I’m not a good snob, and have a really bad palette, but it tastes off to me. Fresh is really easy and tastes better...

I’m off the opinion that in general you should give foul and home run balls to kids. By the time you’re an adult you should be less materialistic, but kids are naturally that way. However, that mother was horrible and I'd not give it to a kid who acted entitled or like they deserved it. That's just promoting their

Is there a reason why you’re still reading Deadspin then? I don’t mean that in a “like it or leave it way.” I definitely think you should be welcomed here and I am not at all opposed to hearing differing points of view. But I know if I think a place has politically biased and polluted reporting I just wouldn’t go

I’ve never heard of hand dipped shakes before and I had to look it up because the name doesn’t make sense. I imagined people pouring the shakes into their hands and dipping them into something. Around these here parts I think they are called “old-fashioned shakes”, you know, because they use the classic ingredients...

Not really. No. I think that they tend to make fun of people in power, because it’s more fun/better to make fun of people in power than it is to make fun of the weak (Sepp Blatter and Roger Goodell are the two biggest targets I can think of, and both of them are targeted because they are powerful asshats). I think

I’m sorry. I’m really confused. Are you upset that deadspin didn’t make fun of a fictional group of black people who made a treehouse in Oregon?

It was really confusing. I couldn’t tell the point of it. It wasn’t a good argument. It wasn’t funny. It was just dumb.

Yes, you can’t get back at the kids. But in that situation the parents are asking for it. Kids need to be taught things. It’s the parent’s failure for not capitalizing on teachable moments.

I don’t drink milk often. But that article is so bad, like so unbelievably bad, that I want to replace all liquids in my diet with milk out of spite for that writer. If they fired everyone at Jezebel, and contacted the employers of their families and had their family members fired too all because of that article I

Oh, I rarely complain about non-trivial things, let alone trivial ones. I’m just saying it was my experience that I was able to help more assholes (which is what my manager wanted me to do) than nice people (who I might have gotten in trouble for helping).

I can honestly say that in this case the best way to have her learn is to help her get away with it. Our corrections system is not built around rehabilitation, it’s built around punishment. And people really don’t learn from punishment. Putting her in jail, derailing her life, would have increased the odds or more

As much as I like to believe this, I think the odds are better at getting free stuff when you complain than when you’re nice. I have never worked in food service but I used to work at a video rental store whose name was identical to “Blockbuster”. I worked there during the late fee era. It was unofficial policy that

Yeah, I think most people can get on board that you can (but don’t have to) complain if they leave something out. But, from all the facts presented, I think it’s pretty safe to assume that the fries were there and that he is making this stuff up.

They can, but they’d be prohibited from using the injured hand for the rest of the game.

Don’t you think Pelicans fans have been fucked with enough?

The text of the rule quoted below seems to indicate otherwise... Is there another clause?

DownWithPairs give a good answer. I would recommend going with Child Protective Services or whatever the agency is called in your state (in Maryland it’s Department of Social Services). A social worker will manage the case from there...

Hi, I just wanted to say that your response was perfect. You explained why you did wrote it that way in an educational way and supplied a link to support yourself which I appreciated. It can be hard to reply to snarky comments like that in a polite and helpful way...
