I went to one in London for shits and giggles and they had things like American high school varsity football jerseys from the 1980s (you could tell because they were those high cut midriff ones) on one of their clothing racks. ayn rand hand job posted:or 3rd world countries oh yeah that same store + it's sister stores have racks of football/cheerleading/field hockey/etc. varsity jackets from the 80s-00s and it's vaguely creepy to me to imagine walking around in someone's high school jacket that says JEREMY 02 03 04 05 on it

peter thiel is a weird dude. i saw him give a talk where he praised karl marx endlessly and said that most of what he wrote is true. the main focus was the idea that capitalism always produces markets that end in monopoly. thiel agreed with this but thinks that just means that investors and business folks should only work on or invest in things that they can monopolize because that's how to make money. afterwards he did a book signing and i asked him if he could make it out to my old lady and his little gay dwarf helper looking guy said "no special requests!!" and moved in between me and thiel like i was going to attack him or something. but thiel just said "what's her name" and did it. he told people to pitch him a fifteen second idea that sounds crazy but is true so i told him that i get super hungry when I sneeze a bunch from allergies and he said "I'm not sure how you can make money on that." anyway that's my Peter thiel story. he has really dead eyes.

I think it's good he's caring more about women's issues now that he has a daughter. I didn't care about Boston area townie assholes until I read his stories about Sully, Murph, Turd, Boob Dog, Cuntass, Seath the Scaleless, etc.

i will say that I have tried to watch League of legends and hearthstone and some fighting games stuff but I rarely understand it, so I'm not sure where the appeal is for people that don't actually play the game like i do with overwatch. but i've never played anything other than backyard football and like watching that so i don't know. but there seems like a difference even though football is very hard to understand for people who haven't grown up watching it.

I mean, I would pay 4 bucks a month or whatever it is if Andrew Gross covered the Rangers again since he was their best beat guy, but they hired Rick Carpinello who is just very bland so I read more of the other stuff on the site. so it depends on the beat writer for me

Stephen A is funny and about as entertaining as you can expect for someone in that role, until he gets serious like telling pro athletes that they don't want to make an enemy of him, then he's extremely funny

even if their ARPU is fairly low it still bizarrely will almost look better for investors since it will be easy to show somewhat stable growth. they will raise prices or not offer as many deals next year to bump it up a few dollars, then more the next year, etc. they'll probably have good retention rates since people have short term memories and the investors are probably on board with that growth plan. not that it might be as great for us in 5 years when we're paying 10-15/month but they give a lot of freedom/pay to a lot of really good writers and their interface is clean, so the price point before i cancel would be pretty high
