Either that, or there is a new cheekbones-based event that the Canadians are ready to dominate.

1. Too many clothes on Lochte. 2. I would have sex with every member of the Swedish team and I don’t even like girls. 3. I need the name of the Canadian in the middle.

How I read that headline: Dick Print King, the game, is selling men’s briefs now.

I read this in a few different places but refused to believe it was not a prank until the NYT confirmed it with Cruz campaign operatives. It’s just such a comically bad idea. Like, what drugs are these people on?

You had my vote at Big Pasta.

It was the right size and she liked the colors.

Educate me.

Well, I’m impressed. My exercise comes in the form of living in a walk up apartment and not owning a car. I discovered recently that I can no longer do a single push up, because apparently the only thing maintaining my arm strength before was driving a car with no power steering.

because I go to around 4-5 classes per week, usually.

I’m sorry, I’ll make it more explicit this time: you think your argument is some super-gotcha because you’re a moronic fanboy with limited cultural understanding and weak reasoning skills. You’re placing more weight on your intimate knowledge* of a fucking comic book that by your own description has “racist tropes” as…

I have no doubt that Hollywood regularly operates under racist casting traditions, and that they’ve always claimed/believed that they were simply responding to the market. I think this has actually gotten worse as the focus has gone more international because before they’d blame shit on flyover country, but plenty of…

I’m still trying to figure out this person’s complaint on twitter, published in The Hollywood Reporter:

I’m still not convinced that is not a picture of a wax figure.

I believe the concern is that if the character is Tibetan then the Chinese government will not allow the movie to be distributed in China at all. It’s not a free market, they have a limited number of slots for non-domestic films and they have to be approved by censors. So they’re not worried about how the Chinese…

I don’t care. I just thought MistressBabylon’s attempt at a defense was funny and ill-conceived. Guys, instead of focusing on how gross the sex would be imagine the relationship is entirely mercenary instead!

Does it make more sense if I tell you he’s at the same institution that employs the author of the Torture Memos?

Pretty sure the “yucky” responses are people picking up on the fact that, yes, there is a strong sexual connection between two people who are 50 years apart. I don’t think “maybe it’s a sexless marriage!” argument is quite the defense you imagine it to be.

Good comment overall, but let’s not go overboard:

I bought a copy of Finnegan’s Wake when I was 18. It sat on the shelf in my dorm for over a year until one night, approximately two hours into an acid trip, I decided to try reading it. I made it two pages before deciding that I would be saving this book should I ever be hospitalized, in traction, for months on end.…
