Roller skates. One for each foot.

I think I’ve tried to articulate this before somewhere here on Kinja but my wife and I, both white folk that live in Alaska, sincerely thought that racism was dying out. Oh, we knew that there were still some hold-outs and old assholes, of course! But we honestly believed that we were only a generation or two away…

I totally agree as far as that goes. Hell, I occasionally listen to Korn, so I have no high ground to stand on.

haha “Soupjam”, you nailed it dog

I get this. It was a big, amazing event and I’m glad you experienced it.

What the fucking fuck.

Lightly. A beer here and there, usually towards the end. More rarely if it’s hot out and there’s a chance I could just end up dehydrated and miserable. But in the cooler months? A beer is nice.

Michael, great article. Thank you, this is fabulous reporting.

All true. Lose your fear, dive in and figure it out. Shit, I used to do it without the invention of the internet. Another good tip that I never seem to follow no matter how many times I try is to keep your work space and tools in order. Nothing worse than wasting time or adding more frustration to your work. But then…

There is very few things that rival the satisfaction of resurrecting a vehicle from the dead.

I totally agree that I’d see her live (I mean if someone else paid). She is peerless right now when it comes to performance. It’ll be a major part of her legacy.

Kudos to Troy Brisard and Kirk O’Quinn - the two coaches who came forward and let Klein know about the other coaches’ disgusting comments/plan.

TRUMP: I can’t believe you did this, Michael. I’ve said it before—we have to be more careful with the cyber.
COHEN: ...What?
TRUMP: The tapes. They’re part of the cyber ...no?
COHEN: No, they’re...
TRUMP: But email is.
COHEN: Email is, in a way, yes.
TRUMP: Part of the cyber. So what are tapes?
COHEN: They’re just...tapes.…

The Xanax and red wine suburban mix

Your issue is the “reasonably”. I bet a bank would loan you $40k on an engineer’s salary (of course this depends on your other liabilities). A bank would loan me $40k, and my salary would be on the low end for an engineer. I can’t reasonably afford a $40k car, but I could “afford” the payments, if I were willing to be…

Enjoy. Chester Himes was raw, gave no fucks and could weave a story like nobody’s business.

Forgive the following:

"the fact is, both nu-metal and grunge both lacked the musicianship to last longer than a short while"

When I woke up this morning, I had no clue that I’d get to watch a “Well actually, Robin Ventura kicked Nolan Ryan’s ass” truther video set to ‘Thunderstruck.’ You’ve made my Tuesday so much better.

It's because of moments like this that one masochistically endures all the kinja-inflicted pain over the last few years...
