While honesty is usually the best policy, I don’t think I’d arbitrarily subject the most important player on my team to public ridicule during the most important series of his career.

In that case, you’ll never see those young guys play. Thibs would rather drag out half a corpse than give a young guy a chance.

Have to admit, when they said they had an ex-SEAL in the wings and that ex-SEAL was the author of a book on the subject of manhood, I pictured something vastly different than what was pulled into frame as the segment got rolling. I half-expected him to say “We named the DOG ‘Indiana’!”

“More information” is kind of the basis of fandom; I don’t know exactly how to articulate it, but sometimes the confirmed existence of a canonical answer to the question “why?” outweighs the inevitable disappointment of what that answer actually is.

The only thing I can say is, it must be a common compulsion, because:…

It’s feminist because there’s bullets and explosions but the male lead and female lead never actually have sex.

I may be off the mark, but I didn’t get the impression that I was getting hit in the face with feminism; if anything, it felt kind of like a Spaghetti Western where Angel Eyes happened to pee sitting down.

Oh wow, that’s especially evil. Who do these people think they are serving?

I had just started a job as the IT director for a small manufacturing company and a lot of the administrative staff were in temporary offices while the main building underwent remodeling. This put me a foot behind the desks of the CFO and comptroller, who were interviewing candidates for an accounting clerk position.

I find it funny that nearly *every* news outlet which reported on (deflategate, whatever) went out of their way to force ball puns and innuendo into their coverage, and then Simmons gets canned for having a WWW vocabulary.

Was able to resolve, peek into yourteamcheats.com and surprise, it is under a heavy load... of shitty content.

Ever heard of the concept “a rising tide lifts all ships”? Just because the guy across the street isn’t in a union, doesn’t mean his wages and compensation aren’t made de facto by union representation somewhere in his industry.

GM’s top 7 executives were compensated 51,000,000.00 in 2014, or roughly what it would cost…

You know what some people put in their SUVs? This is going to sound like complete lunacy, but I once saw a full-grown woman put a tiny human being in her SUV, then drive off like it was nothing. And sure as shit, she drove slowly around obstacles. I was like, come ON lady - Laura Ingalls made it across rougher terrain…

Club owners, enough said.

I don’t know how many times I’ll have to watch this movie before I won’t find it hilarious when Sgt. Angel stumbles over (among others) the corpse of the Living Statue... It isn’t just that he’s there among numerous bodies in varying states of decay, but that he still has his eyes open and hands up.

Then, stepping…

Isn’t anyone who is piloting a gyro-copter automatically a gyro-captain?

I haven’t trolled in-a-game before or since, but one of the reasons I miss City of Heroes so much is the epic griefing. It really was a great platform to bring together people that should never be brought together.

It’s so.... meta.

Do you remember when all the godless heathens tore down Kurt Warner when they found out he was a born-again Christian?

I have a mildly notable talent for timely snark - sometimes in the form of burns - but I only ever remember the ones I felt bad for saying.

I spent my entire Marine Corps ‘career’ stationed at MCLB Barstow, which is a desolate shithole even by USMC standards. We had a Sgt. Major who had been around forever, and took…

I’ve only ever punched one person out of anger (actually two persons with one swing) and it was because the guy just kept droning on and on about Lou Holtz. Apparently, drunk me can only take about two hours of Holtz-centric conversation before I wig out.
