Getting to Know Your Candidates

The 2012 Presidential elections are just around the corner, but you already know that. Unless you’ve been hiding out in your doomsday shelter for the past four years, you’ve watched the Republicans squirm in their seats, cry like babies and demand that they be put in charge. Well, their chance is finally here as the [...] [...more]

2011: The Year That Wasn’t

Yeah, yeah, yeah… a lot of shit happened in 2011. Big deal, I say! Thanks to 24-hour news networks and our Internet overlords, we were all there to see what went down. I feel like this past year’s major events have been pounded into our heads over and over again to the point of numbness. [...] [...more]

The MP3 Manifesto

Almost all of us have done it. If you haven’t illegally downloaded music, it’s probably because you don’t know how. My mother is pretty much a saint, a real church-going catholic woman who even sings in the choir, but even she isn’t immune. It seems like after Napster blew up in the late ‘90s, illegal [...] [...more]

Happy Dranksgiving!

Go find your fat pants… Thanksgiving is here! Turkey Day is one of, if not the best, American holidays. For a nation known for mass proportions, it’s always comforting when gluttony is openly encouraged. Each year toward the end of November, families battle through traffic and with each other to get at plates loaded with [...] [...more]

Popular Uprisings

There’s a war going on outside that no man is safe from. The rich have destroyed the economy, eliminated jobs and hoarded cash. Now the jobless masses created by the rich have begun demonstrating on Wall Street and in other cities across America. America has officially proclaimed it class warfare, and we are deep in [...] [...more]

Fall On Your Ass

Fall is back and you know what that means: new TV shows! Each autumn our network overlords throw us a fresh batch of random shit to watch. I took a peek at the actual shows premiering this year and it’s not good. What will I mindlessly stare at for 30 to 60 minutes at a [...] [...more]

I <3 Haxors

It used to be so cute. A little snooping here…a smidge of copyright infringement there; most of us didn’t even notice. Things went on that way for a number of years. I’m too lazy to pin down exactly when hacking came to the attention of the populace, but I’d guess it was sometime around the [...] [...more]

Drop that Doobie, Brother!

It’s 4/20 and you are so fucked up right now! It’s like the numbers of the month and day require you to get totally blazed! I’m surprised you are even trying to read this. No, you aren’t being paranoid; this newspaper/blog is talking to you. Crazy, right? Yes, that is really good shit, but I [...] [...more]

Eat Eat Eat Eat

I love food. I should weigh 500 pounds. I’ve never met a cuisine I couldn’t enjoy in some way, shape or form. I sometimes do an involuntary little food dance in my seat. It sort of looks like a dog wagging its tail accompanied by some lip smacking. This dance worried my ex, as she [...] [...more]
