I have done exactly what these two men were doing. Sitting in a Starbucks, waiting on a friend. I didn’t buy anything because I wasn’t hungry/ thirsty and no one said shit to me as a white person. I never gave it a second thought, either and that is another part of implicit bias and white privilege. It’s is very…

Every coffee shop I’ve been to has people sitting doing nothing except using the wi-fi and sitting on their laptops. Some buy one cup, some just get water. If you want to sit in a Starbucks and listen to their shitty music play then more power to you.

Wow, this team’s motto truly should be “Nah, maybe we should just pass instead!”

In DC lounge, hookahs smoke you!

“More like Trystin’ Thompson right guys?”

Now that’s some offensive rebounding!

They probably liked the fact that RG3's knee isn’t even capable of bending.
