Those dog collar reviews are exactly where I need them to be.

For me, the most sane way to divide the X-Men movies is to ask whether the movie’s theme is “confused metaphor for bigotry,” or “special effects are awesome.”

I totally agree about playing hurt (or for those of us working normal jobs, working sick). That guy on the bench is a better basketball player than all but a couple hundred of the 7 billion people on this planet. Let him play.  Let the injured guy heal. If I wanted to watch pointless suffering, I’d be a Browns fan.

Good lord, Leanne Wong looks like she just decided to become a cordless drill. 

Does anyone know the single-season record for torching a team? Obviously Bonds has outperformed Torres’s 1.763 OPS vs Baltimore a couple times.  During the 2001 death march, Bonds went 2.234 OPS vs ATL (yes, THOSE Braves, the best-pitching team in the league). But that’s just me poking around, no real research.

Tsingy.

I’m still in mourning for Truman Peyote.

Let’s go back to that photo and focus on the fact that there is a human named LAUREN BUSH LAUREN.

My heart goes out to Ballentine, who spent years devoting himself to the sport, hustling and grinding, only to end up getting noticed by the wrong dudes at the wrong time, and now he’s a Giant.

Facebook is working on its own feature, which will also tell you the name, height, and weight of the person who’s currently charging.

I could not agree more!  I’ve been in a job where the pay was great but the office culture was toxic.  It ruined a year of my life.  I couldn’t imagine reliving all that with TV cameras on me, too.

The researchers ran a simulation based on two assumptions: that the planets’ orbits were approximately circular, and that their orbits weren’t at an angle relative to one another

Pedantic answer: No, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brad_Carvey .  Honest answer: Have my star, you magnificent bastard.

This is the basketball equivalent of getting frisked for “fitting the description.”

Cats kill rodents better than anything else we’ve invented, and a law that fails to account for that is a bad law.

Do the normal laws about harassment and discrimination just not apply to the NFL?

OK, this story is sad and there’s no way around that. So let’s imagine what could’ve been. Here’s the headline I was hoping for:

Such dog.  Very cuteness.  Perhaps Tina Turner.  Wow.

Ok, but I have never committed an NFL penalty in my entire life.  Why do I have to watch this over-litigated nonsense?
