Hi, Maddy. Nobody needs a reminder that Kotaku pulls no punches. That’s why we’re all here.

Yes. How are things recalculated when you change destination mid-trip? Has to be some exploitable loophole there (which would no doubt only fuck the driver).

Other than the part where the driver “put his hands to the face” of a 300lb+ angry passenger.

They can, depending on the firing angle and wind and a bunch of other things. IIRC, MythBusters tested this and gave it all three ratings (“confirmed,” “plausible” and “busted”) because there are too many factors to achieve predictable results.

I would sympathize with Pop’s chagrin (the GIFs above aren’t even Harden’s most preposterous moments), but the Spurs have benefited from the Oscar-worthy flopping theatrics of Manu Ginobili for a long time. At one point last night, Manu was fouled while very clearly attempting a cross-court pass, yet somehow convinced…

Well, hell. Why not just skip everything once your draft pick is presumptively assured? Willis McGahee was a locked-in top-five until he jackknifed his leg in the championship. How much did that cost him? The NCAA’s (and NFL’s) philosophy of profit over prestige is about to implode, now that people have begun to…

I’m a 38-year-old alcoholic, because pot is illegal. I only started drinking when I was 21, because I was taking piss tests while serving probation (for possession of marijuana), and I wanted to take the edge off somehow while maintaining my freedom. Going cold-turkey after years of wake-and-bake was not a problem.

As someone who’s doesn’t understand or care about DotA (I don’t even know what the acronym means; my spellcheck capitalized the “A”), thank you, SmoothRide, for explaining what Van Allen couldn’t be bothered with. Even when I’m ignorant of a certain game or sport, etc., I’m still intrigued by cool shit that happens.

Alex Jones lands someplace between Art Bell and David Icke. It’s incomprehensible that an elected president of the United States would publicly congratulate any of those on a job well done, and yet that’s precisely what’s happened. I feel like I’m trapped in a never-ending acid flashback​.

So Teddy basically loses a year? That’s not so bad, considering his team isn’t good. Maybe by 2018 (or ‘19) they’ll have somehow improved, Bradford will have stunk the place up to high heaven, and a fully-healthy Bridgewater might go berserk in a contract year. And definitely not stay with the team that used every…

I had to double-take to figure out who was who.

Like your fantasy team?

It looked like he was landing on his feet. Maybe being smashed over the head with three bottles caused the trauma.

At least in Phil Jackson’s last game coaching LAL, even Bynum and Odom (who both got tossed for violent frustration-related flagrants) didn’t try whining about being blown out by 40. “We basically suck” was the (correct) mantra.

I agree, except for the part about copying the comics. The show has deviated heavily from the books, and many of its changes and original ideas haven’t been positive. If Negan hasn’t been working (I dunno, I gave up over a season ago), I’d guess it’s simply the amateurish writing that’s always plagued the series and…

The most amazing thing is that the president of America is still staging rallies.

“Mother Funders” is the likely trigger here.

I wouldn’t even bother, because kids on planes, or anyplace really, and their parents annoy me. I would watch something inoffensive or play Space Quest or something. But you could be a dick and just watch it and that’s fine too.

I think Trump was less concerned with the time his predecessor spent golfing than the colorful sort of people they allow on the course these days.
