“You and the ninety-one people who starred you are profoundly morally confused.”

“This was a completely predictable and very likely outcome.”

“A swing set is still designed to have an inherent degree of safety. The likely outcome a momentary loss of grip on a swing set is not falling off and hitting hard concrete at speed. They are not comparable except in the minds of the delusional.”

“I save my sympathy for the large portion of humanity that actually deserves it, not the ones who make an informed decision to risk their life for an ephemeral moment of thrill.”

“IMHO that’s a false equivalency to compare race car driving or rock climbing to this.”

“30,000 people a year die on US roads. Is that “sad” too?”

The fact that your comment has 9 stars and the comment you’re responding to has over 100 tells you all you need to know about people on this website. Sure, what she did was ill advised and stupid, but a random person dying is still sad. It’s especially monstrous to see the comments on here considering that this is…

“Dress codes (especially arbitrary dress codes) are largely viewed as classist in America”

A) Lawyers that handle these sorts of cases with these sorts of clients aren’t media savvy manipulators. B) A smart lawyer would’ve told the client to keep his mouth shut and let him do the talking. C) He had already pleaded guilty, so controlling the media narrative has nothing to do with the case. Literally nothing…

This seems like an odd article. The guy admits to all the things the article attacks him for, but it’s like the author isn’t reading the quotes he’s giving us. The guy sounds like an a-hole, so I’m not sympathetic to his plight, but it just seems weird to say things like “Maybe just start with that conversation…

I don’t get the outrage about this. The rules have been in place forever, and the clarification put in place in 2014 is available to the players (I assume...wait, is THAT why Deadspin is so upset about this? Are the players kept in the dark about the rules until some official comes out to embarrass them?! Cause THAT…

This seems to happen all the time in soccer. It’s such a flukey sport that a clearly outmatched team can often hang with a better team just by packing the defensive box and then making the most of one or two breakout chances.

“Still, the studio insisting that, out of more than a billion inhabitants of earth who are of Middle Eastern or South Asian descent, they can’t find anyone who serves up musical chops and dramatic acting abilities? Sound more than a little suss to us.”

So true! I can’t think of ANY athletes that look like they’re in great shape. You’re either a great athlete or a guy that looks like a mens health cover model who is on steroids and cutting agents. I mean, just look at this roided out non-athlete ;)-

Wow, that was a lot of text about something I hadn’t mentioned. Thanks, I guess...?

“I’m not hater” may be the most inaccurate part of that whole statement.

True- they should be stingy on what they buy, not what they tip though. If you’re willing to drop $500 on dinner/drinks/whatever, then maybe trying to cut corners by tipping 5% isn’t the most fiscally sound decision.

Lol, I was sarcastically making fun of your prior characterization of what Chipotle has to do. I always love the irony when someone says “you missed the point” and then proceeds to demonstrate that they missed the point of what the other person was saying.
