I watch a lot of men’s college games; usually just NBA highlights. I agree flopping has become ubiquitous. I was noting mostly the awkward jumping jack in front of every pass that the UConn women were doing. Effective in confounding passing, I guess.

If they had lost because of it, the least that karma could allow is to let Samuelson actually get throatpunched. That was some bush league Duke guard BS. Plus, UConn’s team kept flailing and kicking their legs on every pass (which may be a hallmark of the women’s game; not a regular viewer), but it was very obnoxious…

I didn’t think he would be right (I didn’t mind Chobani in that it was food that served a purpose), but literally Fage is superb, and I’m not eating other yogurts anymore. Also, my dogs fight to be able to lick clean the containers like HamNo’s [sample] dogs in the pictures.

I’m a super good bleeder. Women often are, and when I give blood, I squeeze that handtoy so I can get done quickly. Think of the guy who wants to finish the standarized test first - that’s me at a blood drive. Plus, I always watch the needle as they do blood draws or injections. No fear then - it never hurts that much…

I’ll support your LBO. You don’t need money... just a story good enough to sell a bank willing to lend you enough based on the collateral and your leadership. When I think of a US prophet of yogurt, I think of you, HamNo. Not even lying: every time I pick up the Fage over the Chobani at the grocery store, I remember…

EXACTLY. I don’t know anything about wrestling anymore other than what’s on Deadspin and Cena on the Today Show or the Tonight Show. And yet, these are all people who were wrestling when I was in college 20 years ago. I don’t even know how their bodies do it... I have to be careful stepping out of bed in the morning.…

This kitchen is beneath Nancy Meyers (so vanilla; no warmth), and I live to have the house in It’s Complicated. That house is my spirit animal.

I’m willing to bet real money that these are Mother’s rules (ahem, conditions), not Pence’s. I’m not saying that this means that Pence sees female professionals as equals or not, but this isn’t an uncommon rule. She wants him chaperoned, and doesn’t want him drunk. The better rule is not to drink if that’s your…

I have watched that show religiously since the beginning (because I really like salvage design, though I need the artifacts to be real, not mass-produced), and it hasn’t struck me that there was an outsized number of clocks. A lot of cloches, cages, wire baskets, antiqued toolkits, unusable desks, schematic and map…

Confession - because of their similar looks and names, I was certain that Hildi (Trading Places) and Hilary (Love It or List It) were one and the same person. I was shocked that Hilary’s decorating was always very subdued and nice, while Hildi was a manic hot mess. It took me a long time to realize they weren’t the…

I’ve got three gigantic clocks. This didn’t start with Joanna... Pottery Barn, RH, industrial salvage and their ilk have been reppin’ this for years. We have the Restoration Hardware-type one, a modern bright red one, and a huge factory 1900's punch card clock. If I’m honest, we also have an industrial steel time…

And the HAY STUCK TO A WALL. I would have murdered my neighbors.

Also, this article pays short shrift to the views of the girls who would get their own school, as noted in the WaPo article. The girls didn’t want the school, they wanted - and will get - something else. Being knee-jerk cuts both ways, and this click-baity article irritates me.

I think that people tell themselves that “but that means you live in a nice place!” This is probably not true. There will likely be more restaurants and parks and museums and stores, but not three times better those in more realistically priced areas, and also, those “nice place” things aren’t free. There will likely…

NC state government has always been a backbiting bunch of factionist idiots trying to score points against each other, but probably not that much different than most other states. The big difference being that the state usually didn’t do much that anyone noticed unless you were reading NC newspapers and hadn’t done…

I think this hits a pain point for you, given the tone of your comments in short succession. I don’t think that dirty partners get a pass. What I was commenting on, with an open heart and empathy for MsMenstruation, was to see if she could challenge herself to an easier daily standard of cleanliness, since her …

Is it a race thing to say that I think that if Draymond Green and Steph Curry were doing the exact same thing (they aren’t), that Green would get more fouls called? If so, then sure. My point is not meant to be BUT RACISM! but rather a more nuanced view on how attractive, light-skinned, younger-appearing, less angular…

I think Crosby is extraordinarily talented, and that if he looked like Chara, he would get called for more stuff. It’s not a race thing, per se, it’s that I believe that refs give a pass to the attractive, baby-faced, lighter skinned players. Of course, those people have to be talented, too, but I think that the refs…

If Sidney Crosby didn’t have a white babyface, this would absolutely not be the case. I understand it’s hockey, but still. The blind eye he gets is ridiculous.
