Not really. They both really like Infinity War and Wonder Woman, and are mostly mild on big releases. They only go full nuts on shitty movies like Anabelle:Creation and The Mummy. I think people want fawning praise or unmitigated criticism, but Mike and Jay are able to find the good and bad and laugh at both of them.…

Yeah, Phil Scott is about the most boring politician in the world. A Vermont Republican is a whole lot different than your run-of-the-mill Republican.

My biological father is (was?) an itinerant alcoholic and wife/mother beater who almost killed his 90 year old mom because she told him he couldn’t have alcohol in the house. On the other hand, my step-dad is a hardworking, understanding, and caring man who makes my mom happy, which is really the only thing that…

How many times in the last 15 years have you called him "boy"?

Hard Times is probably the best wrestling promo of all-time, with My Way being 1A. He wasn’t just fighting against Flair, but all the things that Flair represented: the faux upper class trappings, the disdain for people that were, essentially, just like him, and the inevitable march against the working class. It…

Tell Em, by Sleigh Bells. It's also my wrestling intro theme.

I am right at 6'0" too, but I broke my collar bone years ago and didn’t heal right so I literally slope to one side which take a solid 2 inches off unless I fully (and painfully) stand stock straight. 

I won a radio contest in middle school on Simpsons trivia and got a crappy shirt that had Homer sitting on the couch. It was two sizes too big and ugly as sin, but I was proud, and I wore that thing for about a month without washing it or ever changing out.

If I could downvote a comment, this one would be the one.

Ten years ago I had to apply for a Q clearance for my job at a national lab. I never received it because the investigator’s car got stolen with my personal, sensitive material still in it and the contractor I worked for lost their contract because too many people got injured. I still get letters from the GAO and OPM…

Thank you! My main problem with The Dark Knight is that Nolan is a consumate stylist over everything else. The film is georgous to look at, and Nolan’s greatest talent is creating an unending sense of dread, but holy crap I just didn’t care about any of it. Bruce Wayne is a jerk, Batman is hilariously stilted, Harvey…

I think a lot of it comes down to purpose and history, but that being said there’s no definitive marker that says something is cultural appropriation. One example I like to use is when people say they’re some nationality, like somebody saying they’re Irish and adopting shamrocks and all-green without really…

“Trying to help” means absolute dick when it comes to assisting with an operation. I work in homeless services, and we often get people who “try to help” by showing up unannounced with arm-fulls of food that we cannot possibly use or store. People “try to help” by doing what they think is correct instead of deferring…

About five years ago Paul George and Danny Granger were hosting a basketball camp at the University of New Mexico and staying at the hotel I used to work at. I was a huge fan of Granger’s at that time and told my coworker, who asked them if they could sign a basketball for me, which was wildly against company policy.…

It must be bunnies! Or maybe midgets.

I am partial to the MATN YOLO run, which is no healing/no companions/permadeath.

These are the people that call themselves "classical liberals."

One I just read for my graduate course on revolutions is Avengers of the New World by Duke University professor Laurent Dubois. It’s a pretty straight history and doesn’t shy away from the ideological underpinnings of the revolution nor the massive violence it spawned. Highly recommended. 

Exactly. History is all about interpretation, and these people want to believe that their pedantry makes them experts.

Still relevant.
