have a better shot of getting hired at another place with insane tips.

I always find it funny when people bitch about Chef’s Table, somehow failing to realize that it is about the Chef’s and their stories, the food is not the focus.

I cut the cord a couple years ago and haven’t looked back. I was tired of the same LeBron, Tiger, Yankees, etc. headlines repeating at SC. I’m on the record several times hating SAS and everything he brings. I do miss college Gameday but that’s about it.

The layoffs yesterday were nonsense.

Yo ESPN, let me just easily stream you for $5 a month. Or don’t? I don’t care because I’ll still watch the games with or without you. Take it or leave it - signed America
