W.T. Sherman nods in approval.
I will never forgive these chucklefucks for 28-3. Jesus Christ
When someone is nice to you in Philadelphia that’s when you know something has gone horribly wrong.
I’m a Lions fan who has now lived in the Philadelphia area for over 20 years. The last time the Lions played here (in the middle of a fucking blizzard in 2013) the Eagles fans in the section I was sitting in didn’t bother to even heckle me, THEY BOUGHT ME A SYMPATHY BEER
like when you try to give your cousin grief over video games to make him feel normal while he slowly dies of leukemia
Reading this article is probably the happiest I’ll be during this Lions season. Imagine being the fan of a franchise and the happiest you know you’ll be during the entire football season is reading a Drew Magary piece in freakin’ July.
BUT WAS HE REALLY EVER THE BEST X-WING PILOT IN ANY GIVEN YEAR?
WAS HE A REALLY DOMINANT X-WING PILOT?
DID HE HAVE REALLY GREAT BLASTER FINGER PUSHING RANGE AND STRENGTH?
WASN’T HE JUST THERE BECAUSE OF ALL THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM AND GETTING LUCKY, LIKE SHOOTING WAMP RATS BACK HOME?
...a lifetime of discussions about whether he should be in the hall of fame for two X-wing flights in which the death star got blown up.
“Wow, amazing. NONE of the Citroen trucks lasted more than 3,000 miles and they all failed catastrophically! Congrats on the sabotage.”
I’ll take “guy who knows things” shtick over your “performative outrage” shtick any day of the week, thanks.
I mean, Crosbie is just taking umbrage with deGrasse Tyson being goofy on Twitter, which just seems a weird and petty thing to write an article about. He never actually once brings up the sexual harassment allegations against him, either, just...his silly tweets?
Is “science education” a ‘shtick’...? Like I’m trying to see your point of view here but this is all kind of weird. “Shut the fuck up, guy doing dad joke science enrichment on Twitter, your science enrichment is bad”
Of the ten heroes released after the game launched, Sigma is the first white man.
Yeah, to go with the 6 others out of 30.
Jack Crosbie really wanted to tell NDT to “go back to where he came from”, but had to settle on “shut the fuck up”, because it is so much kinder and gentler, him being Mr Woke.
I’d kinda prefer you take your own advice instead of attacking one of the few people in the world with a platform, who’s actually trying to educate and make people smarter so maybe this sad dystopia we’re heading for can be averted.
Counterpoint: NDT has taught me many things, and Jack Crosbie has not enriched my life in literally any conceivable way.
He just taught me that water crystals have six-fold symmetry. That probably wouldn’t have happened without his input. I don’t know. Learning stuff can be kind of good.
