Damn, to the Mavs that must’ve felt like a punch to one of their four little stomachs.

Alternate take: I work for a giant ad firm here in NYC. We have beds similar to those pictured above for people who want to decompress for an hour here and there or if they happen to work on a pitch that causes them to have to be here at night/wait on the other side of the world to hop on calls, they can relax in the…

Obama ordered a burger with Dijon once so they’re both bad if you think about it.

You know what sucks? Besides the obvious. That even if trump gets kicked out of office and publicly ruined, all this shit has been put out there and exposed for the world to see. If the world was a neighborhood, we’re the family whose dad went outside jerked himself off and then took a huge dump on his next door…

That is not a rational assumption.

I’m betting that the standards are based primarily on base salaries. Performance related bonuses and raises are likely allowed, but I’m betting if you get audited and can’t justify those decisions adequately you’ll get fined.

Yep, diverse crops systems will indeed reduce disease spread. To a point. But you do have to balance that against a greater area required for cultivation, which means less area for natural species assemblages to inhabit. I have nothing against shade growing, I just don’t think it is a complete solution, and that…

Hey: geneticist and soon-to-be-author of a new paper on Cacao diseases. It’s true that cacao is restricted to the tropics, but the main issue with it at this point is the proliferation of fungal diseases. Shade or not, the pathogens can wreak havoc on cacao production at all stages of life. At the moment, most of the…

The refs having an impossible job, and the NBA needing a better system are both points I will agree to. Adding two judges to the crew would improve it, in allowing two judges with the positions of “corner” and “side” to focus entirely on the out-of-bounds lines.

Alright, I’ll put myself in the situation.

I moved on the Justice Department like a bitch. But I couldn’t get there. It had all those checks and balances. Then all of a sudden I see lady justice, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.

“I have absolute right to do what I want to do with the Justice Department.”

Because pandering to stupid religious people is always a win for any politician.

The stupidity behind the belief that “Happy Holidays” was some PC liberal creation to undermine Christmas is staggering, even by right wing nut job standards.

That the Warriors are missing a two-time MVP while the Cavs are missing a super fun 5'8" guy coming off a hip injury who’s never played with his new team?

this download link worked for me:

I see your point, but that’s not actually what the word “holiday” means. I am not Jewish, but I still think of Hanukkah as a holiday, because it is, in fact, a holiday. It may not be a holiday I personally celebrate, but it’s for sure a holiday!

I’m actually impressed at how well the servers held up in the first 24 hours of “going live” / 1.0. The game drew 2.8m people simultaneously at one point, more than the next 10 games on Steam combined (including CS:GO and Dota 2). The fact that the servers were merely laggy and inconsistent for a while is a victory…

Not even. That term has been around at least since Goldeneye.
