“Nanobubbles protect me from black on black crime.”

Which is what journalists do, asshat.

I completely agree with most of your synopsis (and I love hockey for the same reason). I also understand why people don’t get baseball (I didn’t for a long time), but that’s because all the things that are happening are very subtle. It is much more cerebral than most of its American counterparts. Where the defense…

That was just amazing. I want to watch that in a loop forever.

I thoroughly enjoyed it and laughed several times. I was also impressed with how not horrible Ferrell was for a soft, 47 year old actor.

I’ve only seen the clip, so I’m curious, is that how it played out in the show? The clip alone is edited together, so there are pieces of the discussion missing. The clip definitely makes it seem like he is interrupting, but I can’t tell if its the editing or not.

There’s been a few little things here and there, but the most expensive was a slingbox when they first came out. And I didn’t even have a TV.

This can’t be real. Is this real? The fact that I’m uncertain says everything you need to know about Boston and the Pats.

Can I just say... using an asterisk to signify a footnote doesn’t work when you also use dozens of asterisks to signify action.

Meanwhile, Tom Brady also made a statement about the case...

It is, perhaps, a double standard—those films are more clearly able to be viewed by the world-at-large as fiction than, say, the disturbing creative ramblings of a troubled black teenager from Los Angeles working in a genre that’s only recently been seen as “family friendly” in America, and often only if purveyed by…

I think this is the most salient point in all of this. I never once believed Tyler, Earl, etc were like the characters they portrayed in their earlier work. They’re fairly suburbanized skate kids, who seem bored and are trying to push boundaries like most teens. Why can’t people appreciate what they are doing the same…

Your comment is basically a slam dunk argument for legalization and regulation. Why not give them the same employee protections you rely on?

I think that is more indicative of the porn industry than the porn itself. Plenty of porn actresses have transitioned into doing cam shows or selling their own videos and claim to be very happy with the change. They are still doing sex work, but outside of the traditional industry.

From what I’ve read/people I’ve talked to, there are plenty of clients that will see the same sex worker regularly, sometimes even on a set schedule. So, while your comment may be true for those prowling red light districts, it certainly isn’t true for the industry as a whole.

How is that different from paying a therapist? You’re basically paying someone to listen to you talk about your life/problems. They ‘pretend’ to be interested just as much as a sex worker (i.e. they aren’t going to listen to you/dish out advice for free).

Why is this still a thing? I don’t remotely understand the purpose of having a courtroom sketch artist in this age. Is it just tradition?

She also has read magazines*

Not a Blue Jays fan, but this is kind of amazing. They did a great job of lining up every hit with the beat.
