Only wimps issue subpoenas though, and ask for testimony. Why be pragmatic and reasonable, thats for losers. We must save this democracy by being as undemocratic and sociopathic as the other side, because they are winners. If you are at all moderate on this topic, then obviously you support tyranny.

I remember the Monopoly promotion running during the ‘84 Olympics. Where the purchase of a Big Mac, small fry and drink was parlayed into a months of free food. Ah, the glory days. USA! USA! USA!

Didn’t the Democrats win that election though?

Does anyone else get a kick out of Bartolo Colon being the gold standard for slow-ass homerun trots? Are we sure Bartolo even made it across home, before they cut to commercial?

Sadly, I agree with your prognostications and at this point can it even be called that if it keeps repeating itself? Like Charlie Brown lining up for the winning field goal, you know Lucy’s just getting ready to yank that ball away because that’s her goal in life. To thwart Charlie, fuck the game. All the policy…

I very much do. Humans got everything they had coming.

Every time I read a story about Sanders on Splinter I get whiplash. One story is Bernie is good. The next story is Bernie is bad. etc. You might even get the two stories competing for space above the masthead for an hour or so together. Not that I mind to a point. Journalism should be about educating the public, but…

This has been one of the pettiest threads I have read on this site, and I love it. 

I feel for you. Back when I was in college I took Amtrak from Ann Arbor to Cleveland looking forward to my first train excursion, and was disappointed when they shuttled us down to Toledo on bus. Could’ve taken Greyhound if that was the case, and actually gotten there faster. Later in life, I got very familiar with…

Agree. The quote “Doth do protest too much” is what comes to mind reading this story and the commentary. Google isn’t twisting anyone’s arm to buy their service, and there are still many games and gaming options for people to choose from. The fact the author highlighted the fact that people are still modding games…

Therein, I think that is the problem. Placing the touchscreen in the center of the console, just makes it an major ergonomic inconvenience for the one person who will want to use it the most. If the tech controls could somehow be integrated into the steering wheel and maybe a control panel directly in front of the…

Exactly. Now that you mention it, when they were both strung up and got branded, they cut to commercial and came back and Darryl had already subdued the guard and was freeing Michonne. They completely yada-yada’d how Darryl got free and I was sitting there like WTF just happned.

The problem as I see it is the voting population haven’t thought out their beliefs and are largely driven by emotions, facts be damned. I remarked the day of the 2016 election, that one thing was going to be for certain, half the country was going to be highly pissed and the other half highly elated. We want to…

LOL. Yeah, pretty much the same here. Don’t judge me and my large purchase of malt liquor and pork rinds.

I’m sure the deceased is very not giving a fuck at the time. 

And you know all the lookie-lou’s that made sure to take the time to take photos would be bitching about being late for work. 

Seems to me ;like this is just a Cool Kids Club, and nothing like labeling everyone outside the Club as a troll. It amazes me how this Tomato character seems to have enough of a following that people speak their name when they haven’t even appeared in discussion thread. Sounds like someone owns real estate in a lot of…

Don’t we tend to do this with racism, sexism, and homophobia, and any number of the other -isms also. I agree this all smells of bs, but seems indicative of the environment we are in. Where any critique is cause to run up the score on being outraged and run off to Twitter to gin up support from a mob of millions. It…

I was just singing the virtues of Gamer in an article about the possibility of Crank 3 on AVClub just yesterday. So imagine my surprise your article appearing touching on the same themes a day later. You mention all the same points in more thorough detail of course. I could have sworn though that Jason Staitham was…

True. With all the support Obama had in ‘08, it certainly abandoned him in ’10. Which brings up the bigger issue of movement sustainability. This goes beyond presidential politics and extends to who your governors, senators, representatives, and state reps and senators are. I live in NC, and see the daily harm a…
