but if it’s a hot dog that raises an even bigger question - is it a sandwich?

To be fair re: Yakupov, it’s hard to fault the Oilers there (unless you want to make the argument that they failed to develop him properly). He was the consensus #1 prospect in that draft, whoever won the draft lottery was going to take him first it just happened to be the Oilers. It’s not like they went off the board…

That trade is actually incredibly damning of Chiarelli because he traded a better forward (Hall > Johansen) for a considerably lesser defenseman (Jones >>> Larsson)

The dudes were clearly pissed about the Cowboys losing and decided to take out their frustration on the waitress. Which means that not only are they complete douchebags for the shitty tip and “fuck you” note, but they’re also pathetic fucking losers for deciding that the best way to deal with the disappointment of…

Definitely mis-read this as being about Chili’s ATM network, not Chile’s, which would be infinitely more hilarious and presumably less harmful (other than to people addicted to really shitty baby back ribs of course)...

Yeah, but the difference is that Marvel had already earned moviegoers’ trust before trying something as nuts as Guardians, i.e. an ensemble movie featuring characters that no one except for comic book lovers had ever even heard of. That was the biggest criticism of Suicide Squad (well, before anyone actually saw the…

It was a running joke the entire time she and Rory were companions that Rory (and pretty much everyone else) was scared of her. She didn’t do a lot of physical kick-assery because that’s just not what Doctor Who is all about, but her ability to do so was very heavily implied for the duration of her run on the show

Who would’ve guessed that Amy Pond would turn out to be so convincing at playing physical badasses on-screen?

So when the Cardinals go 3-13 (or worse) again next year does Kingsbury get turfed after just 1 season, or does that only happen to non-white coaches in Arizona who fail in their 1st season with absolute shit rosters?

Based on absolutely nothing, I feel like the main reason that the school is in Indiana is to force Irish Catholics from the northeast to live in the midwest for a few years

do you feel embiggened?

I also grew up in Chicago in the late 80's and 90's, and as a Chicagoan there is literally no middle ground - you are required to either love or hate Notre Dame, completely and unconditionally, regardless of whether or not you have any semblance of a connection to the school. I grew up in the hating Notre Dame camp,…

Given the score and his lack of confidence in the kicker, I understand the reasoning behind calling the fake field goal instead of actually kicking it. But the second Clemson lines up in a standard defensive set and makes it abundantly clear that they expect and are ready for a fake it becomes absurdly stupid to keep…

All of these are excellent points, and I fully agree with the entirety of your post. There is one additional point I’d like to raise as well - how much more complicated and dangerous it becomes for the officers responding to the active shooter situation if there are armed “good-guy” civilians involved. Will an armed…

There is literally no possible way that Mitt Romney has ever had even a fraction of the coordination required to dance like that for the amount of time that elapses in that clip without either falling over or kicking someone (or both). He couldn’t even handle being the guy in the hat on the far left, middle-school-slow…

It’s a well established fact by this point that anybody who complains about anything being too “PC” without a hint of irony is either an absolute moron or an unrepentant troll. In either case, engaging with said complainer is virtually always an exercise in futility

The Berlin Wall actually worked reasonably well for what it was intended to do, the biggest difference between it and the wall that MAGA dolts want to build (aside from the logistical nightmare you point out of making it over 200x longer, which in and of itself makes it a practical impossibility to build) is that the…

Maybe he simply surrendered ownership since it wasn’t the Cowboys?

There is literally only 1 thing I use my whiskey stones f0r - when I’m using my sous vide to cook something, I’ll put the whiskey stone on top of the vacuum-sealed bag that holds the food I’m cooking in order to weigh it down and ensure it stays fully submerged while it’s cooking. I mean, I could use just plain old…

to be fair, it is literally the show’s only flaw
