It’s remarkably simple. You notice a lot of people are saying “this thing is good.” You consume it yourself and think “hey, wait a second, this thing is bad.” You reach (lash) out in an attempt to reconcile those two opinions.

Find a long-form interview with him and you will no longer consider this surprising. He’s sincere and honest, self-deprecating to an appropriate degree (without it feeling like a schtick or defense mechanism), and clearly means well. Granted, you might not find his work to be enjoyable, and his energy can get…

He likes it when people say things that he likes, and he dislikes it when people say things he dislikes. What an outrageous hypocrite.

If you read the whole letter it says “After one year we will work with our customers to reach a fair solution if a product is defective in any way.” I take that to mean they still pretty much plan on honoring the original intent of the policy, and are just reserving the right to turn away those they think are abusing…

This is a pretty basic function of economies of scale, and true of just about any product you can buy. A gallon of milk is a better value than 4 quarts, a case of beer is cheaper than 4 sixers, etc.

I (male) have done this so many times. Buzzed it all off, dyed it blue and then buzzed that off a week later, full on mohawk, gave myself a haircut with scissors.

I’ve been going to this high school for seven and a half years. I’m no dummy. I know high school girls.

Christ. I saw Eck comment on that line live. It was blunt, but really not particularly nasty or scathing. It was right in line with what Eck does, which is to call it like it is. He actually does a great job of pointing out when a guy would like to be doing a better job without being critical of the person or…

Play the first three quarters unchanged (timed) and then in the fourth, the first team to score 20 more points than the high score at the start of the quarter wins. So if it’s 80-60 after 3, the first team to 100 wins. You can still get epic blowouts and high scoring affairs, you’re still essentially guaranteed 4 full…

I war really just taking a cheap shot at the pseudo Whalers fans. Sometime around ten years ago Whalers gear absolutely blew up as a fashion statement in Connecticut.

If nostalgic/ironic extinct team memorabilia sales numbers drove franchise decisions, Hartford would have two Whalers teams right now.

Have y0u never looked at any of their logos or their mascot?

I was waiting for the twist where you get there and get all your belongings stolen immediately.

Ladies, I’ve always been curious: is Justin Long attractive? His dating resume is far more impressive than makes sense to me.

“When the league abrogates responsibility for policing a grudge match, it hands that responsibility to the likes of Tom Sestito, and that’s when bad things tend to happen.”

Really solid question. I’m going to think about it and get back to you.

I have. I didn’t love it, and can’t say I want to live there, but honestly it wasn’t as terrible as I expected. I haven’t been to Cleveland, but judging by the parts of the Rust Belt that I have visited, Atlanta is the lesser of two evils.

Got it. I think I got confused by reading another reply in between the question and your post. I agree, Cleveland would be the worse place to live.

Why would you rather live in Cleveland?

No, not really. It’s more like if your high school had an amazing nationally ranked debate team. You’re aware of what they’re accomplishing, and you respect the hell out of them for it, but you’re not going to worship them.
