I tried the KFC “boneless fried chicken” and threw it in the trash after three bites because it was so disgustingly inedible.

Right but: a) that didn’t come up until a day or so after she had disappeared, b) literally everyone who knew Barb (her parents) would have rejected that out of hand, and c) saying that a 17 year old “ran away” hasn’t really solved anything. Like, “Hey Bob, what happened to your son Bill, the junior in high school?”…

My theory (because this is exactly what my gf and I thought when we watched it) is that for a generally well written show the discrepancy between the reaction to Will’s disappearance and Barb’s just feels so OFF.

Don’t worry about it - they’re not going up the plot that I’ve read. Barb was a fan favorite which is why the whole internet is focused on her right now, but her character could frankly have been removed entirely without making much of any difference at all...

I read “Election” too quickly and thought:

Has anyone ever thrown away their “career” (sponsorships in his case) for a dumber reason? I mean nothing REALLY happened that night. No one was hurt. The vandalism was minor. The swimmers lost a few bucks. Basically some drunk bros pissed on a wall and got into a short confrontation.

I love how it took me five seconds to spot three different things that told me conclusively it’s total bullshit.

I don’t NEED to follow her on social media for my girlfriend to threaten me with murder.

Little “Sean Taylor” = The little death

I don’t cycle, and I was raging thinking about how much it pisses me off when I’m driving and motherfuckers do that.

Some poor bastard with cancer’s last wish was to see Batman v Superman?

The new Gawker: Drink cold brewed coffee!

You mean his North Dakota toughness and playing college at a level which was basically “good Florida high school conference” didn’t prepare him for the NFL???

I am unbelievably attracted to red hair.

Shit you’re right! I totally missed it. Probably because I was pissing my pants in excitement.

I think he looks like evil Dr. House.

I REALLY badly wanted to hear him breathing. It could have been fast, but I just wanted to hear the fucking breathing.

Me and my girlfriend’s favorite bit of baby gear is Yaz.

Are you not fucking fired yet?

This is a largely pseudo- or quasi-scientific pursuit
