Sure, but that still doesn’t mean that the surfaces themselves are the same. I’m not saying they don’t pose a risk, merely pointing out that the claim that the ice and boards are different and therefore pose different degrees of risk is, at the very least, a logically sound claim to make. As such, it requires…

I’m completely with you there. I am not challenging the notion that Crosby should have been checked out- he absolutely should have. I was just wondering why you seemed to be saying that the specific claim that the two different substances create two different degrees of risk was “the dumbest thing” you’ve ever…

See, I was with you right up until that second paragraph. I’m not pushing back against the claim that the policy should be expanded to make it clear that any hit to the head could potentially be dangerous, and that the spotters should have the authority to yank a player off the ice for anything that would seem to…

No, I get that, but he also provided context. He said that evidence collected over the years indicates that hits to the boards are not an accurate predictor of concussion risk. That’s a claim that may or may not be true- but going after his comments as being unbelievably stupid means that you not only think that the…

Why the outrage over this? I can certainly see it being true that the boards are less dense and have more “give” than ice, so it doesn’t seem unreasonable that violently slamming into the boards vs. the ice causes less traumatic injuries. He didn’t say that it was impossible to suffer an injury going into the…

Same. I kept telling friends I was nervous even after the 5th goal and the clock winding down. Then they scored two goals in all of 60 seconds or so and I thought “yup, this is exactly how a Caps team would get eliminated from the playoffs.”

Seen? I’ll be honest- I’ve never really seen what anyone else does with their boxers when peeing ;)

This is some bullshit. Oubre deserved to be ejected, but at the end of the day all he did was bump the guy really hard. He didnt throw a punch, kick the guy, throw a bow, nothing. What an absolutely absurd decision by the league.

Wait...if the only reason they gave up three goals was because the game tying one was assisted by an interference penalty then how is it hard to sympathize with their frustration? You’re ignoring the fact that their claim is that the 3 goals shouldn’t have happened at all, so relying on the fact that 3 goals happened…

As long as we’re being pedantic, it should be “hear hear”. So embarrassing for you.

The Caps lost in the second round the past two seasons, and are looking like they’ll be out in the second round again this year. The Wizards have been knocked in the second round of the playoffs the last two times they made the playoffs, and look like it could happen again this year. C’mon man, google isn’t that far…

That shouldn’t even be a hot take- it’s just common sense. I was at the game. I’m a Wizards fan, and have been my whole life. Oubre reacted stupidly and deserved to be ejected. The screen was moving, but it was just a hard screen- he didn’t do anything that deserved anything more than a regular foul. This whole…

Lol, but I’m fascinated. I’m wondering what you think I said given the fact that everything I said was responding to your initial (and repeated) claim “that not owning a gun is a viable option in virtually all cases and worthy of consideration based on the evidence.” I’m honestly interested in what you think I’ve…

Lol, just out of curiosity, what is it that you seem to think I’ve actually been saying?

I actually did exactly the same thing one time. I had a souvenir sombrero I had gotten in mexico, so I threw together a costume with a corona t-shirt and a fake mustache. My latino friends and family members all thought it was hilarious, but in retrospect it was a pretty terrible idea. Having said that, I don’t get…

“Different people are going to feel differently about this. That’s cool. I’m super happy for you that this doesn’t get under you skin.”

No, I get that. My comment was merely highlighting that Anker products are listed on Kinja’s daily deals every single day, so anyone who doesn’t get a good deal on them is a sucker.

Ay yi yi. I’ve explicitly been responding to that precise point. Literally. That’s been my whole point. Irony, thy name is Maezeppa.

Has anyone ever paid full price for an Anker product? If so, why?
