The owner is gambling that Trump wins the election and pardons himself. Then the fuhrer will owe his friend a favor for the help.

Everyone knows pro wrestling is all staged performances but I've never heard that said of boxing. As far as I know those are real.

I was surprised to see this wasn't an Onion headline.

It's important to note that DC have denied that Willingham can do this, so the first person who tries to take advantage is going to get sued. That alone is probably enough to scare off most people, regardless of who is technically in the right. We'll see how this goes.

To me, a perfect score doesn't (or shouldn't) mean a game is literally perfect. It means "I recommend this game without reservation. Everyone with the slightest interest in the genre should play it."

US conservatives lost the war against homosexuality and so they needed to move on to a new target that didn't have as much mainstream acceptance (yet).

On social media, many people have responded to claims that people with disabilities need plastic straws by asking what people did before plastic straws were invented. "They aspirated liquid in their lungs, developed pneumonia and died," says Shaun Bickley, co-chair of the Seattle Commission for People with DisAbilities, a volunteer organization that's supposed to advise the city council or agencies on disabilities issues.

Also, blowing up the dark ones is canonically a bad idea. It's a representation of humanity’s tendency to react with irrational fear and violence against things we don't understand. If it seems foolish to you, congrats, you understand the point of the story.
