It didn’t exist, at least not a part of any chatroom I was in. I just got back from a run and bam, there was a teen trying to beat up Samer. Read more

To be fair, he’s also doing something nice for the Clippers. Read more

Yep, sorry friend. You’re also not allowed to go play in the McDonald’s PlayPlace even if your mother always refused to take you when you were little. Read more

I don’t know that “brain surgeon” is quite the synonym for “intelligent” that you think it is. Read more

I have no idea if this is serious or not. Read more

Congratulations! In a comment section full of dumb comments, this one is the dumbest! Read more

Here’s that case. Read more

I could definitely take Malala. Read more

I don’t think they will either. His homophobia never really became a “thing,” whereas his awesome defense and good career certainly was. And that’s okay! Hopefully people don’t remember it because it means Hunter has stopped saying awful shit. Read more

Dammit, I looked down that list and even CTRL+F’d “QB” and still fucked that up. Thanks. Read more

I am a very good flag football cornerback. Read more

As a Regular Joe you’re still free to put a video of your dog up on YouTube, but if you want to earn revenue from it you have to agree to YouTube Red’s terms. The logic here, via Gizmodo: Read more

His bat is too good, so he has to be in the lineup somewhere. Montero is signed for another two years and $28 million, so I find it hard to believe he’ll be displaced.
