Pink slime meets pink slime.

I wish the camera had stayed on ol’ Happy Monday in the Astros shirt as he went from Hallelujah to Bummed.

This should be said aloud in exactly the same resigned English voice as the sample that opens St. Etienne’s So Tough (“cigarette, a cup of tea, a bun”).

I think the statement is less about the intensity with which those who already care about the rivalry feel it and more about the pervasiveness of the rivalry within the wider culture.

The walking backwards from the rim after scoring is going to get someone squashed.

As much as I love Behaviour, I am ultimately partial to Very. Hence, the kinja username.

Now playing

I always liked the KLF phase when they basically just wanted to be the Pet Shop Boys circa Introspective.

But but but but when Elizabeth was searching Young Hee’s house to the tune of Yaz(oo)‘s Winter Kills in Season 4 it was amazing.

I have an ex, about ten years older than me and who arrived back in SF in 1981 after college, who would often talk about what the 80s teams meant to him: A little bit of joy amidst the depression of watching half your friends waste away and die during a plague.

“But this feels like the biggest screwjob since the Seahawks lost to the Steelers in 2005.”

My comment is about the effect a reasonably express declaration of an irrational bigotry might have on a sexually and ethnically diverse but ostensibly secular organization in 2018 America.

“This isn’t a private team, it’s the USWNT, for all intents and purposes an arm of the state.”

My initial comment had nothing to do with Hinkle’s decision not to play for the USWNT.

Ninety-eight of the Fortune 100 don’t leave room for that kind of personal freedom. At least with respect to staff who have direct reports. That’s up from 94 in 2010.

“Whatever her beliefs are, whatever she believes in, that’s her. It doesn’t affect the team, it doesn’t seem to affect anybody on the team.”

“Jimmy Carter, who is viewed as a moral authority today far more than he was as president, is commonly cited as the best example of how to use post-presidential life for the common good.”

When talking about Condi Rice’s effect on the world, that the fruits of her labor were merely useless is actually the best case scenario. The results can be much more destructive and long-lasting.
