I agree that the fight could have gone either way, and that a Canelo win makes the most sense...because he’s a bigger draw, so he should have the belts, yeah? 

Why are you so hung up on downplaying it?

Don’t go to that restaurant.

Nah, you’re fine.  It’s a deeply upsetting story and I know my comment was kind of trite.  Thanks.

If your old phone still works, don’t upgrade.  Simple.

How to get a lighter through airport security: just leave it in your carry-on.

That’s kind of a shitty little snide comment in hindsight, but seriously, I remember when I was like 10 and sports illustrated for kids had those little trading cards and the Williams sisters were on them when they were still teenagers and it was fucking tennis which was never on those cards. I’ve always perceived…

Like I said, “it’s not exactly relevant.” Just an anecdote that coincided with this awful story. And I’ve been sober for 7 years, but hey at least I don’t take myself too seriously.

Bias against popcorn movies is real, but 2 of the last 5 best picture winners doesn’t support the idea that the award is biased against black-led films.

It likely won’t win best picture because its really just another marvel movie, and the academy’s recent history hardly supports the contention that black-led films don’t win best picture.

Not a New Yorker, so forgive my possible ignorance here, but it’s governor of the state, right, not just NYC? I imagine a lot of residents in other parts of that state are tired of the city being the sole focus of their leaders, and my half-interested impression of Nixon was that she was running for Mayor.  If I’m not…

There’s no way this won’t be interpreted as shitty but, honestly, this particular form of protest was never going to effectively stop police brutality or extrajudicial murder, was it? Coupled with the widespread misinterpretation, deliberate and otherwise, of the statement that was being made, to continue an…

That first one almost serves as a cutting critique, but the second is much more clearly racist.

How can you just take an actual quote from the son of these people and blithely reword it to fit your preconceptions of a family situation you know nothing about? “The way this reads to me...” Astounding.

30 years is definitely too little.

Even that grassy spot the asshole drives past as he approaches her.

“the health department inspected the cafeteria and gave it a good rating and then reinspected it when another incident occurred.”

I don’t really see the big deal with this story.  Pretty standard nowadays.  Restaurant serves Jeff Sessions, gets flooded with negative reviews and online hate.  Taco truck refuses to serve cops, gets flooded with negative reviews and online hate.  Something like this happens literally everyday now.  I just want to…

It’s not a white boycott, but ok.

Don’t newspapers always have lame-ass wordplay in their headlines?  Like if an older male athlete just became a dad, and lost a game, they’d be like, “Father Time Catches Up?” I really don’t see the outrage, beyond bad puns.
