I Must Be a Dick, Because I’ve Never Been Taken — Depending on who you ask, rumor had it that the rapture was supposed to have taken place this past weekend. I actually tried Googling it for the exact date, but all I found were Reddit posts about it that were likely written in Moms’ basements all over the Deep South…

Unusual Ways I Can Save You Hundreds a Month — I already know what you’re thinking about this one. And you’re wrong. This isn’t going to be one of those typical run-of-the-mill Medium listicles that so many people get their panties twisted in a wad over. Don’t worry. This is actually going to be some useful shit. I know that…

It Was an Interesting Experience Last Night — So last night, I was in the middle of getting blown when I had a number of random thoughts. This doesn’t always happen when I’m being blown, but it occasionally can. When it does, it makes me laugh. Laughing when you’re getting blown isn’t something most people do. I have…

It Wears on Me When I See Shit Like This — I live in a red, conservative state. You don’t have to drive very far to see Confederate flags hanging from people’s homes or vehicles. Not just from trailers. Nice homes. Expensive trucks. You’ll also see Trump and Let’s Go Brandon flags. Don’t Tread on Me Flags. Police Lives Matter flags…

So far so good, I enjoy most of the stuff I’ve seen her in. Especially as Jackie-Q in Get Him to the Greek. She’s pretty awesome. While watching, I noticed…

When the Blue Light Special Ruled the Retail World — “Jason. If you calm down and go back to class, and you’re a good boy for the rest of the week, I’ll take you to Kmart to get a toy on Saturday.” What? A TOY? From my favorite store, Kmart? This changes things. Stick that lower lip back where it…

You Don’t Have to Take it So Hard — Here the fuck we go again. There I was, innocently sipping my coffee this morning. I generally have a difficult time shaking off the cobwebs from a solid 8 hours or so of sleep. Coffee while perusing Medium or Facebook helps to snap me out of my tendency of not…

I Need You to Forgive Yourself, You Deserve That — Every person on our planet has their worst critic. Someone who makes their lives miserable with constant negativity, insults, doubt, and guilt-tripping. Often times that person is a close family member or even a “friend”. More often than not though, that person is YOU. So many people are so hard…
