Not disagreeing. But as a Seahawks fan, you’d understand this: we’re born into most of our teams and they bring us more pain than joy (only one winner per year). So when selecting a team outside your regional/national leagues, why not pick a team that’s more likely to bring joy (even just aesthetically) than pain?…

Would you really judge a European who got into basketball in the 90's being a Bull’s fan? When there’s no regional connection, you’re free to pick to the team that brings you the most joy, either through style or results. Barca happens to deliver on both. I’m an unapologetic American Barca fan because watching Messi…

First read Game of Thrones about 8 years ago after reading a New Yorker piece about how divided his fanbase was over his slow output. I figured, if people are clamoring this rabidly for new pages, this guy must be good. Only now, 8 years later and thousands of pages in, do I realize that article wasn’t a promotion…

Based on the headline, I clicked expecting to find a thoughtful analysis of how, in the era of fake news, our nation’s most heralded daily was hamstrung - spending its energy on proving its relevance and veracity rather than on the more important goals of the fourth estate like uncovering the truth and bringing…

As a 43 year old man who sadly looks his age (grey hair, thinning hair, utter ab-lessness, a face even my mother has stopped loving), this article seems a little mean spirited. Lorde is beautiful and writes/sings catchy pop tunes that are alternatively fun and moving to listen to. Is that enough?

I won’t quibble on price and service. But Taxi routes are way better than gps routes. A taxi driver typically knows which way is north. Uber and Lyft drivers spend so much time looking at their damn phones, I’m surprised we’re not all dead.

She’s the best. Smart, weird, deep, light - she’s the best.

hot take: Mustache Twirling Villain is Ursula K. Le Guin’s Kinja name.

Has anybody sourced this move? I assume it’s from a book about how to assert your will in negotiations or how to be perceived as a strong leader or some such self-help, business habits hokum. Check the man’s library...it might be the only proof we have that he can read.

Mother Teresa was a charlatan too. The analogy is quite apt.

Book report by the kid who didn’t read the book

I’ve clearly been going to wrong parties

Preach brother (sister?). I was once upon a time a devoted college sports fan. But the entire system is so repulsive I can’t stomach it anymore. And while revenue sports are obviously the worst offenders, I dated two women who were D1 athletes and both told stories of coaches who routinely compromised their educations…

This is the most insightful joke about the current culture of Silicon Valley.
This is perhaps the least insightful comment in this comment section.
This is me quietly backing out of the room.
This is me outside the comment section waving at you.
This is you giving me a well deserved finger.
This is me hanging my head and…

There’s plenty of fire with Trump, it’s just hard to see through the storm clouds of acrid, billowing, sulphurous, black smoke.
1. Boasts about sexual assault
2. Repeated non-payment to contractors
3. When banks stopped lending him money, Russian oligarchs picked up the slack
4. Racist & discriminatory housing policies…

 If New Coke sucks, you don’t keep buying Coke.
I see no reason to give my money to rich kids if the rich kid isn’t giving me something I want in return. Not my job to financially support rich kids.
I’m perfectly happy donning my lovable laundry and staying home.

Let’s hope Trump only has warning track power.

And when you’re a valiant knight of truth on the Internets and your righteousness shines with the light of a million stars, may all who deign give voice to their takes tremble and shudder at the glory that is thine kinja. Godspeed GOR, may you crush your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of…
