Johnny LeMaster, Giants infielder, who in the 70s once went onto the field with a jersey that had, where his name should be, simply the word “Boo.” Because that’s basically all he heard from the fans. I was always a fan of the underdog.

People who work in domestic violence and anti-trafficking often use multiple throw-away phones so that traffickers and abusers can’t track them and the women they are trying to assist.

Fresh tomatoes set off my gag reflex, but cooked they’re ok most of the time. The smell of bananas is revolting, but they taste OK. Eggplant is just wrong.

Seems to me that Arthur Ashe was well out of the sports limelight when he bravely admitted to being infected with HIV, which carried with it the whole 80s LGBTQ stigma extravaganza (and he didn’t equivocate like Magic Johnson did, insisting over and over that he wasnt gay, just a straight stud who screwed too many

Good old ASPIRIN. For headaches, hangovers, fevers and absolutely everything that isn’t cramps or inflammation.

Wouldn't it be "Testing Positive FOR Alcohol"?

Honestly, talk to anyone with a health issue that makes their skin dry. After you're done with the expensive smelly shit, it all comes back to Vaseline. And Bag Balm, which is Vaseline + Lanolin . If it didn't make everything I wear greasy, I'd put it on my entire body every day.

This story stinks. Making it sound more dramatic and mysterious than it probably was. Most suspicious: the guy never goes to the hospital, where he'd have been patched up but also tox-screened. I can't wait until the truth comes out. I bet he got drunk and disorderly, got in a fight, got decked, and had his pockets

What exactly was he doing wrong? The cop asked him to walk on the sidewalk. He wasn't even confronting him about the suspected theft. If I were a black man in a place where cops routinely harass black men, I'd be pissed too. I might not comply. I wouldn't deserve summary execution.

He was arrested 30 times for selling individual cigarettes. So obviously, dangerous thug who should be killed I guess?

No one went after cops, so that's just a stupid argument.

God you can HEAR his head hit. This kid will be lucky to regain full faculties after that.

*Foundering. (This is a losing battle, I know. But it's FOUNDERING.)

"A former headmaster at a school started by Nicholas Sparks filed a lawsuit alleging the bestselling author of some pretty disturbing things." For the record, you can't actually allege someone of something.

That's some headline writing from the school of 3 months ago.

If they burn their sources, their careers are over. No one will talk to them on background ever again. So yeah, that's a lot to ask of a journalist.

Let's not assume the writer wrote the hed. Very rare that that happens at a newspaper.

Everything has a downSIDE.

Because you posted this, this dog will find a loving home and this woman will be allowed to die with a little bit more peace. Sometimes I hate you, Jezebel, but tonight I love you.
