    2013 NFL Offseason and Draft

    Have you watched NFL AM? I would estimate that about 35% of the discussion is about either clothes or dancing.

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    While I agree completely with those saying that the Mother Jones graphs are bullshit, the thing you should really take away from those graphs is that terrorism of any kind is hardly a major problem in the US and just like with mass shootings, the idea that we need to buttfuck the bill of rights...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It always annoys me when people use the fact that most Americans couldn't label a map of Europe as some sort of proof that Americans are stupid. Unless you're going there, the location of Romania on a map is almost completely useless information. On top of that, I doubt that many Europeans...

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    Oh I wanted to see how much pig brain Brenda ate too. Maybe she just took the one bite that they showed but she looked so damn hungry I halfway thought she was going to just eat it all. I think I would have in her position.

    Smartphones

    Every time I see an iPhone in an otterbox I think Steve Jobs must be rolling over in his grave. All the time spent on that hardware design and people just cover it in neon rubber.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    I didn't really get why Malcolm stopped looking for the idol. Sure there's a chance Andrea would have found it before he did but there's no way that people are going to believe that he found it when she obviously caught him looking for it and he stopped looking. I also liked Malcolm's game...

    Like violence statistics, looking at the average in the US skews the data because we have certain communities that are horrific and that brings down the average. We generally rank behind western Europe and the more developed parts of Asia but most of those countries don't have the level of...

    Taking the pubes down to bare skin looks stupid on guys that are hairy. If I shaved my pubes I would have a weird bald spot surrounded by my stomach and leg hair. No fucking way I'm going to shave everything. Not having to shave your entire body is the primary upside to being a straight male.

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    People should listen to that This American Life episode. I had heard about inner city schools before but that really brings it home. It's hard to believe that kind of shit goes down right next door to what we think of as a normal American lifestyle. It's hard to imagine that anyone grows up...

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    It's a hard fucking problem. I don't know how to fix it, but I think it has to come from families and not from the schools. The teachers just get them too late and they don't have enough time with them. Sadly it's really damn hard to be a good parent if you never had one yourself. Welfare in...

    The average school has room for improvement for sure. The high school in my link is unusable and it's because of the kids that are in it and their home situation, not because of the system.

    Public schools in decent neighborhoods are fine. Did you listen to theThis American Life episode at Harper High School in Chicago? Any remotely responsible parent would find a way to get their kids out of that place so after that happens all you have left is kids with shitty parents which...

    Give it up guys. Everyone in America is JUST AS BAD as a suicide bomber blowing up a bunch of children. JUST AS BAD. You can't judge. Everyone is the same, or worse. JUST AS BAD.

    I didn't really take it as her enjoying the betrayal myself. I saw that smile as a kind of "what are you gonna do?" rather than "suck it bitch".

    Stephen King called it a 'B' which is about where I would put it. That != terrible. And no, Tyler Perry moviesdo not get good reviews.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I don't think Craster was necessarily helping the white walkers. He was doing what he had to to keep himself and his little incest farm alive. He appeases the white walkers, he appeases the Night's Watch, neither of them kill him, or at least that's how it used to go.

    They haven't really played up the idea that guests are protected in Westeros although I'm sure that they will before the Red Wedding. Regardless of that though, I don't think that kind of shit carries any weight north of the wall.

    It doesn't really matter what the Quran says, most of the people in these groups know next to nothing about it. I bet these dudes didn't speak 10 words of Arabic. It's like in the dark ages when the Bible was only in Latin and the Catholic Church had a monopoly on interpreting it. The crazy...

    Yeah, "always" because you said it was and a few people emailed some muslim dude that can post on Huffington post. You don't think any Christian leader has ever been asked about abortion clinic bombings?

    Professional reviews of both the books and movie are overwhelmingly positive. It's just hipsterism saying that they suck.

    So she's supposed to instantly be a great leader because she got Drogo to let her be on top while they fucked? She made him fall in love with her (and fell in love with him at the same time) and maybe influenced some of his decisions but that doesn't mean she knows how to rule over people or...

    I agree. Never really understood the angst over Dany's storyline other than people just wanting her to go right to Westeros and cause the premature end of the series. It seems to me that Dany needs experience and the dragons need time to grow and liberating the slave cities is an excellent way...

    Just said on CNN that white hat told the FBI that no foreign groups were involved in the bombing and that they were self-radicalized and did the bombing to "protect Islam". How that bombing accomplished that I have no fucking clue.

    "Drakkaris" is also the word she says when she wants them to burninate something, so that could be confusing as well.

    They might if they read one of the many websites that post pictures saying "They cast the part of Ramsey Bolton! Here's a picture of the actor." There's a shitload of GoT discussion on the internet and different people have different ideas about what constitutes a spoiler.

    Possibly, unless somebody grabbed them. The crazy thing about those mass shootings is that if at any point any 3 people decided to rush the shooter it would be over but everyone always runs away which is a best case scenario for the shooter. Also shooting means zero chance of escaping alive...

    They come back just as sharp as they are brand new too. I have never used anything as sharp as a Shun fresh from sharpening. I actually samurai chopped a copy of the Economist magazine in half once and it sliced all the way through it, no tearing. Probably not a recommended use for a nice...

    Bolton mentions that his bastard is going to Winterfell a couple times on the show so I don't think it's that hard to make that guess. As far as Jozu goes, I don't think most people would remember things like Bolton's sigil or even recognize what it is but it's possible that he just reads...
