Fun fact: the Greek national basketball team once caused an incident when several members were caught smoking cigarettes in an airplane bathroom while on the way to the fucking Olympics. Greeks love smoking man.

The NHL has to draw the line on player safety somewhere, but at the same time they let way worse hits than this go unpunished or lightly punished all the time, especially in the playoffs.

Is it a Star Trek-style sentient space jellyfish? No thanks. Is it a Star Trek-style more-or-less human other than a barely noticeable ridge on the nose? Hell yeah, would smash. 

*spend all my free time facebook stalking women I had one class with in high school and going down weird reddit misogyny rabbit holes*

I loved this - solid A+. As I watched it, double over laughing and super stoned, the thought struck me: are the Lonely Island low-key the stoner comedy auteurs of our generation? 

I, like most sports fans, like to think that given responsibility over my favorite dysfunctional franchises I could do a better job than the people currently running the show. I am 100% confident that I would be a better GM of the Giants than Dave Gettleman. But I think we all have to acknowledge that the more…

The bathroom connected to our bedroom has a steam pipe directly in front of the toilet, so you can only sit on it at like a 45-degree angle, and needless to say your willie does not sit comfortably in that position. Our other, luxurious bathroom is next to the guest room, so whenever we have guests staying my wife…

Yeah, it’s not about protecting established clubs, it’s about protecting teams from reckless owners. If City’s owners decide they’re bored tomorrow and don’t want to pump endless amounts of their own money into the club, or they piss off the wrong Saudi royal, or any number of other things that could prevent their…

Yeah, they show Dany being too ruthless for her own good and sadistic toward her enemies in earlier seasons, but they never depicted her as the kind of person who would slaughter innocents for funsies. I think a better way of doing her heel turn is the city still surrenders, she refuses to accept, the Unsullied…

Bill de Blasio aside, who would be the absolute funniest current politician to try to run for president despite everyone begging them not to?

So were those two about to fuck or did they just fuck or what? 

Sam Adams is also a great entry point to craft beer. When I was in college and first moving away from guzzling domestic light beer and thinking that Blue Moon was the height of luxury, Boston Lager was a real eye-opener to a world of better beer. Nowadays it’s not my favorite, but I still have a soft spot for it. 

Hey, so is the show going to remember that Dany rules a multi-city empire over in Essos too? What’s up with those guys? 

I understand where the confusion is coming from, but writing it out like that pretty clearly implies a [] around 2(1+2), making the answer 1. You’re not wrong if you think the answer is 9, but I think the vast majority of people would see an implied bracket around the multiplication part of the equation. Really the…

I can’t speak to all of those states, but at least for Colorado, Nevada, and Arizona an absolutely enormous proportion of their populations moved there post-WWII, and even in just the past 20-30 years, so she get the fuck out of here with that “we’re descended from pioneers” bullshit. It would be like me claiming I’m…

Yeah this is potentially unsanitary but by the same token a lot of restaurants waste literal tons of food and it has to stop if we care at all about stopping climate change. That said, and as others have pointed out, there are definitely better, healthier ways to sustainably reduce food waste than re-serving food that…

Who the fuck spends all their time on the phone at a baseball game? Motherfucker I am getting drunk and watching baseball, I will call you back later. 

Ah yes, the Union of Concerned Scientists is a political organization whose claims about science can’t be trusted, but the *checks notes* Wall Street Journal editorial board is an objective source that has no political agenda.

I try to avoid spoilers until I’ve seen something, but I think a lot of people are way too sensitive about it. I saw Annihilation about a year after it came and some pretty big plot points had been spoiled for me, but (a) that’s on me for waiting a year to see it, and (b) it was a really good movie so knowing some of…

Obviously the bootlickers at ESPN, SI, etc. aren’t going to write this take so I’m hoping Deadspin will: Dave Gettleman is making racist decisions about this team, and it’s apparent even in a league with a truly disgusting amount of coded racism.
