hey gawker dudes. what the fuck is wrong with you?

sorry for derailing

i find it wild that people answer their phones for someone/thing that is not in their phones' phonebook (this does not apply to old ppl w only land lines)

when my kids were in day care I had to! they always called from their personal phones to say hey, your kid puked, go pick 'em up

LL: I wasn’t trying to change your mind, but fair enough.

sorry to derail but where are we talking about the CIA taking $50k from the cut's financial advice columnist for safekeeping?

The bit (assuming the whole thing isn't a bit, so to speak) where the CIA dude gives her a nine-digit case number and she thinks "Hmm, I should check this is on the up-and-up" and googles the case number is amazing.

Just amazing seeing the reactions on Twitter. Literally nobody is shedding a tear for these writers.

what is happening

people who complain about sports media are generally one of the worst segments of the internet

I have no idea what's up at deadspin since all the people whose work I liked reading left, but it sucks to be a writer and get laid off! Maybe having little to no budget had a lot to do with that article getting published without editorial oversight or a second person saying "hey, maybe leave this bit out" but I'm sure sports dorks are going to talk about it forever

local sports fans are still weird about some young writer for the paper who got thrown under the bus after a misconstrued interaction with someone he interviewed
