Yeah my main issue was that I was a spoiled little child who had spent his whole life being told how smart he was, but I was smart enough to look around and understand that I was absolutely not a genius and that really fucked me up.

Yes, well put.

Fun fact: Murray Head’s brother is Anthony Stewart Head, better known as Giles the Librarian from BTVS! (The exclamation point at the end makes it fun!)

In the mid 70s, two Soviet grandmasters named Korchnoi and Petrosian played each other in an important tourney. Korchnoi was mad jealous of the younger Petrosian, and a lot of the Soviets were pissed at Korchnoi because there were rumors he was going to defect (which he ended up doing).

ha ha yeah, they also had to make Freddie Trumper/the nameless American (depending on the version) sympathetic enough for the audience to give half a shit, which you could not really have done with the real Fischer’s antics.

Why did these ladies bring in cutouts of a bunch of losers anyway? I prefer my athletes uninjured. Sad!

“If I’m too focused on the Superbowl to think about current events, or even Deflateghazi, I sure as fuck am not gonna think about the fact some people the league used to own until they got too used up to provide entertainment to our fans getting some headaches or w/e.”

Americans are scared of cockroaches? Easy answer is don’t live in filth. I have a lady who comes in and cleans my place four times a day. She’s kind of ugly a 4 or a 5 at best but good with the cleaning. I’ve never had a cockroach problem.

I didn’t think I could love Novak harder than when he dissed Idiocracy to the Gizmodo set. But mocking Elon Musk is like writing a column at Jezebel called “Actually, Solange Knowles is a Spoiled Brat Who is Full of Shit.”

you might call them bad hombres. she should have built a wall.
