I've been waiting for the rebel flag brigade to come in and remind everyone how much better off American women (and you-know-who) were before they had all those pesky rights where they had to live their own lives and make (gasp) decisions instead of their husbands running their lives for them.

A few of them have unironically stated that black people were better off during slavery.
 
Imagine being the fiancé. You pay for a cruise, your girl cheats on you with a cutpurse, the ship sinks and she kills her lover and then whines about his death forever, and the whole world despises you.

You forgot that he also paid for her mother to go on the cruise

I should have clarified my perspective as someone who as a kid once planned to be a sports journalist and was raised on Around the Horn. I was largely introduced to journalism through sports journalism and I didn't necessarily have a *bad* view of sports journalists, but I definitely saw as more of an art than a science.

Basically, sports journalism was the first mode through which sports audiences could really argue - as pedantically as can be imagined - points about sports: the extra point is worthless, the DH should be abolished, John Elway is overrated, running back production is a product of offensive lines, and an endless sea of even less scientific assertions (i.e. my team/player is best, our team/player sucks, etc.). It's a point of contact to journalism where the real currency is opinion, not investigative facts. Probably 95% of sports journalists did/do no original reporting since leagues and teams bottleneck that through specific sources.

So if that's your point of contact with journalism - a glorified "here's my arbitrary rant" profession - it makes sense that you form incorrect assumptions about the broader profession outside of sports.

Trotsky its probably because sports journalism is really just a joke in general. After all it’s only sports. BUT when the story is big enough (like steroids in baseball coverup) (Or college kids being raped) the story is so big it just becomes actual journalism. Has to be something bigger with more meat to it than, Aaron Judges sore neck or some coach being traded.

Bill Paxton - "You survived the sinking of the Titanic? Tell us about it.

Imagine foreigners invading your country, destabilizing your government, destroying your property, killing your friends and family, and then a bunch of movies get made about how sad it made them.

I think most kids (unfortunately not all of them, obviously) in the Western world probably have, by and large, positive memories of their childhood.

But do you think they'd want to be a kid again?

They had their prenup altered the day after he won the election.
 
I know I shouldn't as his son will be rich as fuck but does anyone else feel bad for Baron Trump in a way? He seems like a pretty quiet and chill kid but will likely have plenty of people rip on him in social circles cause of who his dad is.

Granted, he could probably buy the city blocks those people live on and oust them but still.

Its probably similar to a phone contract where he trades in for a new model and higher contract fees.

Those poor, poor mass murderers. They have bad dreams because they murdered people. I know it's an oversimplification but for real though.
