Rosanne, the tv show, was great in this regard (and many others). It was actually shocking to see normal people on tv. (BTW, Jaws gets better every time I watch it.)

Fuck your pop-up Subway ads, Gawker.

I thought she was Lindsay Lohan before I opened the link.

Dog death = won’t ever watch.

I recommend buying the Roald Dahl complete set. I read it to my daughter in its entirety and will do so with my son. Really enjoyable for all involved. Coincidentally, I’m reading Runaway Ralph to my son at the moment.

My Honda 1132AT would eat these electric snow throwers and toss their flotsam 50' deep into my neighbor’s yard. (It snows a lot where I live and my Honda was not cheap, but it’s been worth every penny.)

I can never summon any outrage whatsoever when the premise is that dogs are being treated better than humans. I’m okay with that.

Meh. Leitch used to adore Simmons in the early days of Deadspin. I think the new guys can’t help but go after him because he’s become so big and Deadspin identifies itself as an iconoclast. Anyhow, I still like Simmons, particularly his podcasts. The ones with Michael Rapport are incredible. I also really like Joe…

I just spent 30 minutes at work watching Rory Reid videos. He’s great and the only presenter of the six who seems like he could comfortably fit into Clarkson’s Top Gear.

Is there an unspoken rule in hockey fights that forbids headbutting? I feel like there are many opportunities for a well-placed headbutt in a hockey fight.

68 years old and good at Twitter? That is a rare combination. I’m impressed.

The Thunder do fine on the offensive end. It’s their defense that’s the potential problem.

I’ve always wanted to be on a sailboat between Fort Mason and Alcatraz for Fleet Week. There’s probably a 1% chance of an explosive death, but wow.

The only people who give a shit about the skier-snowboarder rivalry these days are suburbanites who ride a half-dozen times a year, have massive goggle gaps, and put chains on the rear wheels of their FWD minivans.

I’m a vegetarian, not a vegan. I converted about seven years ago not because I don’t like meat (good lord, extra moist brisket in Austin is the best thing ever) but for other personal and ethical reasons. Anyhow, I’m not trying to dissuade anybody from eating anything (although I think people should think about what…

2001 Tundra owner here. I live in the mountains and agree that I don’t really need more power. In fact, I’d really like less power and better gas mileage. I drive up steep hills everyday, do some mildish offroading maybe three times a year, and tow the occasional boat, but a V6 would be fine for all that. What I need,…
