@atlanticesque I associate this brand of humor with Obvious Plant, who reddit thought was really funny a few years back

@EllyKayUSA @VApoliticalmeme I like the idea that some random congressional backbencher could be responsible for nationwide prices

So what exactly is the point of Melenchon. Why is the French left convinced to press the "100% chance of Le Pen" button. They can't be that stupid

@yukinoshoota @peltolamentum @ettingermentum I'm not exactly inspired by these numbers

@NYY_Mic @JeffPassanty @CyLiamDoyle Benge leads in:
Batting Average
On-base percentage
Stolen bases
Defensive value (eye test, positional value, and advanced stats all say so)

But sure, Stewart leads "across the board"

Go and ask anyone in an MLB front office whether RBIs are 100% skill. They will laugh at you

[𝑷𝒂𝒊𝒍𝒔 ⚘ @wupshott]

@NYY_Mic @JeffPassanty @CyLiamDoyle RBIs are a knock-on side effect of being a good hitter. They are not prima facie evidence of a hitter being good.

Stewart has a .787 OPS. Pretty good.
Benge has a .776 OPS. Pretty good too.

RBIs only say that Sal is luckier/plays in more advantageous conditions

@NYY_Mic @JeffPassanty @CyLiamDoyle Playing in a hitter's park = more RBIs. Laughable

[𝑷𝒂𝒊𝒍𝒔 ⚘ @wupshott]

@NYY_Mic @JeffPassanty @CyLiamDoyle You said something that was factually incorrect. Hard to know why anyone should take you seriously when you don't even bother to get your numbers straight.

Defense matters, for the record, and RBIs don't. Sorry.

@NYY_Mic @JeffPassanty @CyLiamDoyle He's not at 2 WAR anymore, stathead just hasn't updated. Check his main page on Baseball-Reference

@atlanticesque I remember seeing a lot of trailers for this back in the day. Somehow it stuck with me, even though I haven't ever heard a soul mention it since. Presumably, everyone involved knew how ephemeral it would be, but still spent $150M on it (and made it back!)

So much to gain and so little to lose by coming out against Breaking Bad

@AdamMantine @StatisticUrban I'm sure all the publicly accessible research that verifies Pangram's work is nothing compared to the article you sorta remember reading 2 years ago

@LRSerling I can't stand when the game is functionally over like 2 terms in because people didn't bother paying attention and made obviously dogshit moves

Then they get mad if someone else continues trying to play

@atlanticesque I recognize no past perfect. In my house, that's the plusquamperfect

Woah, the American Southwest has similar weather to Northern Mexico?

[3143Counties @The3143counties]

@TerribleMaps The U.S. version is pretty wild too. 🇺🇸🌎

Parts of America have climates comparable to places ranging from the Mediterranean and Scandinavia to southern China and the deserts of North Africa.

Basically, the U.S. has a little bit of almost everything.

Back during Trump 1 someone would say "did you read the op-ed?" and there was an op-ed you were supposed to have read

@SYNESTHEIZURE @cory_fitz This is exactly it. I can usually figure out how each of the wrong answers was meant to trick me, and why the creator wanted me not to pick them

I wonder when the last time someone laughed at a "We Are Number One" video was. Hours ago? Days? Weeks?
