Love Christina but that was painfully unfunny.

Ive met quite a few Indians who live on reservations and love the Redskins.

You'd have to ask a Civil War Buff.

If you read the linked article, you would have noted the phenomenon is not exclusive to drunk drivers and the study isn't meant as a validation of driving drunk. The point really isn't that difficult to miss.

While you may pooh-pooh the belief with hyperbole, studies have shown that intoxicated individuals are more likely to survive injuries than those with no alcohol in their systems. The physiological response of a body to injury (be it vehicular, trip-and-fall, etc.) changes when alcohol is present in the system,

Nice.

Totally going to check this out tonight, thanks for the lead!

I saw it and while I don't think it stooped to MacFarlane-level laziness, it certainly is fair to say it was certainly in the wheelhouse of constantly drawing attention to how clever it wanted you to acknowledge it was being.

It's rather astonishing how many people here have utterly missed that point.

In the market of WJFK, you are wrong; the term has been considered very offensive for a good twenty years.

Jez alone has posted about this twice in twenty hours. Given the amount of crossover in readership between Gawker and Jezebel, maybe three stories between the sites about an event Amy Adams didn't even publicize or seek attention for is extreme?

That's a great (unnerving) catch; hopefully it will get added to the post.
