Well, you can fuck off Dean Cain.

Superman is an assimilated Jewish diaspora immigrant.

"Name?"

"Kal-El"

"Clark Kent, got it."

She knew exactly what she was going to be defending. She used all the code words and dog whistles from the start.

Her presence on a project will raise my eyebrows.

So I'm assuming she will head to Mozilla or Ubuntu.

Fucking A

Sure.

I totally agree that absolutely anybody with current training in anything would have made me pay dearly for my stupidity.

However, because I'm a random American who played football, I was the one with the scintilla more experience, and I got to keep my teeth.

The American dudes who played sports in high school and are now in their 20s and 30s haven't had their health collapse yet.

European cops are way more intimidating than American cops, by and large. I'm not trying to be jingoistic, I'm just saying that running after someone who is carrying something is the version of the national sport the vast majority of us actually play.

This isn't about standing up and doing axe kicks and shit, this is about chasing somebody down and getting the ball back from them.

I've personally chased somebody down who assumed they could outrun me because I was fat, ten years after the last time I played gridiron.

My knees were wobbly and I was a little lightheaded afterward, but it's the one athletic ability your stereotypical dumbass American will have. We'll literally break our own ankle trying to do a stepover. Or maybe that's just me. 😄

In São Paulo it was a little mini-assault.

You'd get shoved from behind, maybe bumped into from the side, while yet another guy is actually taking your shit. Extra credit if you're at a curb so you stumble.

Then everybody splits, your instinct is to turn around to see the guy who shoved you, by the time you've done that and realized what happened, your shit is goooone.

What are they doing in Paris that the mark has a chance to grab them? I guess if you're in a reasonably athletic pack of 4-5, but at that point surely there are easier targets?

I suppose people who don't watch American sports don't appreciate that there are many obese Americans who can still run 40 yards in six seconds and expertly smash you into the ground when they get there.

Oh, many many of them.
