In this blog’s (much) younger days (as in, 7 years ago), I wrote about ridiculous advertising practices. In that post, I mused about how ironic it was that I was writing a post slamming various advertising tactics when we had just gotten finished approving the final draft of our own very first advertising campaign. And … More Badvertising Part II
I wrote this on my cell phone (in the iPhone’s Notes app) while dozing off on the plane ride home on Saturday night. I thought it was kinda funny and maybe even a little interesting, so I’ll share it with y’all… 😉 So I’m buzzed on Benadryl on a plane. It’s an awesome way … More Comfortably numb [this is my child-free brain on Benadryl; any questions?]
It seems like just yesterday that I wrote one of these posts, a roundup of various websites that I’ve found myself drawn to or otherwise visiting/bookmarking lately, which could either be fairly well-known or virtually-unknown sites. (But, in fact, it wasn’t just yesterday that I wrote Part 8 of this unintended series; it’s actually been … More Websites that rule – Part 9
For most of the people who fly relatively often (at least a few times per year), there’s a certain etiquette that one makes every attempt to abide by in such close, cramped, and tightly-federally-regulated quarters. There is also a corresponding set of Dreaded Behaviors in these same close, cramped quarters (such as the 5-year-old sitting … More Don’t be That Guy: Airplane Travel Edition
Today, I feel ambitious enough to tackle a heavy-hitting subject. Normally I don’t write about the stereotypical hot-button issues because not because they’re polarizing (I’ve never been afraid of a scholarly debate) but because they’ve become cliché issues. But hey…it’s Sunday, my partner and cats are sleeping and my “tia loca” is watching cute Facebook-embedded … More File under: Controversial
Elections might be a symbol of freedom and all (and arguably our last real leftover patriotic custom), but they sure do bring out the worst in people. They pit friend against friend and sister against sister (except in my case, where my sister and I tend to agree on almost everything in this realm, much … More Angels and Democrats
Facebook is one of those things (sorry Prof Howard) that I love to hate. I pick it apart and douse it with flames, but at the same time, I can’t pry myself from it. It’s not a compulsive addiction, nor is it a morbid curiosity like a bad traffic accident. It’s a combination of longing, semi-stalking … More All in all it’s just another post on my wall
My how time flies. I took a nap earlier (to the tune of 3 hours), so I’m trying to run off some spare energy, such that I might sleep tonight. FunFact: My only inkling that I was engaged in such a nap is when I realized I was looking for “Rainbow” settings on my stereo. … More Websites that rule – Part 6
But in hindsight, I sure as hell might have. You see, I wasn’t ever going to make use of that particular organ anyway, so it was just taking up space without even paying any rent. Not that I’m implying that I rent out my body. Okay, moving on. Back to the uterus. It’s gone. See … More They don’t have going-away parties for uteruses
Remember that little ditty about the kudos and the smackdowns from last year? That was the post where I gave credit where credit was due (i.e. to good entities for doing something right) and called out the entities who were acting like idiots. Well, I thought I’d give an encore. Because, you know, I’ve got … More Halos & pitchforks: Round 2
