Counterpoint: texting in movies is not that bad, shut up and watch the movie.

They are fascinating as hell, all with strange, complex histories to explain how they still exist. Total leftovers from feudalism.

I appreciate what you’re trying to get at (and agree empire building is bad!), but Monaco is (and has been for generations) a sanctuary for those who built their fortunes off of empire building and in other ventures in countries with actual tax rates. The vast majority of Monaco’s wealth is built on infrastructure…

...if you think you’re going to get a, “No, we totally need to be bombing all the motherfuckers” argument here...you won’t. ;)

Who let Captain America into that social justice video?

It’s almost as if human beings can have complex feelings about a person and issue.

1) Yes, Hoover was bad? Everyone knows this? The FBI has done some awful shit? Duh?

Because these guys are fucking champions and they get up in the morning to play the greatest players alive. Even on their bad days, playing each other quickens the blood.

Oh so you answered yourself and I didn’t see it. Cool. Go me.

Not that Kyrgios has a bad forehand, but...Jack Sock’s forehand, plus the mentioned comfort Sock has there.

Grassley sucks the life out of every room or conversation he enters. He is awful.

Wasn’t it Gio who Evan Gattis ripped a shoulder-high HR off of a few seasons ago? He must get tired of that happening.
