You married a keeper. I, for the life of me will never understand why someone would want to create financial strain, all so they can brag to their friends about the size of a rock. A house is forever, you can’t accidentally drop a house down a drain while washing your hands. Engagement rings are a fraud, and I would…

Oh, I absolutely shouldn't have, but it's divine to drive, and has enough sspace to fit the whole family while moving along at a brisk yet drama-free 155mph.

Ha, truth!

Good. I would like a nice vacation or down payment rather than a ring, partly because I can’t fucking imagine having a jewel on my hand for the rest of my life. Functionally, I just don’t get it, it’s like screwing a small bolt into the top of my finger. Why would I do that? It will get dirty and catch on things and I…

I’m in a similar boat. Seriously, why isn’t society pushing back harder on this garbage, manufactured tradition that gets many people in un-needed debt before the marriage even begins! Add over-the-top expensive weddings to the list too.

That’s fantastic and I wish more women would set this example. Although my partner and I are upper middle-class, I can’t wrap my head around the idea of wearing $2-4K (four thousand dollars?!) on my finger. And an ethically sourced diamond is exponentially more (no blood diamonds for me).

And most importantly, you get to be self righteous in comment threads about engagement rings. And who can put a price on that?

This is exactly what I would do. I like jewelry but I don’t need a ring.

they also both potentially employ a rushin’ leader

All I have to offer is that my dad saw him in a restaurant in NYC and mentioned it to me for the sole purpose of telling me that he’s not very tall. “But we both already knew that,” I said. “Still,” said my dad, who thinks a lot of Russell Wilson.

Can we continue the hottest sports takes post from yesterday, and just focus on Wilson? Dude is going to have an unfathomably embarrassing scandal in the next 5-6 years.

Justin Verlander can’t be bothered to play, as he’s used to getting hit in the face by large jugs on a nightly basis.

If Deadspin’s gonna report on Spanish-language stories, it’d be cool if you guys had someone on staff who can speak the language instead of using Google Translate and secondhand accounts. It’s come up before in soccer articles, but this is an especially weird example. It’s not like this is a bad article or anything,…

Well for me the key was to simply let them in. Once they walk in and see 20 blacked out dudes hitting on 8 fat chicks they usually leave fairly quickly. But then again maybe my college experience wasn’t like everyone else’s...

As someone who is like 5'8", I’d punch that guy in the face for being a delusional asshat. 5'10" is only “tall” in places like India, eastern Asia, and Mexico. If you’re in a nation with a predominately European and African ancestry, 5'10" is about an inch over average (or in other words, it’s pretty much average).

When someone hits you high causing damage to your eye
That’s Amar’e

That’s Amar’e

Lebron begged Cleveland to hire him, and they wouldn’t. What greater evidence that he’s been blacklisted, and...wait wait, I’m getting Cheez-doodles on my keyboard, I’ve said too much.

This is the first persuasive pro-cargo argument I’ve heard.

I’m in, as long as you bring the hash.
