Seriously, holy shit. I’m 35 and she looks just about old enough to be my mother. In fact I’d say that my 66-year old mother looks a lot closer to 36 than this woman does

I grew up in Chicago, lived elsewhere for ~20 years, and just moved back last fall. When my wife and I were looking for a place to live we were working with a realtor who was regularly sending us listings for us to provide feedback; we rejected so many immediately despite looking perfect in terms of layout, size,…

As a Cubs fan I’m bound to disagree with you on most things, but “fuck the St. Louis Cardinals” is something we can all get behind

I was only slightly surprised by a few of the characters that survived, and not at all surprised by any of the ones who died. I was 100% expecting the deaths of Theon, Baric, Lyanna Mormont, and Edd. Pod and Gendry I had at 50/50, so while I wouldn’t have been shocked to see either or both go I also wasn’t surprised…

Coming at it from that angle does not change a thing. The only way that this shooting can be in any way an indictment of the Giants and their inability to draft “high-character guys” is if Ballentine is somehow responsible the shooting. Unless the Giants claimed that Ballentine was literally Superman and impervious to…

Also, while LaToya correctly points out in her musings that both Pimento and Marcus better understood Rosa’s “cop” side than Jocelyn, that actually makes sense to me from a character standpoint. Pimento was a cop, and Marcus is the close relative of a cop (Holt’s nephew), so they’ve got a lot more context for…

I was really hoping it was going to turn out that Jocelyn was going to be the bad guy. Would’ve sucked for Rosa but also would’ve made for a hell of a twist

You’re the one that seems to have the misfortune of playing with a bunch of douchebags. Seriously, 25 years ago when most guys (especially at that level) were still using wooden sticks that cost $20-$30 a pop that tactic would be annoying but no big deal. Nowadays when everyone’s using composite sticks that cost…

I dunno, I don’t watch a ton of college football but my buddies and I do make a trip to one random game a year and even though it was against a (supposedly) middling opponent last year we went to Columbus for the OSU-Minnesota game. I’ve got to say I was more than a little underwhelmed by Haskins and really everybody…

This exactly. If you think there is any communication whatsoever between the side of the business that is producing and distributing Marvel movies and the side of the business that does things like broadcast the NFL draft then I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn I’d love to sell to you.

I very nearly turned off my TV and went to be last night after the Knights made it 3-0 in the 3rd period. Holy fuck am I glad that I did not, dragging ass today be damned

Customer: “Hi, can you please perform this easy task that is clearly a part of your job description?”

Good for Martin Jones for battling back, but it still boggles my fucking mind that the Sharks did not address goaltending at all at the trade deadline. Obviously the Blue Jackets decided to go for it so Sergei Bobrovsky ended up not being on the table, but there were a slew of other pending-UFA goalies that would have…

The issues are with the defenseless position that Oshie was in (back to the player that shoved him and hunched over) and his distance from and trajectory into the boards. That was one of the absolute dirtiest, most dangerous hits that can happen on an ice rink and should have led to a 5-minute major, ejection, and a lo…

The fact that the officer never mentioned any such complaints makes it pretty fucking obvious that there weren’t any and it’s pure bullshit

Lots of Columbus fans were pretty salty on Twitter last night about how literally no one picked them to advance. As a neutral observer (I’m a Blackhawks fan, and I lived in DC for a while so the Caps are the only Eastern Conference team I give any fucks about) I think that it’s fair to say that a) it was completely…

The only controversial part was that it took 7 whole minutes to make the objectively correct call.

Quadruple extra fuck Raffi Torres now and forever. But also fuck Mike Smith, I still haven’t forgiven him for that insane flop that the ensuing “maybe he’s concussed” con job that led to Shaw getting suspended for 3 games. If it weren’t for Mike Smith I’d definitely be rooting for the Flames to come out of the west,…

17a: Loudly complaining to literally everyone about a (relatively) small group of people calling you a dumb asshole is the kind of thing only a dumb asshole would do

Leverage. Not only did AB demand a trade out of Pittsburh, which alone hurt the team’s leverage in any trade negotiations, he also made it abundantly clear that he a) wouldn’t report anywhere without a new contract, and b) wouldn’t sign said contract with just anyone (eg the nixed trade to Buffalo) further hurting…
