A contact high, even a psychedelic one, would be the last thing I’d worry about “catching” from touching people at a Dead show.

The 7’6”ers?

It’s more of a “why bother reviewing a film you know you’re going to hate because you just don’t like the person who created it,” but yeah, you’re spot-on.

Wow call your PARENTS because those are bargain BASEMENT prices.

I can only speak as a Iowa-raised, upper-middle-class white guy who has never experienced real racism directed at me my entire life. I have no other meaningful experience to contribute to the discussion.

Yes, I agree. I thought about commenting on so many of this season’s Gawker sites’ articles, mainly because I thought all the anlyses posted (like the one above) whether general or episode-specific missed the main point - which is that this season was always going to be a let-down compared to the last two because the…

As near as I can tell, based on the trajectory of the show, the series will end with the White Walkers conquering all of Westeros. Everyone is dead and newly arisen as a frost zombie.

...I came for the politics and the boobs... The dragons and puppies were just a bonus. Speaking of, where on earth have those direwolves been?

Am I the only one this bugged? Drogon gets his ass handed to him by a few spear-toting hooligans? In my day, you had to roll a straight-up 20 with an enchanted pole-ax to even graze one of these bastards.. spears. pshh.

Random softball league story:

Seriously I think Iggy was making fun of him by grabbing his arm and laughing after getting fouled. Lebron acts like he’s been seriously injured anytime he hits the ground. Irving got up from a fractured kneecap and immediately got on the defensive end.

Apparently it’s a Deadspin rule for the word “racist” to appear in every single comment thread.

Yeah, he was quite obviously throwing a little fit off what all the announcers conceded was a hard but completely clean foul, and it went all wrong. I’m surprised we’re just speaking on that in the greys and it’s not the big talking point here...

Rule #23: Don’t injure yourself while flopping.

Those last two steps were for show (like he was selling the call / flopping) and it didn’t turn out the way he had hoped. Looks like he just lunged towards the photogs on his 2nd or 3rd step

“Coffee as a pregame drink is popular in the NBA: Darrell Armstrong, Toni Kukoc, and Luigi Datome all enjoyed it.”

Look, Reinsdorf is terrible, as he has always been, and Gar Foreman is a crazy person who tried give Vinny Del Negro the Diamond Cutter.

I’m not saying he is or he isn’t, but if you told me that Duncan Keith is a robot sent back from the future, I wouldn’t be super surprised.

Having watched him for so many years now I was starting to take Dunc for granted until these playoffs when he reminded me why he is easily one of my favorite players in the NHL.
