Rolling Obituary Thread: 2015

Sports writing is and always will be terrible, because sports contests are extremely rule-bound and essentially near duplicates of one another in everything but the outcome of each contest. All the possible stories have been written hundreds of thousands of times. Consequently, sports writers are stuck in horrible dead end jobs they often become wretched unhappy people.

They just need to dig up the Bible verse where Jesus says it's ok to hate people and mess up your home if there's money in it.

That would require actually reading the Bible, it's way easier just to not read it and carry on being human garbage.

xpost yes it's quite similar to st. vincent lyrics, saw her pull it off live recently but it's not good reading material. arcade fire's worse though imo:
