1. Dirk is a guaranteed hall of famer so saying “Dirk could do this” isn’t really an argument for why it’s not impressive. Also Dirk is a good 6" taller than Harden.

>Just put it under your arm and run with it.

Yep, this right here; there’s basically nowhere you can guard Harden where he can’t launch himself into you and end up at the foul line.

You can have the Tesla buying experience at literally any dealership in the country, just walk in and say “Hi, I’d like to buy that car over there and will pay whatever price you want, who do I make the cheque out to?”

I don’t think the actual text of the updated rules has been published; if it has I couldn’t find it after 10 minutes of googling. Without being able to read the exact language I can only guess but I would predict the reasoning goes something like this:

You basically just described Jon Favreau’s career in a nutshell. Dude has no sense of artistry or flair, he gets hired to make mediocre crap that will come in on-time and on-budget and won’t offend anyone. Someone needs to pump out this soulless workmanlike filler so good for him for finding his niche but I don’t get…

The Purge movies would definitely qualify; by the second movie in the series you’re basically getting hit over the head with the class / race inequality issues.

I live a city that gets a ton of tourists and the Old Spaghetti Factory in the downtown gets insanely busy in the summers. Like an hour wait with a line out the door and the place is frigging enormous. I think when people are traveling they get decision fatigue from all the planning and just want to eat somewhere…

I read quite a few Palahniuk books in my youth and Survivor is always the one that stands out to me as being a great candidate to be adapted. His views on becoming a celebrity seem more relevant now than when the book was written.

Hmm, I’ve never put that together before; that the reason why their coffee always tastes burnt is that it’s meant to be mixed with an entire cup of heavy cream and half a dozen sugars so they have to make sure it tastes super strong. Makes sense to me.

I heard a rumour saying pretty much exactly this; that a group of owners was griping about tampering and the league basically responded that if they’d give them access to their email and text messages the investigations would be much better and that shut everybody up pretty quickly.

Those assholes are so smug that I’m more than happy to have the Dolphins wear the “Worst season of all-time” crown to go along with their perfect season.

Yeah this is my take on it too. I’m shocked that she’s seeing the inside of a jail cell. She’s in her mid 50's, has no prior record, plead guilty, and this is a fairly minor non-violent white-collar crime with no clear victim (ie some anonymous student who didn’t get into their college of choice).

“I would never buy a house if I couldn’t afford to fix a leaky roof, that’s why I don’t bother checking if the roof leaks before I make an offer! Reading internet forums about the expected longevity of the average roof is good enough for me.”

This is exactly my point. Bernie *needs* the democratic party, if he didn’t he’d be running as an independent. But his supporters hate the party, don’t trust it at all, and consider anyone associated with it a corrupt centrist bootlicker. Watching the party implode while Trump cruises to re-election isn’t my idea of a…

Warren is polling better and doesn’t come with all the baggage that Bernie does from 2016. She’s also younger - age shouldn’t be the determinative factor but Bernie is pushing 80 and would be the oldest president ever by something like a decade which I think needs to be considered.

The best thing for the country would be for Bernie to throw his support behind Warren so she could get on with toppling Biden ASAP so the party would have some sort of cohesive unity by the time the actual election rolls around. Bernie staying in so long in 2016 when he had an effectively zero chance in winning was…

You’d have to be rocking some serious nostalgia goggles to drop $4k on this thing. Slow as hell, no modern features, no airbags, zip-ties holding it together, you’d get sick of daily driving this within a week.

This was always my fear about Jojo Rabbit; not that it would be offensive but that it would be lazy. It always seemed pretty clear that this movie was going to be a holocaust tearjerker with some comedic elements layered on top and there have been *so many* holocaust tearjerkers that if you’re going to make a new…

My daughter *loves* veggies. Broccoli, green beans, cucumber, she can’t get enough. My son, on the other hand, wouldn’t eat a vegetable under threat of torture and death; I think I’ve put every vegetable in the grocery store in front of him and it’s a no go.  The only thing he likes is avocado which I recently learned…
