This debate raised an important question, in my mind: when will private citizens *finally* get own drones equipped with Hellfire missiles?

I mean, what you really probably need is a truck, but when your neighbor offers to sell you his 2005 Porche 911 with 30,000 miles on it for $5000, that is what you buy.

No dog in this at all but as a sports fan this is just plain dumb. The ultimate cop out to join a team that just beat you in the playoffs, won 73 games and has a title in the last two years. What happened to superstars wanting to create their own legacy and win titles on their own accord? I don’t know why this maddens…

Well, since it’s June, I won’t be trying the thermostat trick just now, but I’ll try the cold water thing. I sweat like nobody’s business, even just walking down the street on a 60 degree day I can get a little moist. I’m not super overweight - 6-1, about 218 lbs. - I run on a regular basis, workout at the gym, etc.…

yep yep yep. that is THE fucking key. i’ve said it time and time again on this site. black people love giving white people props even if they’re just good, and not great, at whatever black cultural expression they’re doing. go to an hbcu and see a white girl with some rhythm. Black people will gas her THEE fuck up. Go…

White Brits (who in migration become Americans, Canadians, Aussies and New Zealanders) have had a long tradition of pillaging the Africanized cultural treasure chest. Things like punk, often described as a white working class genre, have a foundation in the yardie culture of Jamaicans and the accompanying sound of…

Also Can work with.

Everything, literally EVERYTHING about Meghan Trainor said “one-hit wonder” and yet she is still here, annoying us...forever.

I remember when the song “Never Gonna Give You Up” came out. Everyone who heard it on the radio assumed he was black. Then we saw the video.

I am of the belief that it’s not so much that black audiences don’t want white artists exploring a black sound: the issue is that white artists can be bad while employing black style and still be successful.

Can you smell!? What that cop is cooking!?

I think this if pretty much the the fantasy of everyone when they see a bicyclist where I live.

You don’t make exceptions based on a few seconds of observation that he seems like a normal dude. That’s not how this works. Once you start doing that, you can easily miss disguised threats. Had the motorcade been five minutes out, ok. I might be able to get on board with this. With it being literally just a few…

Otoh... there are jobs that must be taken that seriously regardless of the innocent-seeming context. My father had a story he told me recently about when he was an officer in the Air Force inspecting nuclear missile silos. The short of it is that he got tackled and held at gun point once when his badge fell off in the…

I dunno what’s worse: the Citidiot, or the continued existence (and popularity) of Jimmy Fallon as a late-night host. (It could be worse, though: he could be James “I Stole Craig Ferguson’s Job” Corden or Chris Hardwick.)

They didn’t know who he is or what he was doing. Some terrorist could have done the same thing on a bike. If they helped him up and he turned out to be carrying a weapon, things could have been very different.

As a cyclist I say fuck that guy, the cops totally did their job.

you can see the Flying Elbow Cop thinking “THIS IS IT! THE MOMENT I’VE TRAINED MY WHOLE CAREER FOR! THE PEOPLES ELBOW!!!!”

Wilbon's logic on this topic seems to be "I am a black man therefore I know what every single black person on earth thinks and how they act regardless as to whether or not I've ever met them", which is both stupefying and idiotic.

I was frustrated to the point of tears by the local and national media's shameful, abhorrent coverage of the death of Sean Taylor, especially in the immediate aftermath, when Taylor was presented to the public as an agent of his own demise, apparently by virtue of the fact that he was a young black man who went to the…
