"Do the agents really think the teams are going to change their approach just because these "ultimatums" comes via a reporter's tweets?" - while I'm in agreement with you that it seems like a weird way to go about it...it seems like it's working pretty damn well. This guy just tweeted himself to the bank with one…

"The motives here are questionable, " - no, no they're not. The motives are very plain to see and easy to explain. Someone who is tied into a celebrity family losing their shit means ratings, and at the end of the day that's all Dr. Phil, Oprah, or any of those others are about. Sometimes they do good things as a…

I don't disagree - the design of smartwatches to this point has not been one of "Fashion accessory" or even particularly "Feminine". They're putting function before form, as tends to happen with first gen "new" stuff (look at google glass...NOBODY looked good wearing that thing). I like it because I don't have to go…

Heh note the stuff in parenthesis. I'd be all over that shit. Hell, I do that in real life when I travel for work and find stuff worth making fun of already.

Next up on Kitchenette: Gawker staff and select readers are going to be sent to St. Louis to sample the local cuisine.

Girls don't just "deal with it" any more than all men are like the boy mentioned in the video. We don't ALL refuse to accept rejection.

What I'm confused about is...now what for the Jets? They just threw an epic shitload of money at one dude...but they're a lot more than one dude away from being anything I would consider "competitive", no?

Massive amounts of swearing? Where was that?

Of course it is - however what if you don't answer the phone because, you know, you're someplace where you can't answer a phone call?

Check out a pebble and let me know what you think - and I'm not saying that to be obnoxious (though my last post was...and for that I do apologize). It's not the "bright shiny" type of light...it really is completely innocuous. Think timex indiglo more than iphone screen...and even that may be too bright (don't…

You're missing my point (or perhaps I phrased it badly, which is VERY possible). My point is that the author is blatantly dismissing the technology as for only the nerdiest of the nerdy...but in truth that is NOT the audience for tech of this nature. I openly admit to being a control freak. I openly admit to…

It doesn't bother them because it actually doesn't bother them. Honestly if you're so sensitive that the light from a watch bothers you (Even though someone sitting RIGHT NEXT TO ME can't even notice it over, you know, THE LIGHT OF THE FUCKING PROJECTOR) then you should probably stick to watching movies at home...the…

And I'd say what you've earned but my self-important self has more important things to do.

No question. It's unfortunate that in this day and age, those of us out in "real world" (meaning post college, no offense intended) really are expected to be reachable at all times...to the point where those of us who've really bought in get uneasy when we're out of touch. I AM getting better about it...I've taken a…

Question is fine - and I "glance" at the watch (pardon the apple watch pun there) just to see what's happening. In part you're right, I'm a slave to it. I am expected to be "Reachable" unless I'm out of the office for vacation or something but, beyond that, my personal life has things that I choose not to turn…

Actually it's going to make a tremendous difference. Again, when you have someone texting/calling etc telling you to get someplace quickly and you miss it, let me know. As a person who was in that situation, I can tell you from experience, it would have made a world of difference.

Tell you what - when you miss the call that a family member died, or is dying, or has fallen and can't get up, then be sure to come back and respond to this thread.

Because looking at a watch is a problem?

Thanks for completely missing the point of the post.

I don't object to the nerd bit - its the playacting part I find offensive ;)
