If you’re like me, sometimes you find yourself in trouble with the significant other, or pissed off at the significant other, or personally wounded by the significant other, in which case nothing says “You should feel bad for hurting my feelings and buy me a yummy snacky treat and rub my feet” like a Sad [...]

This is Why We Listen to House

He’s not really a doctor, he just plays one on TV… or so I THOUGHT! But Dr. House is my new doctor. They said you can get worms in your brain on the last episode I watched, just from eating undercooked bad pork. I thought it was artistic shitty same-plotline-every-episode shenanigans to keep things interesting, but [...]

I know that when I pop one of these doughy masterpieces into my mouth forevermore I won’t be able to think of anything but this. So I hope that, for the rest of your life, you will always be haunted by this image too. And make sure everyone at your table does as well.

If you’ve forgotten, or were just sleeping through, Part 1 and Part 2 of my visit to my dear mother in Bordertown, Idaho, you may or may not have realized or cared that those were but two installments of what was to be a trilogy. If you didn’t make the connection, that’s ok, I was never [...]

We all know that people are insane. We also know that they are stupid. But this, this is just pathetic. A Wal-Mart temporary employee was trampled - TRAMPLED, as in KILLED - by people who BROKE DOWN THE DOORS minutes before the 5am Black Friday opening. He was only 34. From the International Herald Tribune: At 4:55 a.m., [...]

Don’t fall for their wily woman panda ways! Or you’ll end [...]

You become a tree. So apparently this guy in Indonesia got a cut on his knee when he was 15 and a wart appeared and then the shit storm broke loose all over his leg and spread throughout his body, hijacking his cells and demanding “One MILLION DOLLARS” while cruising around in a Bob’s Big Boy [...]

My friends and I used to get a kick out of passing notes, throwing spitballs, and crafting masterful paper airplanes to sail at the back of the teacher’s head. Worst case scenario, we missed a recess if we got caught, but it was oh so worthwhile. In the age of school shootings and stabbings and drug [...]

… be sure to videotape her psychotic abuse and post it on YouTube for the world to see your dysfunctional family.

It’s Friday, thank god. As anyone who has ever worked a phone job can attest to, that amazing invention with the buttons and the dial tone attracts some total nutjobs that grace one’s daily life on this end of the telephone cord with some truly awesome glimpses at humanity at its finest.

Really? I mean, match.com or www.meetyourfreakloveronline.com or whatever is one thing. And I know that people can get frustrated with the bar scene. But who REALLY looks to people in the prison system for love!??
