As tough as this week has been (and also just right off the bat: my apologies to the people of Egypt, Mali, Mexico City, Pakistan, and Brazil for even using the word “tough.” That is obviously the wrong week. And Taylor Swift and Diet Coke can both go fuck themselves to death) it has still been a pretty lively week for comments, and that is what we are here to celebrate! I would also like to take a quick second and thank Jason Reich and Emily Gordon for their contributions. Very niiiiice. (Borat.) Let’s all kick back and relax, open a cool one and enjoy THE BIG GAME! Who do you think is going to win? The San Fransisco Samsung Galaxys? Or the Baltimore GoDaddys?! Nnnnn…..IT’S EXCITING! (Again: my apologies to Egypt, Mali, Mexico City, Pakistan, Brazil, and also Syria and the multiple locations in the United States where there were mass shootings this week good lord up in heaven.) TGIF, though, right?!

[Ed. Note: Obviously, the true Editor’s Choice this week was CrystalStarxx’s comment: “wow seriously diet coke” but that was posted on YouTube and therefore not eligible. And the entire racist Super Bowl ad thread gets a big thumbs up. But I chose this comment because the idea of a Joe Mande Captain America has been making me laugh all week.]
