This is a common mistake about evolution — it doesn't only operate via a death / survival binary. It's all about statistics and population genetics. If one gene predominates in families that have three kids on average, and another on families that have two, evolution will be operating over time, squeezing the latter

Here's the video everyone wants to see, by the way. Even in his own videos, this guy gases on the whole time. This is a mock-combat using these techniques. [youtu.be]

I want to start ending all my correspondence with "From my vantage point my core assumptions on the topic carry a certain gravitas. "

This is an ugly, illiterate, and dimwitted post. It diminishes Deadspin to have posted it.

This is a really good piece, and reminds me how much I miss Tom at Slate. But because it's difficult to pick a best player, doesn't mean there isn't one. Rajon Rondo is obviously a better player than E'Tuan Moore; so who is a better player than him? If there isn't anybody, than he's the best player. Once you introduce

Jesus Christ, what's so wrong with that? Fashion is supposed to highlight the good and hide the bad. How is that so evil? This is like Christian fundamentalism or something. What's the big deal about admitting to not being flawless?

That's like saying the only thing you need to buy goods is a ready line of patter. It sounds true but it isn't, and it's closer to the opposite of the truth.

Most of the this advice is harmless, but make sure you use kosher salt, not table salt or sea salt or you will render your food inedible. Also, never use gas grills for anything. Thank you.

Why does the lady in the first picture have such astoundingly huge boobs?

What are the stories these images illustrate? Can someone please post?

This is a good post, but I object to the use of Disney illustrations instead of the Tenniel ones that the cosmos intended.

It's not even a shot. He was just trying to keep the ball in-bounds. Barely even worth watching.

Dude, prepare to never have an erection again. And not just because Lena Dunham is so hideously repulsive in every possible way.

"The Scream" should be Black Bolt, OBVIOUSLY.

I only wish they looked more alike!

Add me in to the approval pile-on here. I hate Lena Dunham and "Girls" for exactly these reasons. Plus one more.

This whole euphemism of "not conventionally attractive" for "homely" is getting way out of hand. Ileana Douglas or Hilary Swank are "not conventionally attractive." But they are attractive. The Steve Buscemis and Rachel Dratches of the world are "conventionally unattractive." There's nothing quirky about their looks;

What the hell is this?

Who cares???

This whole feature is a huge dick move, prissy and spiteful and sanctimonious. It makes Deadspin, which is far from immune to making mistakes (like any blog) look terrible. In fact, words can't express how much I hate it. What the hell was Scocca thinking? It's the sort of malevelont, petty griping angry, obscure
