I watch @midnight pretty regularly, and Drunk History when it’s on.

Honest question here (and I know super not the point): does throwing peanuts have racial overtones in the same way that, say, throwing bananas does? I hadn’t heard of that, but it certainly wouldn’t be the first piece of racist dogwhistling I was late to recognize (it was like maybe 3 years ago that I realized that…

Oh man. Stealing that gif.

And then every year they have this strange 2-day festival where they all use steps to reach higher things. They call it Ladder Days - ain’t that odd?

And even then everyone’s always looking at their tablets.

Great points all around (and I didn’t think you were disagreeing with me, I was just expanding). There are of course many nuances which are easily lost in pithy exhortations (as I am fond of saying: “for every complex problem, there’s a simple solution, and it’s wrong”).

Yeah, basically my opinion here is “as long as nobody actually dies this will be the funniest news story ever”.

Sure, but he *also* said things that resonated with people who heard the Democrats message of “everything is good and it’s just going to get better”, looked around at their lives and saw that their lives were worse than their parents and saw that their kids lives were worse than theirs (and not incorrectly - life…

Wow. That is pretty awesome...

Woah, slow your roll there friend. Times Square is a shit hole, no doubt, but pretty much every city has a similar tourist trap shit hole (I live near SF - Fisherman’s Wharf is ours), but NYC is “overrated”? By what metric? Food is amazing. Museums are amazing. Music, comedy, and other entertainment are amazing. Or…

Ugh. I haven’t seen it yet (since I, you know, won’t take my 4-year-old), but that seems even worse.

I really don’t think you do.

The showing I went to had like dozen or so 5-7 year olds. I kept waiting for their parents to take them out of the theatre when they realized what kind of movie it was (moreso for the graphic violence than the sex), but...nope.

Planeswalkers come into play with a number of loyalty counters (the number in the lower right). Once per turn, at sorcery speed (e.g. during a main phase w/stack empty) you can activate one ability, adding or subtracting the requisite number of loyalty counters. If loyalty goes to 0, they die. Planeswalkers can also…

This.

Having only played 8-ball/9-ball pool and never having seen Snooker played until I watched this clip, that was weird at first.

As much as I hate to agree with Trump, he’s spot on that diet coke seems to be primarily drunk by heavier people (source: I am a heavier person and I used to drink like 4-8 diet coke/coke 0s a day. Of course I don’t drink soda any more and I’m still heavier, so perhaps correlation is not causation).

Other people’s obviously inappropriate responses notwithstanding, why click on and comment on an article about Esports if you find nothing redeeming about it? I mean, if you’re looking to have what will inevitably be a fruitless internet conversation, have at it I guess, but what exactly are you trying to accomplish.

I am not. I had no idea that the y and a were transposed until literally this minute.
