It boggles my mind that Jordan Sargent can find work today. Even if we separate that story where he may have been an accessory to an extortion, he was a terrible writer. I think my favorite was when he wrote about a surgeon who "botched" an operation, and when somebody in the comments asked him if it was determined…

We're cucking those betas by taking snowflake from them.

Jurassic Park is lame. We're all about Cretaceous Park now.

I'm trying to swear less, so I'll remix the popular sentiment.

Two years later Chad Kroeger & Corey Taylor are standing backstage at the Iowa State fair. They're both waiting to give separate interviews, but both interviewers are running late, and they struggle to look focused on something else, but it becomes evident that they're thinking about what they should say.
Taylor: Do…

Not if you've got a foot fetish. Then it's just false advertising.

I look forward to Surge finally getting into the product placement game again.

Here comes Squirrel Girl.

It's about a 14 year old girl who keeps a diary.

Kid Chameleon was pretty slippery on a controller. I can't see anybody playing this on a phone.

Han Solo: A Nu Start

Video game addiction does in another career.

For those interested in this kind of thing I would like to recommend the excellent The Bear Went Over the Mountain by William Kotzwinkle. It's absolutely delightful, and something most people could read over a weekend.

All I know is that whenever I've seen the ads for Superstore all that comes to mind is "I'm not watching that."

I'm not sure literally dunking on people will retire the phrase 'getting dunked on.' It sure hasn't thus far.

No, I'm saying I don't know who he was. You are attempting to define somebody as definitively "NOT RACIST" through incomplete records. The author himself says he doesn't know. I don't think it matters, and I'm not sure why you're insisting that you know what the man was like.

Being hunting buddies with Tris Speaker, a known member of the KKK, isn't a great look. And saying you'll play baseball with black people, or suggesting that they should be allowed to play after you've retired does not mean you don't have complicated views on race. It's the "I'm not a racist. I voted for Obama"…

Wolverines.

Well, to all those charges I'd probably say "Not Guilty" as opposed to innocent. He was a fascinating guy, and there hadn't been a template for the problems that come with being a superstar athlete. There was the death of his father. The hazing was absolutely brutal. And he was the most electrifying athlete of his…

That wasn't quite the impression that I got from Terrible Beauty. I took it to mean that Ty was most likely a hothead, but there wasn't anything to suggest that he was a particularly racist hothead, as he beat the dog piss out of everybody. But ultimately the gist of the book was that we'll never really know because…
