Rule #1 in finding a good Asian restaurant is making sure they specialize in one cuisine. Thai & Pho? It likely means they do neither Thai nor Vietnamese correctly.

Imagine, being the manger of a fucking buffet (a Golden Corral, no less!) and having a problem with people’s bodies.

The restaurant in one of the stories that was linked to said “Any profit from the sale is stripped away by the fees they charge the restaurant, which leaves only enough to cover the cost of the food.”

Yes, it’s a stretch, and I sort of (but maybe not enough) acknowledged that by saying the racial epithet was obviously much worse. But the line could be read as Ratto playfully ribbing Ibaka because other people from his continent have fudged birth certificates (or been accused of as much) at a very high profile. And…

That begets another question, though. Putting aside that Ray may not know about the birth certificate fudging issues that Thon Maker and multiple high school athletes have been accused of (he has to know about it, Deadspin has written plenty of stories about it), when an announcer said of Jeremy Lin something along…

No on Emma Watson, yes on the other two. And Jennifer Lawrence. Mark Wahlberg is one of the worst actors I’ve ever seen, and only won (or was only nominated for??) an Oscar because he got to play himself, back when he was stabbing old Vietnamese men in the eye.

Fucking Marv Albert? Are you serious? A rapist? And someone who consistently confuses 15 footers for three pointers? “Now they’re saying he had a foot on the line!” A man who confuses Klay Thompson for Steph Curry, multiple times a game?

You can tell your bias from the line “Boogie Cousins who’s slightly more out of shape than he’s been his entire career.: Uh, dude is in the same shape currently as Robert Traylor or Oliver Miller. 

It’s a non-story because he was hip checked. It’s not noticeable on the replay they showed on broadcast, and that’s why Van Gundy and Mark Jackson were saying he was flopping or trying to draw a foul or whatever. He actually got fouled. Nobody lands like that on purpose.

Serge Ibaka shaved four years off his birth certificate even after you deduct the two goaltends that were called blocked shots.

Give me all the Doris

This article is actually really weird to me. Deadspin complains about all the coverage the Yankees and Red Sox get (so do I, FYI. I dislike both teams). So what is an article like this, if not more coverage for the Yankees? Oh, because they lost so Deadspin wants the world to know. And they have a weird fetish for…

How nobody chose whipped cream or chocolate syrup is beyond me.

If you’ve have boba that is poppable and juice-filled, you’ve had fake boba. Boba is tapioca through and through; they’re not Gushers. No popping, no juice.

Yep. The bunter is a hero in his own clubhouse. They didn’t get no-hit. That’s probably all that matters to him.

If it was a real no-hitter in the 9th, and the opposing team is only down 3, get on base any fucking way you can. The game is still winnable. Now, if it’s 9-0, then ok, I can see the argument for not bunting. But it is the defense and the pitcher’s responsibility to get the out. If they fuck that up, then that’s on…

America is right for once. Onions have the same texture pretty much no matter which way they are prepared.

Back in the day...

You can tell what type of person is by his reaction to Piers saying he got him a gift.

I don’t know. I was doing a cartwheel with my niece on Sunday and did something to my hamstring. The pain was pretty intense for about a minute or so, but started to subside pretty quickly. I feel nothing now, and I would definitely be able to run if I did things that required me to run. A slight hamstring strain can…
