Sadly, the Starbucks employee had no valid claim for wrongful termination. Employers can fire employees for pretty much any reason without violating federal law (state laws vary of course). There are exceptions - can’t be fired based on race or gender - but they can fire you because they don’t think you’re chipper…

Growing up, I would only see my dad and uncles during family reunions every summer. They drank like fish and were a total blast. I was convinced that their entire lives were a non-stop party. In reality, they were on vacation and lived responsible lives the rest of the year. I wish one of them had told me, “we don’t…

When they tell me the plate is hot, it’s like I just HAVE to touch it. I’m probably not sane though.

All you hear from them about that is that it’s a war on police, and it’s Obama’s fault.

You guys should probably build a wall to keep us out.

Reasonable measures - limits on magazines (something less than the 30 rounds or so per clip the Newtown shooter had), better use of background checks. Perhaps require a full background check and completion of a gun safety course before even allowing someone to own a gun. Stiffer penalties for violating the gun laws.…

Nobody should get charged with manslaughter for this. She was most likely negligent, yes, but did not commit a criminal act. She was driving below the fucking speed limit for Christ’s sake. If we put every bad driver behind bars, our already much too high prison population would increase by a factor of about 1000000.…

Yeah, who really gives a shit about this Ashley Madison crap? Just because someone went on it - first of all, it’s not our business, and second, it doesn’t even mean they actually carried through with meeting someone and cheating. They might be curious, they might sign up in a moment of stupidity and then regret it.…

He gets something like 25% of the revenue for each of his shoes sold - maybe more. And they still sell like crazy.

Wow, you used the word “divested.” You are a writer.

Yeah, but she has the gall to make a cookbook, with recipes that are “healthy” and “easy.” So fuck her, because....well, because we are on the Internet and we hate everything.

I saw conservatives arguing about it with each other. Some were saying “left wing media is more concerned about this lion than unborn children” and others were saying “yeah, this has nothing to do with unborn children and yes, it is terrible.”

Please tell me that at some point he groaned, “I’m too old for this shit?”

The thing that is always just a LITTLE depressing to me is when I buy alcohol at the grocery store and they scan it through, and the little beep goes off on their register, and they completely ignore it, knowing I am WAY WAY WAY over 21.

I totally agree. It amazes me how most people don’t seem to appreciate or recognize just how fucking badass he is. If I’m alive in 40 years I’ll be telling my grandchildren about what it was like when he was president, and they will be dumbfounded when I tell them that a lot of people absolutely hated him, and that…

That was actually the third Bases Loaded. I remember it being disappointing. There was something strange about it. Bases Loaded and Bases Loaded 2 were so frigging awesome. I actually kept stats of my Bases Loaded 2 team. Baseball Stars was great also, and Tecmo Baseball was a riot.

He’ll never get the nomination. He can do damage to the Republicans though. So really, we should all just enjoy the shitshow.

I am proud to say my white mom went from the far right to the far left as she aged. I’m sure this is not the norm, however.

Really don’t get how people seem to think Deadspin could land Olbermann or Simmons. It’d be like Chris Rock or Norm MacDonald becoming writers for Cracked.

Toy Story is great. Toy Story 2 was overrated. Wall-E is so boring I’m not even sure I made it to the end. Cars is not as bad as everybody says but I will agree about Cars 2. Finding Nemo is annoying.
