I had no clue this was a rule, but now it makes more sense why nobody gets to take first base when I nail them with a brushback pitch in my slow pitch softball league.

Yugofuckyourself for that joke.

I laughed. Take your star.

Can confirm.

“Super Extreme DUI” is only one level short of a Double Secret DUI.

If you add one crowd fight to Diaz, does that make him Nate Once now? How high can he go? Nate Quince? Nate Veinte?

It isn’t a controversy! Pluto isn’t a planet, if the astronomers say so, we should probably go along with, you know, the rocket scientists...

Shit, this is Deadspin, not io9. Yeah, this is a messed up chant.

Dear Jesus...

Take your star and go to hell.

I’m sure they could all point to Iranistan or Iraqistan. Those are two of those shithole countries, right?

So this is the Charge of the Light (on fire) Brigade?

Worst pain I’ve ever had was a leg cramp. I was in the ocean, the lifeguard came running in to save me because based on the way I was trying to drag myself out of the water, they thought I’d been stung by a jellyfish or bitten by a shark...

Not really a funny idea, but there is a law firm Morgan, Lewis, and Bockius... and when the internet first became a big thing, they owned the rights to MLB.com, and the league had to negotiate to get the domain from them. I always found that amusing.

As a fellow local... is it the Red Line? Is it the weekend? Fuck you bus shuttles between stations... I’m getting an Uber.

The on campus pub in college kept a rolodex of drinks invented by students, one of which was the Swamp Shot (affectionately named after our rugby field, The Swamp, which was an actual swamp...).
