99% Invisible did an episode on this.

It's a great listen. Basically it makes audiences think the show is funnier, or rather it gives audiences permission to laugh out loud alone.

Yes, which is exactly why Republicans are making those crazy claims.

When the Saudi deals resurface in the public spotlight Republicans will point to those baseless claims and say "How is what the Trump kids doing any worse than this!?!?!?" and their followers will accept it at face value and say "See both sides are doing it, it's bad but no worse than what the other guy is doing"

Mostly by accident, imagine what we could do if we were trying to kill everything off.

I love this song so much. An absolute banger every time I hear it.

When I was in college I just bought new printers on sale when I ran out of ink because it was cheaper than buying refills.

Imma need to see a source for that claim.

Sure if she's doing a team endorsement deal as a part of her contact that goes to the WNBA, but if Vuori or State farm or whoever just sign Caitlin Clark to a deal to appear as Caitlin Clark the WNBA doesn't just take a cut of that.

MVP in getting the bag. $100M guaranteed at 35 coming off an Achilles tear.

The final straw for me was the day after the episode where Beth died aired. It was the morning after that episode aired and I hadn't had time to watch it yet, and I was scrolling through Facebook when a giant "RIP Beth" picture popped up on my main feed from the official Walking Dead account.

The official account couldn't even hold itself back from posting spoilers for 24 hours after the air date and I realized I didn't even care that the episode had been spoiled. I didn't care about the characters, or the plot or the direction the story was going.

I haven't watched anything Walking Dead since.

It's probably what it would've been, but the marketing guys weren't able to get ahold of this message before it leaked out.

God I hate In 'N Out's fries. Just cut up the Styrofoam cup and eat that instead.

What I think they meant to have rollout is to potentially raise their prices across the board and then offer discounts at off-peak times.

Functionally it's the exact same thing as what leaked but is way easier to sell as value added to potential customers.
