eating something solely because no one else likes it is the ultimate old man move.

You have already defeated yourself.

RC is the best cola. Fight me.

Happy to oblige. Forgot to mention: my Pop-Pop dubbed her Bessie, and she is my beautiful perfect girl.

Alright, buckle up for a Shakespearean epic that I promise will be worth your while.

my grandfather always bought shit soda (sorry gramps, “tonic”) like Shasta, Cott, or Royal Crown. But on Easter or Thanksgiving he would pony up for the good stuff, like Coca Cola. There are a million grandpa stories. I remember recently before he passed we had him over for breakfast and my mom had a Bailey’s Irish…

My favorite joke that was made was that the only two white guys in the movie are Martin Freeman, who played Bilbo Baggins, and Andy Serkis who played Gollum, making them the Tolkien white guys.

But it was the revelation that the supervisor of the unit instructed officers to carry a toy gun just in case they found themselves “in a jam” and needed to plant one.

You’re responding to arguments that I never made! If you need a loan, like I did, you should get one. If you can manage to pay cash, do that. This was a post working through my own feelings about having had a loan. It’s not terribly complicated!

You don’t seem to understand ‘investing’ or ‘opportunity cost’

The basketball part

So... this guy 100% has the basketball yips, huh?

It’s funny to read someone who does no actual reporting question someone else’s. The last time Bill Simmons had a scoop he accidentally tweeted out what he meant to be a DM
