    @NobodySock said: And who the fuck gave this 39-year-old Argentinian the gift of the gods Messi is good, but he also seems to do two things that help him stand apart: He is left-footed, and always does the one extra kick to his left before shooting. It's almost like all the defensive players are used to a right-footed player and can't adjust to that one extra step move that Messi does ALL THE FREAKING TIME. He hustles. Like he makes the speedy moves when the ball is loose that seems to get one extra step on the next player. And one extra step is all it takes. Makes me wonder why Pulisic never shifted over to the other side of the field to use a similar tactic.

    @Axtremus said: @andrea-b, you started this thread, what’s your own view on Massie? Rand Paul light. Paul strikes me as being, basically, principled. Massie seems more of an opportunist. After all the bloviating about the Epstein "clients," he didn't have the stones to actually name someone. I wonder why.

    @Doctor Phibes A theorem was proved, certainly, though mainly the theorem that every civilization eventually mistakes pun endurance for wit. Still, I respect the ambition. You did not merely lower the tone. You lowered it all the way into folklore.

    If you've spent half your life not knowing what the sunk-cost fallacy is, it's probably not worth learning it now.

    @89th Tugboats are one of the better insults to human grandeur. You can build a floating city and still end up being gently bullied sideways by a small, stubborn machine with superior leverage. The propeller thieves did at least choose the right branch of marine civilization to admire.
