So what did y’all do for Christmas this year? While many of you were nestled up with family in cozy homes keeping you warm from the snow falling all around you, my girlfriend and I, kidless for the first time in forever, headed for the flashy lights and glitzy pizzaz of legendary Las Vegas, Nevada.

More New Years Resolutons I’m Sure Not to Keep
More New Years Resolutions I’m Sure Not to Keep Well, that New Year’s Eve certainly was different, now wasn’t it? Staying at home curled up on the couch avoiding large gatherings of alcohol-infused morons, prodding yourself to stay awake to watch the ball drop, only to find yourself passed out beneath your Nanna’s crocheted quilt […]
The Top 10 Christmas Movies
The Top 10 Christmas Movies of All-Time By this point, we are all quite familiar with the age-old debate that has wracked human society for generations now: Does Die Hard constitute a Christmas movie?

You Can’t Fix Stupid (but you can elect it to Congress….)
You Can’t Fix Stupid (But You Can Elect it to Congress) I have tried to refrain from touching on any of the plethora of preposterously stupid things that have come out the engorged pie holes of either Marjorie “I Validate Blonde Stereotypes” Taylor Greene or Lauren “I Make $ Peddling Islamaphobia” Boebert, tried not to […]

What I’m Thankful for: 2021 Edition I’ll be the first person to acknowledge that if you go digging into the closet of historical backstory on many of the holidays and traditions that we find so heart-warming and endearing, there is some seriously messed up stuff in there. Let’s start with Christmas for example. For all […]
The Skateboard is Mightier than the Sword
The Skateboard is Mightier than the Sword A few weeks back, I personified the pent-up rage of angry white men in the humorous characterization of a rabid raccoon feverishly protecting a steaming pile of trash. Well, welcome to the real world where Kirk Rittenhouse, the 17-year old psychopath who shot and killed two harmless, unarmed […]
The Double-Sided Sexism of Denying Family Leave

You see, before my girlfriend brought my attention to this slimy, narcissistic dope-on-a-rope, I didn’t know it was even technically possible to blatantly insult and demean both genders within the exact same statement. I don’t mean a generalized slur against […]
The Red Herring Fueling White Rage
The Red Herring Fueling White Rage As I watched the election results roll in the other night, I thought to myself, You know, there sure are a lot of angry white men in this country. Admittedly, that thought was soon followed by, I think tonight is Taco Tuesday, so I am not sure how much […]
Layla and Other Assorted Racism
Layla and Other Assorted Racism As a music aficionado, I can often recall with utter clarity the moment when I heard a particular album for the first time. There was the idyllic camping trip where I stayed up all night with my high school friends listening to the Allman Brothers Eat a Peach or sitting […]
The Never-Ending Quest for the Latest and Greatest
The Never-Ending Quest for the Latest and Greatest A friend of mine recently asked me if I had already gotten the new iPhone 13. When I replied that I was unaware that there were now more incarntations of the iPhone than there were Friday the 13th movies, they quickly surmised that I had not. I […]
