all the little QBs who enter the national football league have elite talent and poise lurking in their heart, and sometimes it takes hold of them and says, "i will not lose." eliteness is fluid and fleeting, and beautiful

There's a gas station near work I stop at sometimes and there are two guys who are always there (at different times) buying 15 lottery tickets at a time and scratching them off at the counter

Seems like a fun thing to do

She looked really familiar but didn't at the same time. It was confusing. Also she walked through the jungle in heels which is just...come on man.

It was a good movie. Dinosaurs ate people and did cool stuff.

it was a really bad movie.

Of course, the original came out when I was 12 and it was the best thing ever.

There was 0 chance the new one would be within 2 orders of magnitude as good, and it wasn't.

She's Bryce Dallas Howard, Ron Howard's daughter. She had to make a big deal about how she is NOT Jessica Chastain

She looked a lot like a girl I used to date but with straight hair. Her eyes were almost exactly the same which was really freaky.

There is a guy who just looks like a degenerate gambler I almost always see at the store near me. Every time he is sitting in his busted Crown Vic scratching a ticket or in the store buying one. I go there three times a week and he is there at least once.

Being a degenerate craps player in AC or Vegas is one thing, but a degenerate scratch lotto ticket in a random city is weak

I see scratched off lotto tickets on the ground all the time where just the tiny numerical code in the corner is scratched off indicating if the ticket is a winner. These people spend $5-20 per ticket and dont even try to enjoy scratching off the whole thing
