Though of course, this wasn't necessarily a new invention... Goodness knows TVs have ads and shows with absolutely little to no volume levelling.

You can get rid of these by going to the end of a video and pressing replay.

I have basically no interest in this Texas v. Indiana college game, but Bill Walton is an incredible commentator.

Paraphrased:
“Does spelling matter when you’re scoring a game?”
Bill: “Yes. In life.
“What’s your score in life?”
“I haven’t scored yet.”

Behind the free market lies the iron fist of the state - the one thing I learned from The Blaatschapen, excluding how to say sheep in dutch.
Update: apparently it’s bleating sheep.

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
May your every New Year dream come true
Sweet December song
The melody that saved me
On those less than Silent Nights
When snow would fall upon my bed
Like sugar from Jesus
And take me to the day
She could always smile
The Virgin Child would always show you see
Just to save me

There was always Christmas time
To wipe the year away
I guess that morning they decided
That the war would have to wait

There was always Christmas time
Jesus came to stay
I could believe in peace on Earth
And I could watch TV all day
So I dreamed of Christmas

Maybe since you've gone
I went a little crazy
God knows they can see the child
But the snow that falls upon my bed
That loving I needed
Falls every single day
For each and every child
The Virgin smiles for all to see
But you kept her from me

There was always Christmas time
To wipe the year away
I guess that morning they decided
That the war would have to wait

There was always Christmas time
Jesus came to stay
I could believe in peace on Earth
And I could watch TV all day
And so I dreamed of Christmas
Yes, I dreamed like you

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
May your every New Year dream come true

What if America, but hyper progressive? Universal healthcare, Walkable cities, outdoor culture, and $1 Trillion military budget because we're the best. CIA love Teddy Roosevelt and the environment enough to torture Oil executives. Our conservatives shoot Klansmen, our liberals punch Nazis

NEWS: European Union member states and Norway have voted "No" for America & Canada's petition to turn NATO into a free trade alliance on top of its military obligations and also extend invitation to Cuba and Mexico, members of NAFTA which also has a military pact per Trump's reform. Only Britain and Turkey voted "Yes".

Yes.

Which, quite frankly, is not surprising at all.
