This is actually the most dignified thing to happen in Congress this month.

It doesn’t really matter now because his political career is likely over, but I’m surprised that the media didn’t really pay any attention to the fact that Chafee is a 9/11 conspiracy theorist. A few months ago, I saw a clip on tv of an old speech (2008 or 2009) he gave where he was saying that we need to investigate…

Daniel Murphy used to play like this when the Mets made him an outfielder early in his career. It’s actually kind of surprising that he’s still on the team. He’s always been on the team for his bat, but (this postseason aside), he’s only been a good hitter, not a great one. A lot of people thought that what he…

I agree completely. There seems to be some people with the attitude “you should never drink anything InBEV AB makes because they make Bud Light and Bud Light is bad, therefore every beer they make is bad.” That doesn’t make any sense to me. Sure Bud Light is bad and I rarely drink it, but that doesn’t mean that they…

I don’t think you get to accuse anyone of being an elitist in the same article that you recommend a $450 backpack.

I’m not trying to correct you. The server did everything correctly. I just think it’s a bad idea to assume everyone who eats a food that they claim to be allergic to is an idiot or a liar. They know how their body reacts.

I know that’s not a good assumption to make. But “person with allergy eats food that has has the thing they are allergic to because they are a liar” is a common entry to BCO. It’s entirely possible that they are not lying and have a mild allergy and can eat, say, peanut products but not straight peanuts. Maybe not in…

Isn’t it possible that she just has a mild peanut allergy? Not all food allergies are deadly. My college roommate has a mild peanut allergy. If he were to eat peanuts or peanut butter, he would get a rash, but he wouldn’t go into anaphylactic shock and he can touch them without a problem. I’ve even seen him pick…

I would say it would be an ADA violation for a normal restaurant to refuse to serve someone with a peanut allergy. But the ADA says that it’s only a violation if you refuse to provide a reasonable accomodation. In a restaurant that is literally covered in peanut dust, there is no possible reasonable accomodation…

In a similar vein of not defending, but trying to understand, maybe banana peppers girl is color blind? They’re kind of yellowish, so I could see how someone might mistake them for red.

Have you SEEN the other Republicans? He’s by far the most competent person on stage. The Democrats are going to have really screw up badly to blow this election.

I think there probably are some people who want it banned. Not many, but probably a few. Anyway, it’s a conversation that’s worth having. I like watching football and would be disappointed if it went away, but I also recognize that “but I like it” isn’t really a good argument as to why something should be legal or…

The Michigan student play by play guy probably made the best call of the 6 people in this three clips. And the fact that his color man just kept yelling “nooooo” was pretty great too.

Random yelling when your team wins in a shocking fashion is what I would expect. Coming up with a signature call like “Do you believe in miracles? Yes!” or “We’ll see you tomorrow night” any of the other equally iconic calls in the moment is probably really hard to do.

They had a little a bit. They said there was a fumble and MSU recovered and scored a TD. Sure it’s not the most descriptive, but what more do you need?

The Michigan band played “The Victors” just moments after losing! That’s so ironic.

Leaving aside the pretty obvious plagarism, why is Schefter posting a full news article to his Facebook page to begin with? Shouldn’t all his articles be posted on ESPN.com?

I’ve had exactly 0 trick-or-treaters since I moved into my current apartment building 2 years and expect to get 0 again this year. Needless to say, I will soon be stocking up on candy to give to trick-or-treaters.

Why not give them a copy of Atlas Shrugged?
