Drew, were you drunk when you delivered this?

The thing is, we don’t ever need origin stories. Part of the thing that made Wolverine a hit character early on was that his origin was shrouded in mystery. Super-heroes aren’t interesting because they had their parents killed or survived a radioactive industrial accident or whatever, they’re interesting because of…

Wouldn’t you at least put in the effort to fake it being stuck?

Don’t get married and don’t have kids. Ta-da! Problem solved.

Is it bad that this looks to more true to the characters it portrays than any of the upcoming movies?

Cycling kind of encourages this sort of thing to happen because sponsorship deals encourage riders to sit straight up when crossing the finish line to show off their shirt sponsor’s logo, as these photos are the ones that end up on front pages.

Reverse wall won’t catch on for the same reason coaches rarely go for it on fourth down in American football. It’s better for the coach to take the “safe” decision and say the other guy was good or lucky than to take a chance and get boned - even if, on average, the chancy move works out better.

Someone with a lifetime of doing piecemeal work finds themselves unable to continue to do so because their skills are largely obsolete? This is the future all of us have to look forward to. Thanks, Obama, Clinton, Reagan, both Bushes, etc!

So, strategy question. If you’re Popovitch and you have an idea how to break up the Warriors’ rhythm enough to beat them, do you do it now to strike the fear of God into them for the rest of the season, or do you take the Ls now and save it for the post-season, when it actually matters? I think there’s no chance at…

HOWEVER, a lot of gynecologists also deliver babies, which I assume is the big draw.

On the other hand, the award for “Best Whiskey Double Entendre” goes to their sherry-finished blended malt, Black Bush.

Sure, except you “haggle” by stringing the case along. The first settlement offer is always lowball, because if you’re dumb or need cash urgently enough to take a small settlement, they’ll take advantage of that. You don’t make a counter offer, because that just signals a negotiating position they can bargain down…

Arse and Barce have way, way more bandwagon fans in the US. Although when I was working at a convenience store there was a regular that wore Juventus gear at least 3 days a week.

it really looks like Bayern will need something approaching a miracle to get back into this.

Oilean or Telamonian?
