How boring are people’s lives that they put so much energy into hating a university for having a consistently successful basketball program and a well-earned scholastic reputation?

Not saying it didn’t happen that way, but the linked article offers no indication that Sean Penn pressured her into meeting with El Chapo.

Matt Damon?

I don’t get the joke either, but 2 for 1 is a thing in basketball leagues that have a shot clock. If the shot clock is 24 seconds, and there are 40 seconds on the game clock, instead of draining the shot clock, you get a shot up early, so theres more than a shot clock’s worth of game clock left. The strategy is that…

Sometimes university names refer to teams and sometimes they refer to places

Wanted to say this; you took the words out of my mouth

TIL a movie has to be good all the through or there’s no point in watching. Given this, why are any of us *ever* watching *any* superhero movies? They’re all filled with terrible, formulaic bombast at one point or another

Is this your first time hearing this idea? The removal of conference alignment in the postseason has been debated around the NBA media for the last couple seasons, due in part because of the relative low quality of some of the lower eastern conference seeds and in part to, according to some, boring early playoff…

“...engage in keyboard-based fuckery as if it means a goddamned thing (and, when it comes to *most kinja users*, it doesn’t).

Luke warmest take of March?
