(Novella) Living proof that extreme cold isn't always the most dangerous thing about Antarctica.
Hint: the novella in question has been the basis for two hit feature films.
You can lead a horse to water...
But they'll probably find it just fine on their own.
Somewhere in the afterlife Leopold Galtieri is sweating bullets right about now...
With just over one hour of game time elapsed so far, England is holding a 1-0 lead over Argentina in the World Cup semifinals.
From the whackjobs at Krait. For some reason that old quote about accusations and confessions is currently running through my brain.
Buckle up, gang....
Today's England-Norway World Cup match is currently tied 1-1 at 92 minutes 18 seconds. We could be looking at penalty kicks to decide this one.
Not sure what this means in the long run...
But England's currently up 2-1 on Mexico at halftime. That rain delay might have actually done the Lions a favor.
Why aren't there any knock-knock jokes about the US?
Because freedom rings.
Official statement from the Mexican professional football league.
AITJ for not wanting my ship to get sunk during a typhoon?
Backstory: I'm(M/27) a naval reservist whose last posting was as executive officer to a minesweeper in the Pacific. So we ran into this absolute monster of a typhoon and our captain, who'd lately been crashing out over STRAWBERRIES of all things, insisted we keep going on our original course even though I could see it was going to take it right into the storm's path. So I relieved him of command and now they're throwing mutiny charges in my face just because I wanted to keep my crew safe! AITJ?
Maple Leaf Wrestling has confirmed that former TNA tag team champion Joe Doering passed early this morning after a decade-long fight with brain cancer.
reddit.comUh....Vegas? You going to respond? At least TRY to save the game?
Carolina is working on a two-goal shutout of the Knights with less than six minutes left in the second period.
If anybody's looking for some positive stuff....
You'll be glad to know that the USMNT opened its 2026 World Cup run with a 4-1 win against Paraguay tonight.
Well, you guys don't have to worry about me jinxing anything for at least the next 24 hours....
I'm in the midst of a mental health crisis after finding out one of my neighbors may not be coming home again.
Just a hunch but I'm thinking Game 1 of this year's Stanley Cup Finals will be going on until the wee small hours of the morning...
Last I checked Vegas was narrowly clinging to a 4-3 lead early in the third period. Guarantee this will go to at least one overtime.
AITJ for stealing my navy's most advanced submarine?
OK, context: I'm(M/54) a naval veteran and I've spent a lot of time helping train my navy's nuclear sub captains. So the other day I'm checking out the blueprints for our fleet's newest missile submarine, and boy howdy, I did NOT like what I saw. We're supposed to be a deterrent force, right? But this bad boy had "first strike weapon" written all over it. It looked like something that would be used to start a nuclear war, not prevent one. Not my idea of a good time. So I got together with a few friends and we all agreed this had to be squashed and squashed hard. We swiped the sub and now my own navy's trying to blow me to kingdom come while the other guy's navy thinks I want to start World War III. AITJ?
Buckle up, folks, Game 7 of the NBA Western Conference finals is really getting interesting...
With just over nine minutes to go in regulation, the Spurs are barely clinging to a 92-86 lead over OKC. This could be going to at least one overtime, if not more. It's a question of who runs out of gas first.
If it's not against sub rules...
I'd like to ask everyone here to join me in wishing our comrades-in-arms at r/DerScheisser a Happy Sink the Bismarck Day.
Fasten your seat belts...
Montreal vs Buffalo Game 7 has just gone into overtime.
(Mental Illness Trope) Characters whose questionable decisions have devastating consequences for their sanity.
- Paul Radin, the protagonist of "One More Pallbearer" from the original Twilight Zone. Nursing a grudge against three people from his younger days, he sets up an elaborate ruse to try and dupe them into thinking nuclear war has erupted so he can get the vindication he thinks he deserves. TLDR: they see right through it and it breaks him so bad he becomes almost catatonic.
- Norma Desmond, the main female character in "Sunset Boulevard". In hopes of rejuvenating her faded career she hires a fugitive copywriter to work on editing her script for a costume epic she's sure will launch her cinematic comeback. If you've seen the original 1950 movie or Andrew Lloyd Webber's 1991 Broadway musical adaptation, you can probably remember how that turned out.
