Man, you seriously need a hobby.

When he and Taylor Swift first started feuding after that thing at the VMAs, if you had asked anyone to guess in a decade which of them would be fundraising for Democratic politicians and which would be buddies with an openly white supremacist president...I don’t think too many people would have gotten it right.

“It’s a rule for a reason”

Bret Stephens just emailed your boss

Well that and that it is very impolite to say someone is lying, even when they are very clearly lying. And as we all know, the number one job of any reporter is to be polite.

Yeah, but if you click through the article, it’s clear there’s a lot of thinly-veiled racism as they complain of people coming from DC to use the park, people who don’t belong in that kind of neighborhood if you catch my drift, wink wink

Wouldn’t surviving an attempted abortion indicate I’m pretty clever? Like, come on man, I was barely past the zygote stage and I out-witted a medical professional. That’s pretty good!

Funny how the dudes crying the loudest about how everyone else is too sensitive lose their shit the second someone disagrees with them.

Funny, for someone with the handle “fuck bootlickers,” you sure have that boot pretty far down your throat

Haven’t read Main Kampf, either, but I’m pretty confident it’s a shitty book

But they’re not reporting on comedy, they’re reporting on Pete Davidson

Isn’t this one of those dipshits who tries to make a name by being “edgy?” And he’s out here doing sets literally saying “Don’t you want adults to respect us?” Like, that’s not what a comedian says, that’s what the fucking dweeb who runs the student honor society says.

The worst part is, he acts self-aware enough to write in to WYTS and call himself an asshole, but he’s obviously not self-aware enough to not be a gigantic piece of shit. I mean, at least one of the things he listed is a legit dangerous crime.

The average life expectancy of an NFL player is in the low 50s, while the average life expectancy for American men is in the mid 70s. So you’re giving up roughly a third of your life to entertain us. While the Romans made people fight to the death for their entertainment, we only make you give up a third of your life…

Yeah, I hate this. I work out at a gym that has a decent number of serious powerlifters, and it’s almost always impossible to tell if they’re between sets or if they’re just hanging out on that bench to chat. And not being a big ol’ powerlifter myself, it’s a bit intimidating to walk into a group fo 5 massive dudes…

Alternately, if you’re one of those people who insists they’ll vote D no matter what, stay the fuck out of it and let those of us who actually care about the nominee to make the decision.

But your last paragraph demonstrates how this is always a matter of degree than kind. How do you define awful? How do you define unrepentant? What looks like cancel culture run amok to you probably looks to someone else like a very reasonable response to something beyond the pale. Who gets to be the grand arbiter of…

Exactly — this is media relations 101 and I know Verlander knows this: if you’re talking to a reporter, or even just talking to someone else when there is a reporter present, it is all on the record unless you specifically say it isn’t. I mean, you can have all sorts of problems with that standard, but that’s clearly…

Fair point on it not all being due to Luck’s decision, but to also to be fair to me I clearly meant the average NFL player

It wasn’t meant to be a refutation per se, just that we’re all reading a lot into one guy’s decision. So I was just matching anecdote for anecdote — if this one guy’s decision has us all thinking the talent pool is going dry up, then the other guy’s decision would seem to indicate the exact opposite (that is, someone…
