Ya know, I thought you were just humor impaired until I watched the trailer. I agree with you, there wasn’t anything about it that said parody or implied anything humorous about it at all.

But isn’t that exactly the problem with rape culture? That a lot of people out there don’t think that doing things like this is the same as promoting rape. That it’s so casually promoted that we don’t even think about the impact we’re having on society with our words and actions? How many young men out there gaming…

I don’t think it’s entirely shifting blame in his apology to claim that he had no guidance. Isn’t that one of the biggest problems with rape culture? That there’s nobody (or too few/quiet people) in the immediate area to tell people “Thatz Not Okay!” when they say asinine shit?

Not many Jordan haters back in the day, people respected him and loved to watch (even non Bulls fans). The other big part of the picture here is the advent of social media. Sure there were the occasional “Jordan is a gambler” articles in papers etc. but there wasn’t this over saturation of every detail, every comment,…

The CGI is constant and impossibly fake-looking. Sorry...!

Medically speaking, the fact that the premature infant (not technically a fetus) was alive for a few minutes after birth is unsurprising and shouldn’t make this more criminal than any other late term abortion. At 5.5 months, the heart is well-developed; the lungs, not so much. This delivery would only have been viable…

I’m really grateful for journalists taking care to report suicide compassionately and responsibly, so thank you. For anyone who is interested, the Samaritans guidelines are pretty good, IMO: http://www.samaritans.org/media-centre/m…

EDIT: Oh, and for the people complaining that this is clearly ‘POLITICAL CORRECTNESS…

Nope. Best practices for suicide reporting recommend not using “committed,” which sounds like a crime or, to religious communities, like a sin, and “kill yourself” is just insensitive, crude, and poorly phrased. “Died by suicide” is the phrasing recommended by mental health professionals and the American Foundation…

I always thought it would be awesome if the fans of Entourage and the fans of Sex and the City could be introduced at the world’s largest Brotastic/Basic Bitch Mixer, and then be shipped off to Wish Fulfillment Island where they could live out their lives as a never-ending cycle of roofies, brunch and credit card debt.

What if there’s a car chase longer than, say, 50 miles?

There’s quite a bit of elision and misinformation presented here. I truly don’t have the energy to dig into all of it, but let’s take on the scare-quoted oxybenzone and Vitamin A, for example. Retinyl palmitate, the natural form of Vitamin A that is used in sunscreens, has been proven safe by multiple rigorous,…

What is your obsession with college? The analogy is pretty clear as being representative of a star player carrying a team on his back and that individual not being able to overcome the singular focus of the opposition (and his teammates not being able to pick up the slack.) The analogy holds just as well if you take…

I fucking love that Tom Brady is hated by the people that actually know him, just as much as I hate him.

And the wife beater winning is a better outcome?

Obviously Mayweather is afraid of strong, independent women that aren’t afraid to share their opinion. I’m a fan of both Michelle Beadle and Rachel Nichols and it would have been nice to hear the firsthand perspective of the fight from both of these women. I really hope that Manny Pacquiao really beats the shit out of…

Pacquiao should bring Beadle and Nichols out during introductions and have one of them in his corner, holding a microphone.

Same thing that happens when it earthquakes on a road that goes up a 5.1% or 6.1% grade hill.

What if we took a few days each year to reflect on the dark parts of our history, on the terrible things that were done, and are still done, that benefit our science?

Now as a police officer (though in another country) I would like to add something:

How much of this story is true? http://deadspin.com/5163615/crazy-…
