I know a lot of white guys who only date Asian women, a lot of black women who only date white guys, a lot of Jewish dudes who only date black women, etc. You can’t force someone to be attracted to people of their own ethnic/racial background. It’s actually racist to insist that people have an obligation to date

Before Mrs. Jays was kind enough to introduce herself one evening, I had a pretty long term relationship with just a dynamite person, who happened to be short 5’2”-5’3”, curvy (a less severe version of a body owned and regularly displayed by a certain woman of Armenian extraction), and, to hear her tell it, utterly

Flat out awesome answer.

I would. I have. Find me a reason to flip in the air, on skis or a snowboard, 50 feet in the air. It’s stupid. Race car driving? Dumb as shit...and if you have kids, doubly so. Nothing is gained from someone freehanding it up a rock; society doesn’t get anything out of it and the risk/reward equation is horribly out

DaVinci and a host of others found that wing suits don’t enable men to fly. This guy wasn’t treading any new ground. We figured out how to fly without dying.

You aren’t a victim if your death arises from a disregard for common sense safety measures. This dope died doing something profoundly dangerous, something valueless. The idea that we should laud “adrenaline junkies” who get off on risking their lives is ridiculous. The only person that can be blamed for Potter’s death

You are unquestionably the first person to ever compare Carl Hiassen and Madonna favorably to each other. Madonna’s years were the 80’s; Big years to be sure, but after that she was just a retread. Hiassen has been jerking off over Florida for 30 years.

Not so true, the Indian thing, if you’re in the UK . Pict, perhaps , or Celt

Age of consent is 16 in 31 states

I’m sure you’ve tried to do too much at once and half-assed something. That probably didn’t qualify you as an asshole or a hack.

When you are issued your uniform, it doesn't include a halo. Service members are just as capable (and, if you track sexual assault statistics, perhaps even more) as the average Joe to be an asshole.

Well, as I said (I’m also a former fan), he stopped evolving as a writer because writing ceased to be his sole focus and primary vehicle. Were he to be forced into a situation where writing was again his only outlet, I have no doubt that he produce better, more thought provoking pieces.

Your last sentence sort of presumes that women who have affairs lack agency, that they don’t make affirmative decisions to participate. Married people who want to have affairs can’t just decide to have an affair. Someone who (usually) is aware of the marriage says,”Fuck it, I’m in.”

Look at the lineup he assembled for Grantland. Those are some talented folks. I think it’s pretty clear that he can recruit, motivate and retain talent. There’s also the 30 for 30 series and his podcasts

Jet. All the shoes.

Fat and happy aren’t contradictory states. One can be both. There are also happy smokers, happy heavy drinkers, happy people who engage in all sorts of healthy behaviors .

The most difficult thing in the world for some is neutral self-reflection. It’s hard to look at oneself and not give in to employing the same stereotypes that others so readily apply to you.

Bullshit. PBR is the nation’s most overrated beer.

Got any loser friends with DUI’s? Were those offenses their parents’ fault?

I’m torn, in a way. I agree with some of her sentiments, think some are a bit hyperbolic. What I absolutely believe is that, besides say, overt Sharia-observant Muslims, there aren’t any gender/ethnic groups where such vitriolic stereotyping on a public platform by authority figures is condoned.
