Well, I got some bad news today. While it’s not as bad as some of the things going on around the world, it’s bad to me. I’m so sick of people constantly belitting someone’s problems in the grand scheme of the world. C.S. Lewis once said, “The pain I feel now is the happiness IContinue reading “Get Knocked Down; Get Back Up”

If It Doesn’t Sound Too Real To Be Good, It Probably Isn’t
Let’s be honest. Just about anyone with any common sense could’ve told you over 10 years ago a lot of the social media posts and chatter was from bots. When South Park did an entire episode over sponsored content, it wasn’t the best, but it was a warning sign. The newspaper company I worked for had started doing this around 2013. The concept they proposed was people paying us to write stories about them. ButContinue reading “If It Doesn’t Sound Too Real To Be Good, It Probably Isn’t”
What An Outrageous Fucked-Up Time To Be Alive, Right?!
I’ve lived in my house nearly 20 years. It’s right across the street from a cattle and horse ranch. I’ve smelt both bullshit and horseshit for two decades and it still smells worse coming out of Washington, D.C. About a week ago, we thought he had died and so many people were happy. The airContinue reading “What An Outrageous Fucked-Up Time To Be Alive, Right?!”
Please Help “Burger King Mom”
Every now and again, we all seem to work a job where we’re the only one on staff making it impossible to even take a restroom break for a few minutes. A few weeks ago, Nykia Hamilton, 25, went viral when a video of her working all by herself at a Burger King in Columbia,Continue reading “Please Help “Burger King Mom””
We Owe Lindsay Lohan An Apology
I’m in no hurry to see Freakier Friday. I just watched the original one the other day for the first time in 20 years. Over the years, the actress/singer took a lot of shit for what people said and did. I’d argue the whole thing with Georgia Rule and her partying was just a PRContinue reading “We Owe Lindsay Lohan An Apology”
Getting Their Hands Caught In The Cookie Jar Is Some Sweet Revenge
This time last week, there’s a good chance 99.9999 percent of the world didn’t know who Andy Byron is nor had they heard of Astronomer. Yet, days ago, he was caught on a “Kiss Cam” Jumbotron at a Coldplay concert in Foxborough, Mass., a suburb of Boston. Byron was shown to the crowd on theContinue reading “Getting Their Hands Caught In The Cookie Jar Is Some Sweet Revenge”
Anyone Still Believe This Horseshit?!
When I was working as a reporter down in south Georgia near Plains, I was covering an event where former President Jimmy Carter was speaking. I was taking notes and got this feeling I was being watched. I glanced to my left and saw a Secret Service guy standing five feet away or so staringContinue reading “Anyone Still Believe This Horseshit?!”
OceanGate Titan Docs Expose What Most Of Us Suspected
Two years ago on this date, June 18, the OceanGate Titan submersible imploded in the North Atlantic Ocean. Th submersible was intended to take rich people on a trip to view the wreckage of the RMS Titanic. Except there was a huge problem – it wasn’t safe. The implosion killed all five of its occupantsContinue reading “OceanGate Titan Docs Expose What Most Of Us Suspected”
This Is What People Want
The greatest myth of the American ideology is that even though “All men are created equal,” no one is willing to share their toys with other people. We’ve always wanted inequality. Yes, people, well…men, might be created equal in theory, but after we’re born we’re on our own. Currently the National Guard was at aContinue reading “This Is What People Want”
Don’t Be That Guy!
Even if the driver of this huge truck didn’t have a political sticker for the current administration, I could’ve guessed that he was a supporter. That’s my red Ford Escape I have parked in the handicapped spot. I finally got my handicapped placard less than two weeks ago. My ex had one for many yearsContinue reading “Don’t Be That Guy!”
