This kind of writing in college isn't exclusive to athletes, though. As a freshman in college (liberal arts school in New England) I took a required Writing 101 class in which we did a lot of peer-review of work. So many essays were written like the one in the article above.

Agreed. I did like that they pointed out how fucked-up the Dany/Drogo relationship is, though. Most people totally gloss over that.

I can't hate Bran - he's so harmless. But yeah, his storyline is boring and weird as shit.

Thank you for sharing this. I'm so sorry that happened to you, and that the police and hospital staff treated you so abominably.

Some places have drive-thru liquor stores!

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

I haven't had a microwave in the last two apartments I've lived in, and I don't miss having one at all. Microwaves are definitely useful at work, though — who wants to waste a third of their lunch break waiting for their leftovers to slowly warm in an oven?

Seriously. Doesn't that picture qualify as child porn? Why is it still on the internet and why were tabloids eager to buy it? Gross.

The difference there, though, is that this is a store that sells toys/food/supplies,…

Can we stop giving this moronic asshole more press?

Maybe if we ignore her she'll climb back under her bridge.

THIS SO MUCH.

It's taking the manipulative/annoying public proposal trend to its absolute worst, most pressurized conclusion.

Yeah, let's get a database of people who say "Happy Holidays" too!

Damn, I knew I forgot a few...
