It’s got to be one of the most baffling moves in any companies history. It’s one thing to sleep on Half Life 3 for over a decade, but they had just switched to an episode driven format based on the existing engine which was still fresh at the time. That seemed like a win for both fans and the company, more half life…

Sublime may be a better band than I’ll ever give them credit for, but after 3 months straight of my high school girlfriend making me play the same 7 songs mix tape on repeat while cruising around in my bronco, I’ll never shake the reflex to immediately change the channel anytime they come on. I can identify any one of…

The good news is that probably can't spell the nuclear codes correctly either. 

Bruins fan here, super excited to see this team make it to the finals. But I wouldn’t be sad if they lose to the Sharks. Would love to see Joe Thorton get a cup. Go Bruins, go Sharks!

Has to learn to walk again, can still use chopsticks no problem. There’s a joke in there somewhere but shit man, glad you’re still with us. We were all worried about you. Really scary how fast your life can take a turn like this. Thank you for sharing this very personal story. 

There’s been a meme going around the past year or so that says something like:

That’s a great point and it’s real problem I’ve witnessed personally on many occasions. But I would say taking yourself out of that role holds you back as well as this is an effective leadership tactic. I won’t pretend this is a problem I’m at all equipped to solve, but at my company we’ve had woman call this stuff…

Exactly, we’ve all been to these meetings that run in circles and nothing ever gets done.

The best trick I’ve learned lately, although I hate doing it myself, is to offer to take notes, then make sure everything being discussed leads to actionable items. Get someone to own each item before you move on and then send out a follow up email with the notes and next steps. It can be awkward with strangers and…

I love early movies myself, but it did little to curb the annoying people for Endgame at least. There was one guy who was mentally handicapped and I’m willing to forgive his behavior because it’s not his fault, but he was yelling things at the screen throughout which was distracting none the less. Including a very…

I really hate that the ret-conned that whole phrase into meaning she’d kill the night king and other main characters. Remember She killed like hundreds of Frays last season. Pretty sure that prophecy is fulfilled and back when it was first said it was just meant to say she’d become a successful assassin. 

In the scene right before they explicitly said she was there to protect the fleet with the air support of the dragons. That all makes it even dumber that she wasn’t scouting ahead and on the lookout for enemy ships and got caught off guard.

Right, people of this generation may never understand this now since everything is a review of everything. Back then you’d stop at a mediocre diner on the side of the road, eat a weak ass ham sandwich and never think about it again. Now it becomes an open letter on Yelp about how that ham sandwich ruined your…

There were definitely cracks along the way but what really made me wonder if they were going to be able to pull off any successful ending is when they unceremoniously killed Littlefinger in the weakest way possible way after basically wasting him for 3 seasons. From the beginning they built him up as someone with a…

The show definitely started to show cracks a few seasons ago but the highs outweighed the lows in most cases. It wasn’t really until last season that I started get a bad feeling about it. The creators seemed more interested in getting everyone in place for giant Lord of the Rings style battles rather than tell nuanced…

How it ends:

My God it's full of spoilers 

“Why should I have to overpolice how I discuss a popular show to protect you from something that’s likely going to get spoiled for you anyway?”

PUFO Sighting. 

Since Google completely neglected their Finance app for years, then redesigned it to look like a search results page, sadly Yahoo remains one of the better free sites to view a simple watchlist with streaming updates. I could always use my brokers websites but then I’m getting logged out every ten minutes which is…
