Appropriate Boston Parting Gift
So this morning I arrived at the office to find some donuts. I like a donuts a lot (not quite as much as chocolate chip cookies, but still), however I’ve been eating a lot better for the last year and so naturally sugary things like donuts and baked goods have gotten the axe for the most part. But being my last day here at this contracting job, I figured what the hell. Besides, it would be...

Koalas Aren’t Hard They Some Little Bitches.
From an 8th grader’s essay in Pittsburgh. Not quite sure how you get away with writing like this in school, at least as far as the swearing goes. Do you get a detention for turning in something like this? If I was the teacher I’d give him an A+ with detention. “I shouldn’t do shit. I don’t care about them they all could die and it won’t affect my life. I know a lot about them...

Grandma doesn't get it
“… As people age, they lose their sense of humor, says a new study. It takes brainpower to compute the meaning of a joke — short-term memory, abstract reasoning, and cognitive flexibility are all key — so elderly people with declining mental abilities can also experience a dulled sense of absurdity…” - The Week, v7, i320 I think that’s the most...

Fuck Bear.... Survivorman 4 life!
Bear Grylls has a show on the Discovery Channel called “Man VS Wild” where he battles the elements, quickly builds shelter and eats live animals. I mean this bitch makes it look like he can build a Four Seasons out of 3 twigs during a snowstorm. Well, sources say that Bear is a big fraud. They say that producers make it look like he’s braving it, but when the cameras are...

Sticker Shock
“Four-dollar Cokes; no, €4 Cokes,” said Kaelon Kroft, a custodian from San Bernardino, California, when asked what sticker shocked him most in Paris. “We just paid €9.50 for a can of Coke at a café. At our hotel, the bar was serving a glass of Coke for €4.” “That’s over five bucks,” his wife, Kristi, added. Actually, at the current exchange rate, it is a...

Stranded
I woke up this morning, got ready as usual. Collected my things and headed out the door. Got to the parking lot and hit the unlock button on my remote for my rental car. Nothing happened. I looked up, looked around, turned around, and then sighed. I didn’t see the car where I left it, just an empty parking space. I hit the panic button…nothing. Car was not even remotely close. So, now...
Opinion
