Blackula69 posted:Also my girlfriend is a bilingual editor/proofreader for the main publication of the canadian government. So she writes, translates, and edits stuff in both official languages, much of which was written by random public servants with a) no writing training whatsoever b) little skill in their second language and c) a vested interest in obfuscating the real meaning of the law/regulation/proposal. Does it gently caress up her grammar when she's speaking socially? Because I spent a while studying Spanish and I keep having to fight the urge to drop Spanish words into my speech patterns, which is especially annoying since I now live in a place where nobody speaks Spanish.

You wouldn't think Jason Whitlock could make that sort of a burn with a straight face considering some of the garbage he's produced, yet there it is.

Yeah, that article was Legitimately Good. Which just makes his usual output all the more frustrating, really. Then again he worked in Kansas City for a while so maybe the hopelessness of the local sports scene beat him down.

The only correct answer to "do you like girls?" is to proclaim you're a big fan of Ellen DeGeneres.

Mel Mudkiper posted:Peter King amuses me because he seems to have no earthly idea that people loving hate him. He just spends week after week talking about his stupid bullshit completely unaware of how universally loathed he is. The man wrote about his bowel movements in a media column available to readers worldwide and got paid for it. And it wasn't a troll column either. He was absolutely loving sincere about sharing his adventures in mildly-inconvenient diarrhea with the human race as a whole.

He's a lucky loving bastard and I hate him unreservedly for it. Basically if you showed Peter King to the God of Moses, he'd go back and rewrite the 10th Commandment.
