You're giving Lucas too much credit.

Edgar demonstrates he thinks it was a waste of effort to try to keep gold out of Nazi hands (at the potential cost of their very lives) - but doesn’t think it a waste of effort to denigrate such brave men (at the cost of simply being an a**).

For what it’s worth, aerotoxic syndrome has never actually been shown to be a thing. Mostly flight attendants getting sick and trying to find something to blame it on.

thats a clothing donation bin for a local charity......its taking up half the stall so really the truck was just doing its best.

That script would look good on a blue oval.

100% agree. If I were the fiancée on the other end of this, I’d want to know what kind of filth I married ASAFP.

Call me drastic but isn’t the normal response to this situation to want to chop his dick off? Or at least Carrie Underwood style personal property destruction? I’m not saying you would/should act on those feelings but as someone that has been blindsided by a long distance cheater I can speak from experience that my…

Oh, hell no. He doesn’t deserve happiness. You AIR THIS SHIT OUT to the wife’s family by any means necessary, as quickly as possible. Annulments are easier than divorces.

Noooooooo, not really. What would happen first is the NFLPA would probably file a lawsuit against the NFL for violating their collective bargaining rights, at which point an independent counsel would decided whether or not Goodell has the authority, based on the league’s constitution, to arbitrarily hand out…

It was a stupid opinion the first time you posted it, and it’s still stupid the second time. You care to keep going?

I think my favorite thing about all the think pieces on Ballers so far is how angry people are getting that the show is actually showing the reality of the NFL, and how, yeah, sometimes it fucking sucks to be young, rich, and wealthy when you have no idea what you’re getting into and what that might potentially mean.

This is still my all time favorite Gawker comment.

Simple. If you make the F-16s (as well as the F-15s and F-18s) any better than they already are, there would be no need for the JSF...

Reducing pedestrian deaths is great, however, reducing it to zero is impossible in a real life situation. That is the way statistics and the world works.

re #7 That would be Sisyphus, not Tantalus. Tantalus’ punishment is to be eternally hungry and thirsty. He’s stuck in a pool of water that, when he tries to drink from it, drains below his reach. Above him is a fruit tree that moves out of reach whenever he tries to eat from it. Thus, the term “tantalizing.”

There are places where 25 makes sense, but, there are so many it does not. There are so many streets that turn into multilane limited access highway type roads, and they have a 25 mph speed limit. For example at Atlantic and Eastern Pkwy, there is a section like that. Although it isn’t very long, 25 is a ridiculous…

I always thought the Henry Hudson Parkway north of the George Washington Bridge but before the toll to cross into the Bronx was a little ridiculous. Yes, it is curvy, but it is also 3 or 4 lanes wide. IIRC it has a 35 mph speed limit that everyone promptly ignores

Well, in NYC pedestrians are the vast majority (outnumbers car ownership by 3 to 1 or so) so contrary to your false assertion, the new speed limit in fact does not cater to the minority. The main reason why the speed limit has been brought down from 30 to 25 mph is due to survivability. When a pedestrian gets struck…

I question that, too, because Lyra wasn’t sexualized. AT ALL. She was a girl growing up and was reaching young adulthood where Will became more than a friend — they never did anything sexual — nor did Lyra lose her agency.
