Stander here

Doing some google it looks like the Canadians did visit, and the one article I found about the Blue Jays mentions an invite to the White House.

Speaking as a hockey fan, I couldn’t name 3 active NBA players, let alone 3 members of the Knicks.

Judging by parts of these two rosters, the NBA and I have a differing opinion on the definition of celebrity.

Fair enough. I might have just been thinking of MY kids. Ungrateful little twerps.

I am ashamed at my autograph hawking when I was 12

This is the worse Kinja I’ve seen.

You’re definitely coming out ahead of your friends long-term, bud. Keep using your brain to shut down that nagging voice.

You’re right about that! Atlanta did play against themselves in the second half, and let the whole nation down.

I don’t buy computers. I build them. I realize that nothing is perfect, and $300 is hardly enough to piss and moan over. It’s my purchase, and if I have regrets it was my mistake in buying it. I’m not guaranteed a good console, but what I’ve seen so far is promising.

If you don’t understand the subtle difference between carrying a holstered gun on your person and actively pointing it at someone, you’re beyond help.

Well, when in Rome, do what the Romans do.

There was a time where everyone respected the rule: If someone cooked the food and you ate it, you do the clean-up - or at least assist.

Everything on Snapchat is so damn banal. The kind of content you’ll get there is low effort, boring, shitty, garbage that I could do without. It’s so rare than anything there is even remotely interesting. Maybe I need more interesting friends/family...

Because a lot of what we (I’m 34...) post on there is, frankly, stupid shit. Not just n00dz, either. Throwaway things we don’t feel the need to have preserved and be reminded of yearly. Or don’t want evidence of (bitching about your boss, your appearance and mood with a righteous hangover, etc). Where IG is about…

This is a solid and fair point. But one issue is that “proper airlines” are starting to resemble flying busses.

That would be exactly the definition of *not* international lol!

I also SO appreciate that at the end of each segment, there’s 2-3 minutes of, “After the commercial, this will happen!” and then before the next segment starts, there’s another 2-3 minutes of, “This is what JUST happened! You already know because you just watched it, but watch it again!” If they cut out just that…

They make products that use awesome materials. That’s it. awesome materials that absorb/wick away sweat, keep you warm, are comfortable to wear. The designs are all done by a blind chicken. Because that stuff looks straight out of the Walmart clearance aisle.

As a urban 30-something, the only time I ever see anyone wearing Under Armor is when I’m forced to go to some 5-year old’s birthday party and all the loser kids are decked out head to toe in that shit. And it’s like, “fuck man, your kid ain’t gonna be no pro athlete.”
