you can shake them a little, and a harmless smack not to cause pain but gain attention, those are both fine. I think I get her, she's not talking about beating the child, just getting their undivided attention. I sometimes feel sad just raising my voice in anger, but sometimes I feel my son does need to learn a little…

agreed!

I think the applications here would be for severe lacerations where you will bleed to death in moments, and if a stroke impairs you later on... Count yourself lucky! I'm sure that military and EMS first responders would be very happy to have these kind of injections in their kits!

sorry, I don't mean to be a dick (most of the time) but the fact that you initially suspected witchcraft doesn't inspire confidence that your knowledge of physics is spot on... Most people with any kind of understanding of what could have caused that effect inferred that they were flying in a parabolic arc. I know I…

so what you're saying is that a group of Libyan militants gained access to the consulate through hill-dogs email

or told them that, "sprinkles are for winners!"!

this is absurd! Someone tell St. Louis that sprinkles are for winners...

Do you base all your literary analysis on the pretty picture you find next to it?

you are a national treasure.

I was only using the 76ers as an example of a big market sports product franchise because deadspin loves to hate on them. I can't stand basketball, if they end up with a good team later because they intentionally suck now, that's really shitty. Other teams use money and talented people (players coaches and front…

good. Now stop talking to me... Basketball is the worst sport in the world.

Juuuust a bit outside!!!

OKC has less than 1% of the country in the area! The Jazz have even less. Philly is pathetic right now with the garbage they choose to put on the floor!

no. I'm not saying they should move to LA... Philadelphia is a to five market, 20% of the country lives within a reasonable drive of their arena! I'm saying they need to hire an interesting team.

true. That's business. I think the money people do a great job. I'm saying that can be more important than the sports stuff.

I'm saying the gamble is worth it. Not this time, but in general signing major stars builds an empire, but being thrifty means nobody gives a shit even if you win.

seems legit...

you are too literal, it's boring.

that hot take on Kobe was even more ridiculous than you asserted. I don't care about Kobe, but lots of people do... If the 76er's win a championship with a bunch of nobody's, LA would still have the more profitable team! They would still make more money if they extended the same deal to shaq, just to dust off the old…

it's dangling down there!
