There are a couple of go-to phrases you can use when you feel you may have crossed the line when making a joke.
How do you know when you’ve gone too far?  For one thing, if you’re amongst a group of people  — you make a joke, then silence follows.
Before that awkward silence lingers on for [...]

Strange things have been happening the last couple of weeks.  By this I mean I’ve found unopened food just laying on the sidewalk.
Last week I found an unopened Snickers bar just sitting there on the sidewalk.  I picked it up, and decided to give it to the first homeless person I came across.  Surely enough, [...]

Of course, this is going to make me come across as highly insensitive, but whatever.  Deal with it.
I make fun of people.  I make fun of things. I make fun of races, nationalities, religions, dumb people, fat people, skinny people, people from France.  Hell, I don’t even exclude myself.  If you take yourself too seriously, [...]

I suppose this isn’t the most timely post, with hockey being over now, but randomositiness is a big part of what you get here.
Anyway, since pretty much the beginning of time, there has been debate when it comes to whether or not fighting should be a part of hockey.

Now consider this scenario:  Your friend accidentally causes a massive flood in your apartment, damaging almost every single one of your belongings.
What would piss [...]

If I could, I would stretch Fresh & Easy’s free samples into an entire meal.   Actually, I’ve never met a single other human that doesn’t like free samples.
If we taste something and enjoy it, our instincts tell us that we want more of it.  However, in “society” it’s often frowned upon to go back for [...]

The other night for one reason or another, I found myself watching videos of cats and babies on YouTube.  Not separately of course, these were videos of cats and babies, together.  These two things combined form a deadly combination of cuteness!
Despite many of the horrible acts our species has committed, and will continue to commit [...]

Why are you making fun of advancing technology?  What did it ever do to you? (Besides help create bombs, machines guns, and biochemical warfare).  Keep in mind I’m referring to consumer technology from here on out.
I remember when we all first started hearing about the iPad.   It was hip to make fun of it, especially [...]

The other night I caught a glimpse of Celebrity Apprentice, and I noticed that Rod Blagojevich, a former politician, was one of the contestants.  I’m sure many of you already knew this.
