Ben McAdoo looks like the stepdad of a kid whose mom works in a low-rent strip club, where he goes to eat wings for lunch on his break from the used car dealership that rips people off on 1995 Buick LeSabres. 

How many times did the game freeze during his run? New Vegas is the only video game I’ve ever quit halfway through because of how fucking sick I was of it crashing. 

My dad forced us to leave early “to beat the traffic” from Game 4 of the 2001 World Series. We turned on the car radio just in time to hear the call for Jeter’s game-winner.

That character made me deeply uncomfortable watching as a child, and he definitely doesn’t hold up in our current moment. 

False consciousness is a hell of a thing. I can’t imagine siding with a rich old white man who owes a huge chunk of his success to siphoning money from public coffers in any dispute, ever. Fucking bizarre. 

Between this and the way they’ve played for the last month, I guess this means the Yankees are a lock for the Wild Card.

Oh wow. Yeah I worked at a Loews, which I believe is now part of AMC, and it was terrible. We got “commissions” for upselling customers on popcorn but my supervisor skimmed from my take and they would routinely have me clock out just before I was due to start earning overtime and then make me do another unpaid hour of…

It’s always wild to me that minimum wage jobs don’t as a matter of course include no-strings employee discounts - it’s not like they’re paying their employees well, covering their healthcare, or contributing to a pension. I worked at Barnes and Noble for a bit and I think it was a 10% employee discount (which I loved…

I like to read Silver Age comic books. The over the top colors and dialogue really pop when you’re stoned. I will also second another commenter who suggested Star Trek.

For sure you should be aware that flight attendants are busy people who deal with a lot of shitty people and therefore you ought to be judicious about pressing the call button, but it’s absurd to suggest it should never be used for service. If you’re on a cross-country flight and not seated in first class, there’s a…

“...a Lakers executive said.” There is nothing I love more in sports media than when some dipshit assistant to the assistant deputy GM is granted anonymity to spew bullshit that wouldn’t get printed in even the most masturbatory team press releases. 

Yeah The Hobbit holds up really well but Lord of the Rings could have cut about 350 pages between the 3 books without losing anything.

That’s definitely a fair reading of the situation. 

“Cynical challenge” and “did well to cut out that pass” are the ones that kill me, for whatever reason. Use a fucking thesaurus! There has to be another way to describe those plays!

Right? Mourinho should be building the team around Pogba and Lukaku, full stop. His rigidity around tactics is his absolute worst quality as a coach.

At his best Pogba is one of the best midfielders in the world and has the potential to get sole ownership of that title. But (at least for Man United) he’s a frustratingly inconsistent player.

Jesus - just split your squad and play a simulated game on your training ground. It would almost certainly be a better workout to play their own youth team. 

This guy seems like a real piece of shit, but what’s up with Jezebel’s heavy coverage of him? I don’t think I’ve seen as much coverage of his legal troubles on any other website I regularly visit.

I’d watch a reboot where they’ve all become radicalized by the Trump presidency, identify as democratic socialists, and occasionally visit Bartlett on his farm to tell him that his comments to the press aren’t helpful to the revolutionary cause because his brand of liberalism hasn’t aged well. 

Really caesed the pun there, a little.
