By "sad" you mean "awesome", right?

I remember the 1994 Explorer XLT my family bought when I was in high school had a sticker price of $24XXXk. Inflation is a bitch.

Ever get invited to a swingers party that you didn't know was a swingers party - but instead was basically a group invite by swingers to join them? Because that's pretty fuckin' awkward.

I spent 3 months auditing certain customer files retained by the consumer finance division for a maaaaaaajor automaker a few years back. All I can tell you from that experience is that car salespeople, on a routine basis, financially rape their customers. Whether it's 20+% APR's, or 3yr/36K VSA's that they charged…

....they won 62 games! I was also a little upset at Splitter's re-signing last year (as a Spurs fan), but he actually played much, much better this year. Green & Leonard though are great young players who will hopefully just continue to get better in this system.

This guy is worth tens of millions of dollars and doesn't know that all you need is a Platinum AMEX to get into practically any carrier's lounge? No sympathy!

....I feel fortunate to have made it 15 years without knowing about this track's existence. Woof.

Agreed - if there is a silver lining, the Rage Against The Machine song on that soundtrack ("No Shelter") is excellent.

Well, I'm sure they realize now that it would have been much cheaper to build 85 years ago.

You obviously don't live on Manhattan's east side...

I'm with you here.

Yeah, I get it, and I've had to sit a couple of them out for these reasons over the years, too. But I've also had some really great times in random ass places for bachelor parties too (Charleston, SC; Ocean City, MD; Okemo, VT; Bahamas, etc) and those trips were all worth every penny.

I just got engaged and we're just starting to scratch the surface here. I've got too many friends and her family is huge, but if it were up to me - island wedding with <100 guests. Instead we'll probably have like 300+ in fuckin' NJ, guaranteed!

This seems like misdirected anger. Bachelor parties are generally awesome (but not always! everyone went to one terrible one), but, the circumstances surrounding the bachelor party of this particular friend of yours sucked. If the marriage lasted, you'd probably have fond memories of that weekend and probably…

I still think that an ice cold Bud bottle is refreshingly delicious, but Bud is FAR from a favorite beer of mine.

All I care is that a team from the East other than Miami reaches the finals. Indiana looked like they had the best chance of that through February, but they've been very average, at best, in the weeks since. That bracket is up for grabs. As for the West, I don't think we're going to see a series sweep in any round.

Just came across this from a few years ago, which is in a way downright hilarious: http://nypost.com/2011/09/13/res…

The Vikings got completely hosed with prime-time games this year; no SNF or MNF! Yes, I suppose they could end up with a flex scheduling SNF game, but we all know it won't be because of their own playoff push. I also wonder how much them playing half their games in a college stadium has to do with this (only because…

One of the most memorable NYC nights I've ever had was there a couple years ago. The Friday afternoon/early evening bartender apparently got SMASHED during her shift, and once relieved, just hung around and was a complete disaster for another 2hrs, at least. She was taking her clothes off, handing out drinks to…

I just moved a few blocks from there a few months ago and will not squeal! Very good bar.
