Theme Change!

New year, new look? Unfortunately, yes.  Two months ago, I went through the trauma of losing the Contempt WordPress theme. I eventually found a new theme that was very much in my wheelhouse: Big Brother. But, I hadn’t received an update in two months, and a niggling little part of me wanted to know why. …

Top 4 Illuminati Hangover Cures

As I look around the office, all I see are people with their heads down on their desks, groaning at the slightest noise.  But today, on the mother of all hangover days, they’re also losing their breakfast every fifteen minutes.  It’s a chorus of yak. You’d think that being all-knowing and all-powerful would mean that…

Resolutions for Failure

It’s that time of year again, where every schmuck from your dry cleaner to the person who licks your toilet asks you what your resolutions are for next year.   You know that you’ll never keep these resolutions, if only because they’re impossible to keep.  And besides, they’re totally lame.  So, since my mommy taught me…

Soupy Lies

Condensed canned soup is a gloopy, disgusting glob of ick.  Apply some heat and it becomes edible, but only barely.  I mean, have you seen the little bits of “chicken” we put in the “chicken” noodle?  It’s pigeon gristle.  You eat flying rats when you get sick, you pig. Nothing is more of scam in…

Upstaged by a Pickle

I’m not going to mince words here, folks: I’m really angry with a pickle right now.  For years, R&D has been working on making a penis that can sing and we were upstaged by a pickle… years ago. That’s right, I’m talking about the Yodeling Pickle.  No one can quite understand the frustration of being…

Gas Station Alibi

You never know when you’re going to be questioned for murder.  I get questioned all the time.  The FBI has talked to me so often that I have a reserved space at like three branch offices.  I have an interrogation punch card.  One more and I can have Arby’s order a hit on someone for…
