Here’s hoping that Durant takes the temporary insanity of “a generally polite and kind people reduced to cheering for his injury” as the sort of affirmation he needs to finally be at peace.

OMG I just realized what Diddy was referencing at the start of the video! “You must wanna be in the Guinness Book of World Records...”

HI MY NAME IS “THE NCAA IN 2019" AND MY ILLNESS IS TERMINAL. MY DYING WISH IS TO HELP MY FRIENDS ACCUMULATE WEALTH AND PERPETUATE HIERARCHIES. PLEASE HELP ME ACHIEVE THIS GOAL.

I think you’re on pretty solid ground here. We choose to check out or ignore posts based on their headlines, header images, and whatever the little preview snippet of a sentence or two is called. An excerpt from a book is doesn’t work unless it’s a standalone thing. The clickstuff and the content were going in differen…

The mighty Achilles, greatest warrior of antiquity, would not sit out Game 5 of the frickin’ NBA Finals just because he had one bad leg!

This is also a great moment to acknowledge that four reporters quoted three different phrasings for one sentence.

Yeah, this is really what the series has been about: the times the Blues can’t keep up with the Bruins, and lose badly, versus the times they get away with some crazy shit and manage to squeak out a win. So of course Berube needed to work the refs. The game plan absolutely requires refs to “let them play,” and a quick…

I went to a high school with a really strong hockey program, and one of the biggest “growing up” moments of my life was finally being old enough to try out for varsity in tenth grade and seeing how much better those other goalies were than me. I mean, I already knew they were better, but it was just insane to be…

Not for nothing, but the Bruins are 1-6 in Cup finals since they won their last of the Orr years in 1972. Hardly a sure thing.

I would have had no problem with a call on Marchand for the low-bridge on Tarasenko. It’s clipping! Call that shit! And while you’re at it, call the other obvious shit!

the lasting image of the home finale will be trash raining down on the ice

Remarkably, an “expert” at a D-I Footbaw School is here to reassure us that the onset of what became a fatal medical condition should actually have been to a mere blip in a practice schedule [emphasis mine]:

Most dives into the seats occur along the baseline, or the sidelines as far north as the top of the key. Bey and her ilk sit much closer to center court, where there’s far fewer opportunities for something like that to happen. The point is, the celebrities are safe, thank heavens.

No big deal, world keeps on spinning.

Co-signing the name recognition point, but I’ll just add in case it hasn’t been already that he gave up his seat in the US House for this pretty silly presidential run. He decided to stop being a legislator so he could have a chance to be the chief executive. I get that he declared in 2017, and was the first elected…

I could not stop laughing at this. I don’t like cringe comedy, I don’t enjoy the physical/emotional discomfort or pain of others, but this one... holy shit, I was in tears last night, nearly convulsing with laughter.

Call me Airwolf, because this comment has me like “fapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfap.”
