“The Lite Rumsfeldian archness of expression...”

I like that they clearly made an effort to keep it going while Drew was sidelined, and then he’s back for two weeks and they’re like “ok enough effort, we’ll just fuck off this week.”

What I can’t believe: STILL NO DEADCAST.

It’s American society. The behavior of the right wing rich guys IRL has finally trickled into baseball.

The report specifically says they were on 690. Rt. 690 near the Thompson Road exit is very definitely a three-to-four-lane, limited-access highway (on ramps and off ramps only) where the speed limit is 55 MPH and on which pedestrians are very definitely not allowed.

Jimenez was a passenger in a car that lost control on the highway and struck a guardrail.

It’s brutal.  A close friend of mine had a man commit suicide by walking into traffic and she hit and killed him.  Beyond the absolute horror of having seen someone die that up close and knowing that you’re “responsible”, she had to prove in court that the man was actually committing suicide so that she wasn’t charge…

Yeah, especially as they’ve confirmed that drugs and alcohol (and speeding) wasn’t involved. You can do everything you’re supposed to as a driver and still not be prepared for a pedestrian to appear in front of you on the highway.

I know Boeheim is an irascible jerkbox who routinely undermines his own players as they leave for the NBA, and is not exactly well-liked outside of Syracuse, but I wouldn’t wish this on anyone. Obviously, the man who lost his life and his friends and family are even more affected, but it must feel horrible to be…

Ahem, the correct term for those “suburban office complexes” is “Business Parks” or “Campuses” (IKR - gimme a fucking break).

Check, check, check! You forgot Trainspotting though!!

I was there and can confirm this, along with (in my circle at least) Pulp Fiction and Dazed and Confused.

I’m glad they pointed out the part about the guys having to trudge through a draining ditch to get anywhere to eat. The absolute last things those suburban office complexes are designed for is pedestrian traffic, as anyone who has ever been near one can attest. 

Something Office Space and King of the Hill have that none of their successors share is a real sense of suburban America. As good as The Office (USA) or anything else cited in the article are, they still feel like shows made in California and written by people who went to ivy league schools. Judge really knows how to…

Not so little known fact... Mike Judge originally went to Boston Stapler to ask if he could use their stapler in the film (at no charge to Boston Stapler), Boston refused to allow it.

Seriously, there’s nothing “caviar” about his lifestyle. It’s the typical small-to-mid-sized-city/suburban crappy corporate job existence. It’s crappy chain restaurant problems. He’d probably be making maybe $40-50k today.

“First time, long time. Machado doesn’t have what it takes to be a True Yankee.

As a White Sox fan who has spent the past 3 fucking months stressing out about Machado and was fooled into feeling hope, the only thing that brings me solace is that that child and the whole lot of you cocky Yankee fan fucks were denied him too.  At least I’m used to this shit.  The Padres?  Yeeeeesh

“And now it’s time for the seventh inning stretch-the-truth...”

It was soup day at the ballpark.
