So who’s more ignorant? The person who puts on makeup to look darker, or the moron who calls Lithuania Russia?

“I would never do anything to disrespect this game... except for what I actually did do.”

I never liked golf but this is very far from being true. Yeah, you have the exclusive country club crowd, but these are people for whom golf is a pretext to make business deals or gossip about colleagues. The working class guys that go to the driving range after work and play on weekends at public courses outnumber…

Hell, it says “Software Engineer” on my business card and I’m the first to say that what I do is miles away from real engineering. 

That’s great as long as the authorities play along. But, spoiler, it’s not up to you - they’re the ones who decide if you have criminal intent. And they will make use of any evidence they can get their hands on, no matter how dubious.

Yes? The term grand prix predates F1 by over a century.

It’s standard practice with a lot of computer hardware. It’s cheaper for Intel to sell you a 3.6GHz i7 that’s limited by firmware to running at 3.2 GHz than it is to manufacture separate 3.2GHz chips, so they do that.

Gudalajara. Smaller, more intimate crowd, even if the undercard matches were probably somewhat lower quality. Headline match was easily the most spectacular I’ve ever seen, though. No play by play announcing, which is fine because it’s unnecessary and you wouldn’t hear them over all the chanting and shouting anyway.

I feel dumb. I was all for Disney buying Lucasfilm because hey, they’d been good stewards of treasured childhood films for over half a century,* so surely whatever they do with Star Wars will have that same respect for the originals that so many of us fell in love with... I have since eaten those words many, many…

It’s pretty much taken as gospel these days in psychology that, absent a lot of training and practice at reprogramming our brains, we almost literally turn into our parents when we’re stressed out, especially when dealing with our own children. Learning new strategies and techniques for these situations is the first…

His knee is fine. This is just to trick the Nets into thinking he might be out for the series, only to be surprised when he plays and goes on an absolute rampage. All part of The Process.

Last week I was in Mexico so of course I took in a Lucha Libre show instead of WM. Comparing everything I’ve heard to what I actually did get to experience, I’m confident I made the right decision... even if I did get called a puto more times than I can count.

Oh, please. The Kings at least play in the right state, not to mention the right city.

I don’t know about lawyers, but physicians’ malpractice insurance, generally speaking, excludes willful acts, although willfulness tends to be more subjective in medical cases (in other words a doctor might be found to have acted improperly, but without strong evidence of intent, his or her insurance would still pay…

It’s still quite popular as far as regular TV shows go. I’m guessing Disney figures there’s still a hard core of fans whom they can soak for streaming cash regardless of quality.

It’s god awful financial advice unless you think that younger players are somehow going to be valued and paid less by the market than they are today.

Now that he’s not at RM anymore, it’s okay to like him.

I don’t understand why you’d come up with a system to reward teams for not being places that people want to stay in the first place.

what they’re really doing is killing them with a thousand smash cuts.

Fallon and Leno know no other kind.
