If the song is made with the N-word (nigga) in it then why not say it like it is as a lyric? Why do people say the N-word and then get mad at other people for saying it? Don’t make the song with the word in it if people don’t want other people to say it, that just doesn’t make any sense. If only certain people are…

There really needs to be separate HOF for R&B and Rap. Or, change the name of the Rock & Roll HOF to something more encompassing like American Music HOF or Y’all Know All This Damn Music Can Be Traced Back To Africa HOF.

About time for Pat Benatar. I mean, she’s Pat Benatar with her amazing classically trained voice and her badass attitude. 

The script for this thing has been around for decades, and once starred Harrison Ford. Imagine old Harrison Ford as we know him today running around chasing/getting chased by Harrison Ford as he looked in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Had they pulled it off, THAT would’ve been something.

Rundgren absolutely deserves to get in. Besides his own work he also produced a ton of great stuff including the NY Dolls eponymous debut. 

Or hell, even an old school roasting of someone leaving the site, even if by leaving the site, it is leaving the group of G/O sites to an untimely death.

I wish your shithead executives would let you and your readers publicly mourn Splinter. It is missed.

Do not take your Bojangles for granted; there are unfortunate souls like me out there who don’t have any nearby.

I don’t understand the “underperforming metrics” statement. By comment counts and posted audience views, it appeared that Splinter out-performed several of the existing G/O Media sites.

Oh, this is weirder than I originally thought.

it’s cute.   but.... not to be a total asshole  but that girl is leaning real fucking hard into that rope.   she didn’t so much as climb that wall...  as she shimmied up the beams a bit.  then was boosted up.  via the rope

Wow, your friend has rock solid balls and is a true friend.

Aww hell. Now I’m welling up at work. It’s been 13.5 years since my newborn son passed away, and I wish this book, and this article existed when Aaron died. Our family and friends were great, but there were times when my wife and I were alone with our thoughts and it got really, really dark. And this was while we were…

It seems more and more that the only thing that matters is the showstopper.

The 1970s series of Agatha Christie movies has never been surpassed (because they’re perfect). Last year’s Murder on the Orient Express was nowhere near the flawless 1974 classic. So now they’re doing Death on the Nile, but who can top Bette Davis and Maggie Smith? (No one)...

Sanders himself most certainly didn’t, but it’s an open and likely unanswerable question as to how many of his “I refuse to vote for anyone but Bernie” supporters followed through, and how much of an effect they had on the general election.

I’d be more worried about the perception of his total health and fitness for the office that the procedure will generate in some of the electorate than the reality of his health.

The number of armchair physicians out there who are absolutely convinced that they understand a person’s health/fitness on the basis of an…

Unlike Yahoo, Apple’s in no danger of having to raid their couch for spare change though.

To be fair, opossums really DO eat a lot of ticks and are generally immune to stuff like rabies and lyme because of a low body temp. So, true headline, probably still shitty link :)

How did Hoopla not make the list for borrowing? It has a WAY better selection of all book formats than Libby (at least for my library).  It also doesn’t rely on a reservation system so popular titles are actually available to borrow all the time.
