Dear r/AmITheAsshole,

So, I was recently put in charge of an already successful website by this private equity firm. I covered the site in loud, obnoxious ads, drove readers away and than started firing the people who made the website successful in the first place when they wouldn’t kiss my ass. But, I mean, those…

I like, like, 2 basketball teams and no other sports. I read Deadspin DAILY, all year. I don’t want them to stick to sports, and I’m mad, and sad, and I still miss Gawker, and this sucks. 

I wrote a sci-fi book that’s coming out next March; it’s called OTAKU and it’s kind of a love-hate letter to gaming culture, but with a whole lot more thrown in. If you want to pre-order it that’d be cool, if not no worries.

Just wishing all of you the best. This situation sucks, your management sucks even worse, and I hope all the staff makes it through to the other side at a place where you’re actually appreciated.

As someone who was once part of a similar insurrection against arrogant, incompetent, and condescending management, I want to applaud all of y’all for today’s showing. I’m sure you’re simultaneously enjoying the fun of mutiny while also understanding the risk. Please also know how much it means to us here in the feebl…

Your initial reaction is the correct one on Deadspin like 99/100 times, I cannot fault you.

“The student, meanwhile was sentenced on Thursday to three years of probation and mental health treatment after pleading guilty to felony possession of a firearm in a public building and misdemeanor possession of a loaded firearm in public.”

Defensive Holding!

Same dude that faked an injury in one of the above articles, so that a teammate could get some playing time. Good dude, this guy.

I think Bosa’s attitude had less to do with old college grudges than with the well known fact he just hates the browns. 

Hey, it worked for Pompey the Great.

The thing about crowning achievements is that some societies are so starved of leadership that they’ll bestow rule with the least forethought. Defeating a backwards rabble of pirates is hardly the foundation of government.

I think “pulling off the ol’ double moochy” is what got him into trouble in the first place.

We’ve had success with catch-and-release traps like these:

Please don’t use glue traps.

That Scorpion is like Jared Goff after his helmet radio is switched off.

So it’s Captain Murphy?

If you can’t watch the video, you should be aware that this mouse is not merely immune to scorpion venom, but converts it to a painkiller!
