Why only $100? Come on guys, Jezebel keeps offering $10,000 for random crap they want.

I know someone who proposed on an airplane “so she couldn’t run away.” Dude, if that’s a legit concern, maybe you shouldn’t propose. If it’s not a legit concern and you’re trying to be funny, you failed.

That’s actually pretty hilarious.

Can somebody pretty please explain the meme to me? Is this about the jokes about “the Panthers being undefeated 11-1” thing you guys keep doing in the comments? I want to understand!

They’ve successfully managed to sell the idea that they are. I have some friends who are self-described “fiscally conservative but socially liberal” and vote Republican. They also tend to be ammosexuals. I just don’t get it. It’s like they don’t agree with “the welfare state” that does not actually exist, miss all the

You’ve clearly never read Gawker comments when some physics-based conclusions come in, such as things about downed airplanes, the Michael Brown shooting ballistics reports, etc. Everyone’s an expert!

That's how we do it in North Dakota!

I was going to say, the guy’s first mistake was going to an NFL game. Every time I've been to one of those some kind of fight has broken out within two rows of me. Fuck that, I'll just watch it at home and then I even get that little yellow line!

Well, given that they scored first, yes. There were multiple lead changes in the game.

So who does have a stiff schedule in your opinion? By definition, most opponents a top ranked team plays are inferior to them, and most of a team’s game are played in their conference division. Statistically, half the teams in your own conference have a losing record. Beating 2 or 3 ranked opponents seems like the

Some Michigan fan tried to tell me Dantonio will be leaving us for South Carolina after this season... ha.... hahaha... haha. I think you’re right. Izzo’s certainly had ups and downs and there’s never been any rumblings whatsoever. These coaches getting fired after by reasonable measures successful seasons have just

All I keep thinking through these circuses is that if Dantonio ever gets fired after one lackluster season, I’m boycotting MSU’s football program for all time. Our fanbase is swinging towards that insanity though. It’s like everyone is forgetting how much we used to suck. I have several friends who are planning to

I tried capsaicin ointment on my knees once. Bad idea - that was probably some of the worst pain I ever experienced. Trying to wash it off made it worse. Then I poured milk all over it and problem solved. Now I know why that worked so well!

Please read my comment in the most friendly un-mean tone possible. I love how everyone from Pennsylvania complains about the food everywhere else. I’ve found this to be without exception. You’re the rare Pennsylvanian who actually finds some outside food acceptable!

Are there bonus points if someone refers to a hijab as a “towel?”

I’m beyond confused as to what constitutes a small town because I just moved to a metro area of 200,000 people, which was supposed to be a big number and make feel better about moving here, but it feels like a small town. Everyone knows everyone. I’ve been told many times that this is a “small town.” When I point out

BLAAAAAAAH. Ok, I just (well several months ago) moved from the city to a small-ish town where I know exactly nobody other than the spouse who dragged me here kicking and screaming. First of all, I miss our old landlord. It was a little old woman who was quite hands-on and friendly. Now I live in an inexplicably

In the MSU-PSU game this weekend there was a catch and subsequent fumble that one of the announcers very smugly explained would not have been a catch in the NFL. Um, he caught the ball? Had full control of it? Dropped it later? What more do you need?

Big Ten fans also say college refs are terrible. And I’m aware of two games in general this year where the game winning touchdown was incorrectly gifted by the refs. The replays have been terrible, although that part seems have gotten better as the season’s worn on. I barely watch NFL anymore though, so it’s hard for

Wait, someone please teach me the rules of football! It’s illegal to throw a forward pass from ahead of the line of scrimmage? Really? Is that true in college too? I was not aware of this rule. Which means nothing, since I seem to be never aware of any rules, but really?
