Joe Cocker is an almost ludicrious omission considering some of the crap that made the list. Devo? Amy Winehouse? FFS.

Can’t believe this one didn’t make the list:
You’re far more sophisticated than I, using an umbrella, I just wear crappy old ball caps anyways in the rain (though am planning on getting a proper hat this winter, like a fedora or similar, can’t buy cheap standard sizes as head is too big, all fat and bone, no brain). Mine gets left like that all the time so I am u…
I imagine the arm would injure Evelyn quite severely.
Entire generations of workers have internalized the idea that working yourself to the bone and ruining your health and family life are the only way to be productive and successful at your job. (That was the prevailing culture at the time, so I suppose for many people, it was difficult to avoid.) But with Elon, it’s…
To be fair, Musk’s relationship with Twitter is a lot more like Gollum with the One Ring.
I listened to the call - the really good stuff is at 48:30.
Wait, a company with a reactionary idiot CEO who also happens to be trying to be CEO for multiple other companies at the same time is struggling now that there are actual problems to resolve and competition from other companies?
Sure seems like there are a number of people who have been fortunate enough to have their decisions go their way for long enough that it’s basically impossible for them to admit that they even have the capacity for making an incorrect call. Anything that happens is the fault of someone or something else.
Doesn’t mean it’s entertaining. There is an overabundance of angry talking heads across the media landscape. He was unique in being able to deploy his in a way that helped people laugh through it.
Wish I was a kid, but his humor doesn’t land with me either anymore.
Not saying it isn’t, but I don’t find him enjoyable to watch anymore, and I’ve watched his shows religiously for years.
For those of you that love Jon Stewart but haven’t seen the show, you’d be surprised by how bad he’s gotten.
He would actually be perfect for a show like “Meet the Press”. Though I don’t know if members of Congress would be keen on the potential of getting roasted by him on any given Sunday.
I was never super interested in “The Problem” but this is a shit way for it to go out.
Still, maybe now Stewart might make the show I wanted him to make in the first place, and provide the thing the media is most sorely lacking right now - his interview skills. Stewart’s interviews were often the best part of his Daily…
Avid bicyclist here, and no bicyclist over twelve years of age should be on the sidewalks. Of course, that also means that there has to be a safe option in the roadway. One guy in a pickup truck mowing down a bicyclist will naturally push a few hundred to ride on the sidewalks, and it is understandable.
As a recreational cyclist, there’s no doubt that just being on a bike doesn’t make an asshole less of one. I get pissed when I see cyclists completely flouting traffic laws, riding in big groups and blocking traffic when single-file would let cars pass, splitting traffic, etc. because I know all it’s doing is pissing…
You cannot teach “give a shit” to people. The people who WANT to know how to interact with bicycles on the roads, either already know, or actively seek out the information. The problem is that a much higher number of people simply don’t give a shit, and forcing them to be “educated” about it is not going to result in…
It is appealing to people who enjoy cycling and exercise in general, which sounds like it certainly is not you. That’s fine, no one is gonna make you get up and work out in the morning, but it doesn’t mean other people don’t enjoy that.
Good thing the weather isn’t always like that. And have you heard of e-bikes?
