Bought a used car about six months ago (a Mazda 3, because of course it was). After making a list of cars that were at the right price point, I called all of them, with the sole questions asked being “do you still have it?” and “can I take it to an independent shop (which was about 50 miles from most of them, so it…

“Well, you see, we couldn’t throw at the other guy because it would look bad after our fans yelled racist things at him”. Baseball at its finest.  

Was seriously considering shaving off my beard this weekend after getting my hair cut. Thank you for reminding me that there are worse things than having resting axe murderer face.

And he has been pretty fucking huge since college. He slimmed down in the Jays organization and switched to yoga because he was afraid that all of the weightlifting was contributing to his injury problems, but later bulked back up.

Same problem, same shoe choice, though mine are size 12.5/13. Generally blow out the sides of them after a couple years, but they’re comfortable up until that point is reached.

He also swung multiple trades that returned high draft picks. The Sixers own the Lakers’ pick (top three protected) this year, pick swap rights on the Kings’ pick if they were to get lucky in the lottery, and the Kings’ pick outright in 2019. Those are very valuable assets to have! The Lakers’ pick has a 44% chance of…

There have been a number of players in recent years who have broken in to the national team who were playing outside Italy. Graziano Pelle went from non-entity to a starter for the Azzurri on the strength of his play with Feyenoord and Southampton. Marco Verratti’s on 19 caps and he has never played a match in Serie…

If the parts book for your English vehicle has an item with a name that isn’t washer, but it goes in a space between two surfaces, that space probably takes a washer.

Canadian here. I don’t own a winter jacket: I own a couple of these hoodies. Layer them and add appropriate hand/head accessories and you’re covered down to about -15 C.

I doubt they thought that it was a high likelihood of success. But if you’re arguing that your player is, in all but title and saves count, the equivalent of a closer, you might as well commit.

Alternatively, knowing the manner in which the arb system skews against certain types of players (and setup man pretty well top that list), rather than work the margins Betances and his agent opted to try to reset the market using a first-year arb player who is something of an outlier from a performance standpoint.…

And our closest equivalent to a Founding Father was a heavy drinker who routinely disappeared on days-long benders and who, according to legend and some contemporary reports, once was so drunk during an election debate that he began vomiting on stage (he won the election).

Glad that v1.01 has a CKII entry now...it’s the only game I have ever been spurred into purchasing by reading the patch notes.

I was under the impression that we had come to a consensus. These things have been happening nationwide, and as such there’s absolutely no reason to reflexively assume it’s false unless it’s your own preconceptions. And as such: go fuck yourself.

Go fuck yourself.

I hope that you have nothing but success. This is a wake-up call for everyone; progress isn’t a guarantee, and regression isn’t theoretical. Take one damned step back and there will be assholes who never quite adjusted to the modern world who’ll fill the void. The only thing to do is to keep pushing forward.

There will be more of them. But remember this feeling. Remember it in 2018 when the midterms come about. Remember it when Trump or Pence is up for reelection in 2020. Fuck, remember it when your school board’s elections happen.

Fuck these people. They will lose; they will cease to matter. It’s just a matter of how much damage they can do before that point. It’s just heartbreaking that I thought that point had been reached.

Goddamn.

Fuck you. There’s only one lesson to learn from this: faced with the chance to have Donald Trump, or not Donald Trump, your country chose the former.
