you can start sentences with 'and' and 'but'. prescriptive grammar rules are for nobodies that don't understand the underlying purpose of the grammar that they're using

I don't think that guy's good enough with grammar to start breaking the rules yet

:rip: jokes aside anyone else actually worried about ninth layer because i am.

I bookmarked this to see whether he's still alive or if the craigslist dude made a condom out of his face.

It's looking more and more like face-condom :(

Best part: "And he is not just some random celebrity with a platform; he’s a politician who actively affects policy. That’s objectively more harmful than the usual powerless bigot-athlete."
I mean, come on. I learned in the first grade you don't start a sentence with "And."

Gawker's millennial writers don't give a rip about what society thinks they should be writing, my man.

I'm a mess in distress
But we're still the best dressed
Just trying to make jokes because im legit worried but if they ever find the bodies im willing to go the funeral and deliver my best version of Roy Jones Jr's "Yall must've forgot" instead of like Amazing Grace

EDIT: vvvv I want to say he's from somewhere in California but I do know he is not local to Vegas

EDIT (Lionel): 9th and his buddies went to Vegas and iirc the plan was to watch on closed circuit at one of the hotels but they got crowded out so they ended going to some random dude's place on Craigslist after drilinking like 10 cheap Mexican beers each and wonder why im really worried.

I'm back and alive. My phone broke sometime around Saturday which is why I stopped posting.

Craigslist guy was cool, gave us a ride from and then back to the hotel so we could keep drinking all night. I hear people are disappointed by the fight but I thought it was great. Floyd put on a brilliant performance and Manny had his moments, just not many of them. It's an end of an era now that these guys have fought. I'm not terribly interested in a rematch and from what I hear Manny may be out with an injury for the rest of the year.

Sorry to make you guys worried :( I straight up didn't have internet until I got back to Cali at 11pm last night and once I did I went straight for bed.

So do people think Pacquiao is injured/faded or is Mayweather just that ridiculously good at forcing people into his plan? I really expected to see more from him

Little bit of both.


His punch output was just ridiculously low.

boxrec posted:

According to Compubox, the fight against Mayweather set the record for Manny Pacquiao to land and throw the least number of punches in his 14 fights which have gone the 12-round-distance

Mayweather is obviously amazing defensively, but Manny threw less punches than Marcos loving Maidana did in either fight. (or Robert Guerrero)
