I hate Pete. If I had to rank which characters I would want to be friends with in real life, he’d be near the bottom. But he’s a great character. His storylines and motivations are interesting to watch. He belongs higher on this list.

Even the third baseman keeps laughing and has a look on his face that says “I can’t believe we’re actually trying this.”

I agree. I can’t listen to them. I guess I’m too visually oriented to be able to fully focus on something that is audio only. Every time I’ve tried to listen to a podcast, all of a sudden I realize that I haven’t heard anything the host said for the last 10 minutes and I have no longer have any idea what he’s talking

How does your list of mascots that you would want at a party not include Dartmouth’s mascot Keggy the Keg?

And this one is just weird: when I was in college, I applied for a job through Craigslist and I got a phone call a few days later to set up an interview. When I get to the address it was a small store front. All the lights inside were off and the door was locked, but there was a sign on the door that said “job

In law school, I had an interview with a law firm for a summer internship. In the interview, one of the first questions I got was “why do you want to be a lawyer?” I had been expecting this question and was prepared because it was the same question that every law school application essay had asked and the first

It’s in the unwritten rules. All the pitchers are going to throw at it.

The Patriots have a bye week 4. Does anyone know if that means Brady is suspended 5 weeks or does he come back after the bye for the game against Dallas? The language seems to suggest that it’s 4 games, not 4 weeks.

Suspending him punishes the other players too. I’m sure the other members of the Patriots would rather have Brady at QB than whoever the backup is.

I know that. It’s obviously a joke. Look at the third block quote (the one from August 2014)

Barack Obama came out in his first campaign and did a 30-second dance on the Ellen Degeneres show. And I said first campaign, really? Would Ronald Regan do that? George Washington? Lincoln?

In NJ, it’s called Taylor Ham barrel spending.

I actually think it’d be pretty easy for a group of, say, 7 or 8 people to spend $2,500 in food at a single game if you sit in a luxury box. I sat in a box at the Barclays Center once. A platter of chicken fingers was $150 and there were like 10-15 chicken fingers. That was one of the cheaper options. That adds up

That one kind of makes sense to me. Different types of liquor taste different. I guess it would be a little more mature to say “I don’t drink whiskey,” but the effect is the same. There’s only a 3 or 4 different commonly-served types of brown liquor compared to many types of green food.

I think your ex might be my college roommate. If he ordered pasta in a restaurant, he would ask them not to put “green stuff” on it, meaning basil or parsley.

It’s kind of a step down for Hoffa, don’t you think? Giants Stadium was much nicer than Oakland Coliseum.

You don’t want to be rude because they might forward your angry response to their friends who work for other employers in the industry. But it can’t hurt to politely send them something explaining that you weren’t trying to lie about your job history, it was just a typo, and it was an anomaly because you’re usually

Well, I think the NFL screwed up in not letting him enter the supplemental draft. It’s obviously an extenuating circumstance that wouldn’t form a precedent. But unfortunately, “not a suspect” the way police use the phrase does not mean “not a suspect” the way an average person uses the phrase. As a result, we don’t

I like how it claims that the Giants cheated by trading for Eli Manning.
