gently caress it, while I'm dropping MXC quotes I might as well link the show. It's an American "dubbing" of a Japanese gameshow that has been rather liberally translated into its own unique show. It's full of people embarrassing or injuring themselves in rather harmless ways and the commentary is fantastic. You can find all the old episodes on YouTube if you want more Schadenfreude from, and in this case I say it unironically, glorious Nippon.

Any chance for some context over this sports team with the lamest name?

Skip Bayless is a grade A dipshit professional sports commentator. The Ann Coulter of sports - he says utterly idiotic poo poo all the time for attention. He's no doubt made millions of dollars doing this for years. Bonus schaden there.

That being said - guess how Johnny Manziel's career has gone so far.

I'll add that he is not a rookie, yet is available in the free agent draft to hammer the point home.

And for further clarification to those really out of the loop with sports, he was fired from one of the worst football teams because backup quarterbacks acquired from other teams were better than Manziel.

For context: this road is Mulholland Drive, one of the most famous winding roads in the world. People come from all over to ride it, show off vehicles, race, or just enjoy the scenery. This turn in particular has so many crashes that there are compilations of accidents that occur there; updated monthly. And Jay Leno sightings.

I like to think I'm at least a competent enough motorcyclist to know my limits and not come off on a corner like that but with all those cameras on the hill I'd definitely be going as fast as that cyclist through there just in case.

Apparently the corner is far more difficult than it appears on screen. :shrug: I know I avoided it when I lived in LA. That much traffic is just an impending disaster to me.

Fees go to the people running the mining equipment, so that money is loving gone.

And the higher the fee you attach, the quicker the transaction gets processed. So that money must have vanished faster than that poor deluded nerd could hit undo.

Oh wait. Bitcoin can't reverse transactions by design.

The Kansas City Chiefs football team moved up here from Texas, where they were the Dallas Texans. Originally the plan was to keep that name, but the "Kansas City Texans" is dumb as hell so it's a good thing they changed it.

No, that guy just doesn't know what he's talking about. There are two kinds of draft and they're both for players coming out of college.

One of the other riders in CA said it had something to do with the camber of the road, and that the upper bank sits at a very weird angle, if I recall correctly. When you watch the Close Call video you can see the rear kick out a bit when it rides slightly higher on the corner.

Or I could be recalling this totally wrong.
