Is it just me or is she everywhere lately? I dont believe I’ve seen her acting, but by all accounts its terrible. Instead of casting taller Taryn Manning, why dont they just cast the real deal, who actually can act!

What makes this funnier is that the author is basically describing herself; she has the same hair and appearance as the character. She’s basically on the cover, too - which was also plagiarized!

At best, its a symbol of sedition - hardly something for an American to be proud of.

Brandon Sanderson clears his throat, drops his latest brick of a novel on the table, and offers to finish off the series for him.

Quite the dichotomy in the D-league, where the Warriors affiliate plays there, while the Nets affiliate plays in the fucking renovated Nassau Coliseum! 

Awesome, thanks so much!

Question, where can one find a list of the Gizmodo podcasts? I already listen to Deadcast, and just found out about this one and will give it a listen. Are there any others?

Better than striking out on a full-count, bases-loaded curve - looking.

Trendacosta has been a godsend.

Fuck man, if you want to have a conversation, do your time and go over to the nearest mosque for Eid al Adha dinner. Talk all you want and expand your horizons both mentally and culinarily.

And to add to what Mondo-Carnie below said, if you really want to get technical about this, the original Alladin story is set in islamic China.

I really kind of hate how people love to tear people down. And to some extent, Rousey has invited it a bit, people alternatively love a showboat so long as they back it up, but once they lose, people jump on them for talking big.

If he truly wants to take the risk to play ball, can’t he just go overseas and just rampage through one of the European or Chinese leagues?

I think I’ve sworn off hardcover books. I read a lot of fantasy novels and most of them are the size of bricks. Ken Liu’s latest book sat on my shelf for months because the damn thing was so unwieldy that its difficult to read comfortably in bed, and takes up too much space to stow in my bag to work.

Agree. Undiscovered Country is my personal No. 1.

He was deGromulent. And he hit the homer with David Wright’s bat!

Yes, I’m sure he’s failed multiple blood patches, and probably had an attempt to patch the leak. I disagree that a shunt would worsen his symptoms, after all, fluid diversion is often used to to keep the fluid away from the area of the leak to allow it to heal properly. Shunts are often used as last ditch attempts to…

So I’m pretty sure Steve Kerr has been suffering from a non-healing cerebrospinal fluid leak that was a complication from his spine surgery. Its not common, but they do happen from time to time during spine surgery. Typically, a stitch or two and lying flat for 24-48 hours does the trick. When it becomes a chronic…

Ah yes, the Vice President of Football Operations of the Cleveland franchise of the Lingerie Football League. Clearly the successful older brother.
