My difference in opinion is not ramping up the hyperbole. You see it different than I do but I’m not screaming some false sexist strawman. As you agreed a lot of it has to do with her gender. I just happen to think this speech scandal is overblown to epic proportions.

“The almost definitely will be running tests on all the systems...”? WTF does that even mean?

It’s a shame: he was such a dominant physical force during his days in Orlando. I saw many of his games live and his sheer athletic ability and size was completely unfair to everyone else on the court. Too bad he never truly capitalized on any of it. Those successful years in Orlando had as much or more to do with…

I was wondering how close his moonshot came to that rafter. Maybe it’s just the angle of the video but mannnnnn he almost scraped the bottom from the looks of it.

My wife uses fish sauce pretty regularly, being southeast Asian and all. It does add a certain... something to a dish but don’t go overboard with it: the sodium content is through the roof. Also, don’t look up how they make the stuff if you’re a stickler for hygienic food-handling practices prevalent in first-world…

It blew ours too, and is the reason we’re only having one kid. Our kid started daycare at 9 months (because we were both working) and it cost almost $1,500 a month; that was more than our apartment at the time!

If we’re going to get into semantics here, I don’t think dance is a sport. I think dancers are athletes, but I don’t think ballet competitions are sport, and I don’t think cheerleading competitions are sport. I think they’re dance.

What Curry does on the court is getting to the point where every W’s game is must-see TV. When he’s on, there’s no better show in basketball.

Good write-up, and I agree that CR is the best Bond film ever. It’s gritty instead of campy, action-packed without being over-the-top, lean and well-acted. No crazy stupid world-takeover plots, disguises, gadgets. I love, love, love that the plot was so straightforward: bad guy needs money, tries to get it in vaguely…

Those are not boots; those are dress shoes with Nerlens Noel’s high top. All due respect.

Completely, 100% true.

True, it’s not a garbage truck on official duty—where there’s practically an assumption that you’ll just pass the damn thing—but thank you for acknowledging that DYs can be crossed in certain circumstances. That was my only real point on a philosophical level.

Are you really that black-and-white though? Truly?

I’ve watched these exchanges and really wish people would stop harping on the double yellow as if it’s well and truly inviolate. Double yellows may be law, but that doesn’t mean common sense can’t rule the day (if not traffic court). Bear with me a moment...

Exactly! These sanctimonious blowhards would pass a garbage truck going down this road and stopping every 100 feet.

I’m with you dude. I don’t believe any of these blowhards talking about the sanctity of a double-yellow. Sometimes it is safer to do the illegal maneuver than do what the law would dictate, and that certainly doesn’t warrant assault with a deadly weapon by a pissed off car driver.

I’m with your boyfriend. I own a gun and for a time enjoyed the gun range stuff, the competitive aspect of it. But I soured on it years ago because JFC it’s truly juvenile. Moreover, every day at the range and purchase of ammo funded people more extreme and belligerent than I was comfortable dealing with. People who…

Agreed 100%. His perpetual efforts to convey the depths of his aged-frat-boy-lite coolness have always struck me as contrived and hokey.

I don’t get guys who obsess over their ladyfriend’s number. They’re insecure overcompensators.

Counterpoint: this happens only in summer.
