Burger King's Hot Dogs Are A Tasteful Middle Finger To Uppity Fast Food
Hey, bud, want a burrito? For real. I appreciate you: For the way you talk, the way you walk, the way you’re statistically unlikely to be the shrieky dude who lives upstairs. But mostly for the way you click. Damn, you click so good. So I would like to give you a burrito. Or more specifically, I wou...

About That Distraught Thunder Fan Video
We’ve been sent the above video—purporting to be of a Thunder fan rightfully panicking over Steph Curry having the ball in his hands at the end of Saturday’s thriller—a few times now, so let’s nip it in the bud: it’s hilarious but it’s not real. The real one is even better....

It's Okay To Have A Crush When You're In A Relationship
Crushes are something of a chronic condition. You’ve had them since you were young enough to pull pigtails over them, and you’re not going to stop having them anytime soon.

Rice Pitcher Blake Fox Is Sly
College baseball, as much as we love it, embraces some of the sport’s worst elements: repeated bunting and pickoff attempts.

Making fun of Donald Trump is remarkably easy, but that doesn’t mean it ain’t satisfying. So why not sit back and watch self-described parrot banker John Oliver comprehensively rip Trump a new moneyhole for 20 solid minutes? You won’t be disappointed. You can’t be disappointed. Sometimes the easiest...

Amar'e Stoudemire Doesn't Think Carmelo Anthony Has Handled This Knicks Thing Very Well
