The worst thing about you bringing this up is than in many cases being pedantic corrects use of language that creates confusion or misstates the point the speaker was trying to make. The maker of the video used “if I do say so myself” as the equivalent of “in my humble opinion,” and while not the long lost traditional…

Hold weigh-in an hour before the fight. No 20lb cutting to make weight, you fight at the weight you fight at, no bullshit.

Problem solved.

You’re making the broad assumption that farmers (who have to deal with things like climate change, GM crops, marketing, running often multi-million dollar businesses) are dumber even at face value, and somehow less knowledgeable about “problems” than an urban office assistant with a bachelors.

These motherfuckers have…

No, they just do a little bit of pandering here and there, like the Martian and Gravity both having the Chinese space program play a key role in the film because China only lets a certain number of foreign movies screen and because they are the world’s second largest movie-going population.

I’m not going to comment on…

The Robert Patrick seasons were, although not entirely, considerably weaker than the high point around seasons 5 and 6 before Duchovny left. He was no more replaced by Robert Patrick than Anderson was “replaced” properly by Annabeth Gish in the duo.

Having grown up in WI, there is a level of “fuck the cold” that you develop naturally from that long stretch of the year when the first thing that happens when you walk out the door is a cold gust of wind that shreds you right to the bone.

But honestly there’s a lot more going on here, if a girl from a city 90 miles…

Madison native, I feel like a lot of it is just the circle you run with, most of my friends in college were natives and they’d absolutely never let you wander off into the night. There’s a wide berth between people who grew up in WI and will be out at night jumping from bar to bar in a T-Shirt fully aware that they…

It’s great because you can see the WI vanity plate. “WUBBI”. Indeed, WUBBI 4 LIFE. XUBBI? KUBBI? They’re all good.

He played 9 NFL seasons which at a minimum would grant him close to 9 million dollars, of course he actually made considerably more than that. Before I have sympathy for him I’ll remember that playing one year as a pro would provide him more financial security than most people in the world have ever had. “I forget…

Fuck me, I had to reskim the article four times before I found it. Sorry.

Women are held to an entirely different standard of physical fitness, google the APFT standards. A 19 year old woman isn’t even expected to meet the same standards a a 40 year old man.

The second quote appears to have been made up whole cloth by a Gawker editor because it certainly doesn’t show up in any of the cited…

As a note, that judgement was made by a Gawker staffer and in no way verified by any source material. The statement is entirely the editorializing of the author.

The linked article literally says nothing about the race, age, marital status, or even a passing reference to the belief that it will destroy “trust groups”.…

Except that women are held to an entirely different standard.

A woman 17-21 performing 42 pushups, 78 situps, and running 15:36 2-mile would score a perfect 300 for women, but something closer to a 190 for males. A woman performing at the bar minimums for passing (180) would score 98 on the male charts. A 17-21 year…

Yeah, I don’t know the specifics of the situation I was reading about but I know there are loopholes in what falls under “domestic violence that would keep you from getting a gun” and what we colloquially call domestic violence. I think it can even go as far as to be whether it’s any physical altercation or whether…

I actually had to look it up because I know the specifics of what constitutes “domestic violence” vary from state to state, but it appears that all state laws just make things harsher some going as far as saying any physical contact during an altercation, even if it doesn’t meet the standards of other crimes involving…

Form 4473 (the form to purchase a firearm) line i “Have you ever been convicted in any court of a misdemeanor crime of Domestic Violence.” Under the Domestic Violence Offender Gun Ban if she had pressed charges he would not have been allowed to buy the firearm. Of course there’s nothing that would have stopped him…
