So, it's OK to kill people when?
With any senseless murder in the United States, naturally the whole gun control debate comes up.
Don't show it to me and I won't be tempted
Want me to do it? Want me to do it? No? Well, why are you teasing me?
Am I really becoming "that" person?
I hate shopping. I can't stand malls. I'm that guy who gets Christmas shopping done online or in the mall for as short a time as possible. But, there's a but. But I love grocery shopping.
The 1 life rule you should have
Spring is a great time to reconnect with people and catch up. In recent weeks, I’ve been in touch with people from my past. It was similar to the start of the pandemic when many of us scrolled through our phone and/or social media and randomly reached out to people we hadn’t had contact with in a while.
Did you really just call me that?
You’re not a parent, you wouldn’t understand.
Will I stay after I get your cookies?
In one afternoon I got signed up for three reward programs. I certainly wasn’t pressured into joining but I did feel like I was a bad customer for not being aware of them in the first place.
Wasn't this supposed to make life easier?
Suck it up and get ready to work your fingers. It’s the last thing you want to be doing but you have no choice.
Please tell me when it's OK to do this
There are drunken goons at sporting events? Say it ain’t so.
Does that really need to get your panties in a bunch?
Lots of people think they’re cool as a cucumber. Rarely do people want to admit to being a worrier.
I can't believe I wrote that
I fancy myself a writer. In today’s world I really am just a typer (“typist” sounds too formal and professional) since when I physically use a pen, I can barely understand what my message is.
There's no way I'm doing it again
I think back on my time as a student walking the halls of my school… and occasionally skipping class. I remember how life was carefree, I felt safe and looked forward to growing up and making something of my life.
You want access to my what?
To play a casino game on my phone I needed to give the app access to my address book, photos, videos and grant permission to record audio. Hmm… now, let’s see if I can figure out how my personal information and files could be compromised.
Everybody has THAT co-worker
I always loved working in an office. I appreciated having a desk and a computer – a space I could call home base.
You know you're stupid when...
We’re getting dumber, let’s face it. We don’t use our brains like we used to. How do I know? I’m living proof.
From one dumpster fire to another or...?
This is the time when everyone reflects on the year that was and says, “What a dumpster fire, can’t wait for the new year.”
Do it or shut up
Every day it seems like the world (and by that, I mean Twitter -- or whatever it's called now) is coming to an end. And because of that, I shake my head and remember how sad society is with its reliance on social media.
With the cost of everything going up, it’s had many people figuring out how to save a little more -- or a lot more, let's be honest.
Let's see 'em. Show us!
Every other day the world is treated to another vicious video of a teenager being attacked at school while onlookers giggle and record with their phones. (And I use the word “treated” sarcastically because the videos are usually disgustingly disturbing.)
I think about plenty when I pee but this ain't helpin'.
I haven’t spent much time in the online dating scene. Why? Because it would probably lead to conflict in my house and many nights sleeping alone.
