Dumbest Man Alive Gives Dumbest Possible Explanation For Dumb HOF Vote
This year, I decided to make my life a little happier by giving up on my usual winter pastime of hate-reading terrible Hall of Fame columns written by trolls and gibbering nitwits.

Here's A Fine Canadian Beer That Isn't One Of The Obvious Ones
Yesterday a reader suggested that we pump out a "Canadian Beers, Ranked" post, which is a good idea long overdue. Part of the reason we haven't done one yet is good old classic American sloth, and the other part is that, regarding the macro category at least, I can't imagine ranking anything No. 1. ...
Roger Goodell Failed, So Now He's More Powerful Than Ever

<i>Blood and Bone </i>Treats Michael Jai White Like The Badass Miracle He Is
America has failed as a society in many ways, and one of them is this: Michael Jai White is not a titanic movie star. There is no reason why Michael Jai White is not a titanic movie star. He can act. He has a calm, still, intimidating presence. He's handsome enough to play the love interest in a...

Don Lemon To American Human-Rights Lawyer: "Do You Support ISIS?"
Fresh off asking an alleged rape victim why she didn't just bite her attacker's dick off, CNN anchor Don Lemon is back to insulting his show's guests via his total lack of preparation and general clown-show routine. Or maybe he's just stupid. I don't know....
