The intergender champion is Andy Kaufman.

Fred’s pinky was wider than Wilma’s waist.

Those Astros uniforms are just beautiful.

Also, that second baseman knows how to wear his socks. He’s the only one in this clip who looks like a ballplayer.

This is brilliant! It is the equivalent of bunting against the shift.

Every strategy has not only a benefit but also a cost; and making your opponent face that cost is the right thing to do.

The most important thing is to put a space on either side of the em dash. Write “Your head — a frightful thing under the best of circumstances — presents a particularly gruesome countenence today”, giving those dashes room to breathe.

In that respect, yes. While in other important matters, he is one of history’s great geniuses.

It’s odd how people are built.

Cyclists do plenty that’s wrong. I as a cyclist frequently tell my fellow cyclists not to run red lights. I tell them this because that practice hurts us. Running red lights hurts cyclists’ interests by making witnesses angry, which leads to diatribes by lunatics and half-wits at community board meetings, and to…

If clubs are finding ways around the mendaciously-named “financial fair play” rules, then more power to them. Those rules should not exist.

There is nothing wrong with strictly enforcing a rule. But if a rule is unworkable as written, then the correct solution is to change that rule.

I wish this guy would fall off the edge of the Earth.

That’s Lil *Rel* Howery, not Lil Rey.

That’s not a good thing.

This demands a special summer Saturday Night Live sketch with Kenan Thompson as LaVar Ball, Cecily Strong as Molly Qerim, and Chris Redd as Stephen A. Smith.

Call me a “stan” all you like. I unapologetically admire this show for its courage in giving us a character who is an admirable person despite having done plenty that is wrong.

I don’t know what show you were watching. But in the actual show, Barry was not going to kidnap Ronny. He was trying to convince Ronny to leave town, by explaining to him that this crazy cop wanted to have him killed. 

In fact you are making me explain to you the difference between a moral position and a practical one.

It’s fine in some contexts, and not so fine in others.

When I was a kid, I went to a doctor whom everyone called “Dr. John”, because his Italian surname was even longer than mine.

However, in a written piece, the standard manner of reference is “Dr. [surname]”, whether about a real or fictional doctor. If there were a…

First of all, Barry did not know that Janice would shoot him only in self-defence. When someone is holding a gun on you, that is definitely not the time to start granting that person benefits of doubts.

I think you might need to find a term other than “nutmeg”.

This is the wrong approach.
