Have gay people ever used the logic that evolution shows you that "actually we were always meant to be gay and science is on my side"? I think that is the tone / type of comment that a lot of people here are objecting to.

You're giving her way too much credit, man. She also got into it with Angel Haze, Lil Kim, Nicki, A$AP, Jim Jones.... she'll go in on anyone.

If you're getting magazine covers and working with Timbo, you're not really that niche any more.

Are you just requesting that an additional adjective should have been used to narrow down the region a bit? Or do you actually think that a hafu who was the product of one Japanese parent and another East Asian parent would produce the same reaction? If the latter, I have a bridge to sell you.

When I was in London, Carlsberg was tremendously cheap at bars. I remember a place where you could get it for two pounds, which was about 2/3 or less of what you'd usually pay. That was its only virtue.

"Elisabeth von Thurn und Taxis (born Elisabeth Margarethe Maria Anna Beatriz Prinzessin von Thurn und Taxis on 24 March 1982)..."

Flores saying "cape up" seems sort of forced to anyone? You're forty five, man.

OK mayonnaise boy.

And?

Would you be excited if they told you "Look, the 76ers are going to stop existing until 2018. Like we literally won't even bother to play. In exchange, we'll back in 2018 with a 25% of being a contender."?

Nope. I'm not a Sixers stan, and I'm referring to how they got the pick rather than what they did with it. The fact that the Bucks went from a playoff team to last place due to things Larry Sanders punching people is kind of silly. The Bucks went into the season thinking they were a playoff team, and wound up with…

And all this was done before Hinkie arrived, so it is irrelevant to the discussion. The question is what contracts Hinkie had that necessitated this.

True, but the Bucks just tripped over their own dicks and landed on Jabari Parker and Greek Freak. Not really a sensible strategy.

True enough, I'm mostly with you on the Bucks. If you draw a list of "legit" opponents (let's say West playoff teams, OKC, top 5 East teams adjusting for KD and LBJ's health), you'll only find something like 5 Bucks wins in 20ish games.

OK, nice was a stretch. I thought it had been a team option, but instead he was just a UFA. I guess I was confusing it with his Cleveland deal.

I'm sympathetic to your overall point here, but your choice of examples assumes the Bucks are anything more than flukes in the terrible flotsam of the East right now. Not sure about that. Their record is pretty good, but on the other hand, every Eastern team with a worse record than them has been pretty terrible…

What were these supposedly unbearable errors that Philly had in 2013? That Bynum deal was actually pretty nice, and Holiday was pretty good for the money at the time (and arguably so were Thad, Hawes, and even JRich). I don't think they had any obvious albatross contracts.

I think you are misunderstanding my use of the word "hot." Having a hot song and having a serious song are not at all at odds with one another, as the way I'm contrasting Kendrick and J Cole should indicate.

Dude can spit, no doubt, but hasn't put out an actual hot song in, by my count, four years. Some solid stuff throughout (Power Trip ain't bad!) but more or less forgettable. Nothing that anyone will be bumping in 2018, unlike GKMC or even some of Drake's singles. As often as not, he commits the cardinal sin of being…

I agree with your overall comment but Cole is the Big Anything these days? And gets talked about with Drake and Kendrick?
