Barclays is a terrible arena for hockey, but I never understood the “it’s too difficult to get to” argument. There’s an LIRR station underneath the arena! The train is almost certainly faster than driving in from Nassau County!

(Or you can just sit at the bar, where there are almost always seats and you can order both a torta and a margarita from the bartender).

R2D2 doing an explicit call-back to A New Hope and Luke sighing and telling him that that’s a cheap move.

Yes. I don’t understand people complaining about how she was able to do that - it’s been like 30 years in-universe since RoTJ, obviously Luke passed on some of the shit he learned from Obi-Wan and Yoda to his sister at some point.

Yeah, both this and TFA make this new war out to be a huge fucking deal that will have repercussions for the entire galaxy, but so far we’ve only seen two pretty small opposing forces chasing each other around the sticks of the galaxy.

Yeah, how Snoke corrupted Ben is actually the only thing about him that made me go, “But why did they kill him before answering my questions?” (otherwise I think it was awesome that they killed the emperor figure like 3/4 of the way through the second movie). Like, how did Luke, Leia, and Han know who Snoke was? If

When the Rebels desperately call for help and no one answers because it’s a suicide mission - Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon aren’t always going to be there to save your sorry ass. Beautifully subverted moments later when the Falcon shows up to save the Rebel pilots, because the whole point of this movie is that

I feel like if I were rich enough to routinely fly on private jets I would just want a few stiff cocktails and maybe a snack. Aside from that I’m already flying in luxurious comfort, I’m fine just reading a book or watching a movie on my laptop.

Kind of seems like every single coach and player involved should have been given a lifetime ban from the sport and charged with felony assault? All things considered this seems like a very light punishment.

Yeah, my understanding is that it’s very difficult to be rated “unqualified,” which is why it’s so shocking that Trump has managed to nominate multiple people rated “unqualified” in less than a year.

Yeah, I’m aware of the hate. I’d dispute at least a little bit that jealousy doesn’t play a role, since I think anyone who says “I’d hate it if a super-rich scumbag bought my team, bought a bunch of all-stars, and then won a bunch of championships” is lying to themselves a bit. But I get your point, completely - I’m

Hell yeah, man. Unlike some other teams *cough*Patriots*cough* we embraced our fellow fans’ hatred years ago.

It’s been too long since I’ve been able to exist in my natural state as a Yankees fan: obnoxious and utterly insufferable. I hope the world is ready for it next season.

Why on earth would you publicly announce this? Do what a normal team does when they lose out on a player and anonymously shit talk him to one of the local beat reporters who carries water for ownership.

On the one hand, someone who actually knows the game, recognizes how far behind the elite countries US soccer really is, and has specific ideas for how to improve things would be a great choice. On the other hand, someone with a history of domestic violence, substance abuse, and pissing off teammates is maybe not the

“Courtly bachelor uncles” is DEFINITELY code for gay. It’s unclear if this guy is aware of that (doubtful), but “courtly bachelor” is 110% the kind of slang middle class white people used to use in polite company when talking about someone that everyone knew was gay.

I don’t know - I agree that there’s a distinction, but so far no one has been thrown in prison. So far as I know, not a single public figure who has been implicated in sexual harassment or assault over the past few months has even been charged with a crime. I think that sexual assault and habitually creeping on women

Oh no! Now where will I go for self-righteous lectures that are bathed in toxic masculinity masquerading as comedy?

Are you fucking kidding me dude? You don’t grab someone’s ass without their permission. Normal people learn that before they learn the fucking alphabet. It’s very unfortunate for the people in your life that you don’t know the difference between consensual and nonconsensual sexual activity. I would pity you if I

Holy shit, man, if someone in my office was casually asking co-workers if they had sex the night before and slapping people’s asses it would absolutely be a problem - probably serious enough to get them fired. And my office doesn’t even have an HR department.
