You should NEVER rely on the safety. You should always double or triple check the gun to ensure that it is not loaded before putting it in a case. If you are carrying a weapon for self defense, it should be holstered, and you should damn well know how to treat it safely.

If you are in Raleigh just eat Char Grill.

Laughing at homeless people is where Deadspin commentators draw the line?

I really do not understand why anyone attends Wake Forest when UNC is just as good and a third of the price.

I did. They are pretty good. The art and writing was way above par for the time period.

99.9 in Raleigh has Adam and Joe in the afternoon slot. They basically do an ersatz Dan LeBatard and are really good at it. The noon slot is filled by David Glenn, who is a bit vanilla but well informed and smart.

The Sabbath ends at sundown Saturday anyways, so they are obviously worried about the large Orthodox audience in California.

Yes. It depends on the trajectory, but a bullet can either “flutter” down and cause minor damage or maintain its rifling and travel in a ballistic arc and kill you. It sounds like this woman got the better end of the spectrum.

His whole persona is an extended satire on the Inside the Beltline Raleigh culture. If you did not grow up here you would not get the humor. However, I assure you it is definitely Kaufmanesqe.

That account is a part parody, part local gossip, part local news. I am 97% sure that is not his actual name. You really have to be from one specific part of Raleigh to grasp the humor.

Embrace the power of “and”.

I work at a poo poo treatment plant. Aeration basins actually smell like soil after a decent afternoon shower (unless your plant is jacked). Don’t blame the dog.

You fail the ideological Turing test forever.

Did you read that article? I think it says the opposite of what you think it does.

Pure water at atmospheric pressure freezes at 0 Celcius. As soon as impurities are added (i.e. the water is exposed to air) or the pressure varies the freezing point changes as well.

My Dad was on a men’s over forty all star team in the mid nineties and pitched an inning against the Silver Bullets. He was booed viciously by the crowd after allowing only one hit and no runs.

I agree. It makes no sense to punish the city that was the impetus for HB 2 in the first place.

I have lived in Raleigh my entire life, grew up in a conservative, Christian, Republican family, and I can assure you that no one in Raleigh has ever said that.

My parents emigrated from Detroit to Raleigh in the late 70s. My wife’s from Connecticut in the early 90s. Having visited those places rather frequently, I can assure you that the level of everyday politeness and thoughtfulness is several orders of magnitude higher in Raleigh.
