Do people not know how to buy shit at the store anymore? Has Amazon robbed us of our ability to get up and go shopping? Just buy your goddamn diapers at the store like a normal person if your automated mail-order diaper subscription isn’t working out. Christ. My kid is about to turn two and we have never felt the need

I absolutely would not buy a PT Cruiser at any price. It’s one of the least appealing cars ever made.

I look at the Marketplace every year during open enrollment to see if there’s anything more affordable than my employer-provided plan, but there never is. Pretty frustrating that paying over $11,000 a year (nearly 20% of our combined household income) in premiums alone is the absolute best option available to us,

I like 9 and 3 because it makes me feel like a big-shot racing driver when I’m taking my kid to day care at 40 MPH.

Love this band, love this song. “Dose Your Dreams” AOTY 2018 without a doubt.

Someone threw a beer can onto the field at the KC/Portland match later that evening, too. These people need to knock that shit off yesterday. It’s utterly classless and makes the whole fanbase look bad.

Truly a wild coincidence that the strongest economic period in our history coincided with that time we didn’t have a president.

This. This is the shit I like.

[...] these were really great, great, heroes that fought so hard, that the plane didn’t do damage to the White House, or the capital, or wherever it was headed [...] 

So, you’re “socially progressive” but opposed to any material steps towards social progress. Got it.

April 2007. I’m 18 years old and a few weeks away from graduating from high school. The Rodriguez/Tarantino double feature “Grindhouse” has just hit theaters, and my friends and I, under the mistaken impression that we have excellent taste in film, are there on opening night. For some reason, I was so taken with

When I used that phrase in the early 80’s, I had no idea that in this country that phrase had a horribly different meaning and connotation, as it was commonplace in Ireland.

Chisholm said that Holland and Ogawa are friends, and that Holland has been to Japan and “speaks a little bit of the language.” “If you know Haro, these guys are friends in the clubhouse,” Chisholm said. “They both, you know, poke fun at one another. But, by no means at all is he trying to get across that he’s

I am all about this. David Sylvian is such an under-appreciated artist; he’s one of those guys, like Scott Walker or Mark Hollis, who found success in pop music as a young man but consciously rejected it as he got older in favor of more idiosyncratic, avant-garde work. “Ghosts” is one of the very best tracks Japan

Walter White doing a piss-poor job of keeping his profile low.

Tanabe was discussing Dillon’s Dead-Heat Breakers, which is a game that came out from Nintendo in May on a major Nintendo platform, the 3DS, and, really, you’d think that would be enough to get a game noticed.

- All of them

Where’d you get this GIF of me playing FIFA?

I knew Vile Rat. He was an unabashed racist who constantly posted about how gross and weird Libyans were.

My wife used to manage a Starbucks. On one occasion, she had to watch a video in which Schultz (“Howie,” as he called himself) told the tragic tale of how little money the people who harvest Starbucks’ coffee beans are paid. The question of why his company did not pay its suppliers more to address this issue was not
