Not that I frequent gay bars all that often, but I’ve found myself inside them before. In fact, it’s not uncommon at all for the male bartenders at these gay bars to be shirtless while serving drinks.
Despite this being very gay, I’m not against shirtless bartenders because of any homophobic reasons.
Even though female bartenders often [...]
Since late August I’ve been on a bit of a health and fitness kick. Honestly, it’s more than a “kick” at this point. It’s my fucking lifestyle.
Sure my diet isn’t perfect, and I don’t work out 3 hours every day, but I think if I stick pretty close to what I’ve been doing, and remain [...]
It seems more and more people I know these days have either have ran, or have decided to run a marathon. I think it’s awesome that people take on personal challenges. Many folks decide to run in support of a good cause, too.
Having said all that, I have some criticisms. First of all, let us [...]
Within the past several years, it seems the movement to decriminalize marijuana has gained momentum. When I say this, I’m including the whole concept of medical marijuana as well.
In my current home state of California, I’m proud to say that medical marijuana is legal.
Similarly to obtaining any prescription medication, to obtain marijuana, you must have [...]
Even a reasonably unrefined creature such as myself can acknowledge the uselessness of a 2-in-1 shampoo/conditioner. Nobody likes those.
Epsom salt is a different story. It’s way more than a 2 in 1. When used through soaking it can soothe muscle pains. Drink it mixed in water you have a laxative for constipation relief. Those [...]
I bet you have a few friends like this — people that love to post photos of their injuries on Facebook. Is this to show off personal toughness? Do people have an obsession with their ailments? I don’t speak for everyone, but it just seems unnecessary to share pics of your gross [...]
I once brought up the question, “Why is there no people food?”

I still haven’t really found out the answer to that question, but it seems to me the aforementioned items in the title of this post are pretty safe bets for intake of generic, yet consistent nutrition. Although vitamins aren’t really “food” —- looking at [...]
I know very little about taking care of babies. In fact, I’ve never even changed a baby’s diaper before. At this point in my life, I have little desire to do this anyway.
After observing society and watching sitcoms, I see that baby humans have very weak necks, and if you don’t support their heads while [...]
There’s no shortage of things that piss me off, and seeing commercials for prescription medication is something that definitely is somewhere near the top of that list. Perhaps this is primitive thinking, but if I am sick or have some kind of medical problem, I should see a doctor.
The doctor diagnoses, then prescribes. Admittedly, I’m [...]
Especially these days, affordable medical insurance can be tough to come by. For me, I try to avoid doctor visits unless I absolutely have to go. If a problem can be diagnosed and solved without getting a doctor involved, I’m all for it.
Usually this means asking my mom, the Internet, or complete strangers on the [...]
