Added wrinkle: the book was basically advocating the militarism and fascism that the movie mocks. So Verhoeven’s satire wasn’t just trolling Hollywood and the viewer, he was trolling Heinlein’s source material as well.

Honestly, this kind of reminds me of how Tiger Woods’ reign at the top ended, only instead of a 9-iron, it was somebody else’s foot.

Psh. It’s obviously a crisis actor.

Thanks for volunteering and being “that guy” today.

Wow, you came up with all of that in, what, five minutes? How long do you think people making driverless cars have been thinking about those exact scenarios (and hundreds of other’s you haven’t even thought of)? Do you really think these companies are going to come to market with cars (which non-autonomously already…

I don't know that I've ever been more depressed eating out then the time I was traveling and ate dinner alone at a Denny's. Other places it was mostly fine, but somehow alone at Denny's is the nadir of human loneliness.

I blame the English language. It’s not Natasha’s fault that “All you can eat” can be singular or plural (and boo to Denny’s for taking advantage of the ambiguity). This wouldn’t have happened in Shakespeare’s day. When the tavern had an “All thou canst eat” special, everybody knew it only meant thee, not thy whole…

Before you get on the NFL about this issue, just remember that they employ more colorblind people than any other business. And that’s just including the refs.

You know you fucked up when Philadelphia has the moral high ground

Well, I mean, technically he is correct — no one ever asked Obama or Clinton why they lied about meeting Gen Westmoreland or pretended to stab a guy or invented stickup or created an imaginary Most Honest Student award at Yale that makes so sense. So they’ve never faced exactly the kind of scrutiny that Carson has.

The real risk and the genuinely serious harm is not from the photos at all but from law enforcement. The photo trading is embarrassing but mostly harmless - criminal charges or a conviction will ruin your life.

I’m guessing within 10 years this will be seen as a normal part of teenage sexual experimentation.

We do need to change the laws somehow, BC kids are going to send naked pics between each other. After one accepts that, let’s next stop any possibility of a stupid prosecutor from having the ability on a whim of getting kids lifetime sex abuser tags. We also have the problem of one year diff in ages for 17/18 couples…

We are truly lucky in that regard. Witnesses to our high school horrors were limited to the few people that actually knew us and certainly didn’t make any sort of news.

Im surprised Wayne Fontes never got a second chance somewhere

“Stafford? The 15th best QB in the NFL *available*?!”

I love how white men that claim to live in fear of ‘government tyranny’ and believe that it is righteous to rebel against it are the first ones to insist that all black people should strictly obey every police officer like a submissive dog.

It was absolutely a promotion. the show went national. Big bump in pay from what it sounds like, at least for stugotz.

I thought that being the guy to replace Cowherd was a promotion.

Dan has zero interest in asking athletes and coaches anything that has to do with x’s and o’s. His only goal is to get the interviewee to reveal something personal, interesting, different or exciting, and it usually has nothing to do with the actual games. The only times interviews go very south is when the subject…
