And Pintos! If you still drive a Ford Pinto, you should be on a government watch list.

This is hardly a surprise. There seems to be a lot of sour grapes involving the Tolkien estate and the movies that were made, so they would want to exercise a lot of control over the new show to make sure the Oliphaunt-surfing is kept to the bare minimum.

I think the line I remember about Sauron was that he was less evil than Morgoth initially because he was servant to his master’s vision, but that during the Second Age he became truly evil when he began to set himself up as a God-king. Tolkien seemed to view true evil as completely self-interested, with no empathy or…

They found that out after they approached him and gathered information. From what we know, they approached a random driver of a popular car brand and held him at gunpoint. That should be bad procedure.

That’s a fair take, but I’d argue that they needed more to go on than same make and model car to draw their weapon. What if the suspect was driving a grey Toyota? Are they gonna draw guns on every driver on the road?

Starting Strength is great and I like Rippetoe’s approach to training in general, but his general personality and politics are fairly grating, especially recently since he seems to have gone “I can do no wrong.” HamNo kinda sets himself up as a political-polar opposite with the same attitude, but he has no real…

I like the Crooked River Clevelanders if only so it can be shortened to the Cleveland Crooks.

Yeah, I thought HamNo was a Starting Strength guy. I found it odd, because Rippetoe is a pretty hardcore libertarian.

You do good work.

As a fan of the Cleveland Baseball Club, I endorse this take.

Thinking about it keeps me up at night.

I forget how I found it, as I wasn't even lurking on Deadspin in 2011, but yeah, it's one to remember.

This a real good Meat Loaf pun and I love, but the all-timer is still this bad boy.

Don’t you see, Granny Q? The rapper was in you all along!

He’s back, I think. Or he was back, then did a quick DL stint. But he’s been good when he’s healthy.

YEAH!!!

It’s not a delusion! They’re just three games back! They just need to win four games in a row, the Twins need to lose games during the easiest schedule of the season and then...they can be bounced out in the ALDS...

Well, now you know better than to say anything even vaguely inaccurate about the Red Socks.

I’ve been trying for the past three years. Good luck, because I couldn't find a way.

It hit on all the things I was wondering about regarding whether Tarantino employs all his usual racist and misogynistic tricks in the film.
