If you’re planning to tool around town with three pounds of cocaine, there are certainly worse ways of disguising it than making it look like a great big pregnant belly. On paper, at least. Unfortunately, life isn’t lived on paper. If it were, it wouldn’t matter that you drive like an idiot. Or that you …

Match The One-Hit Wonder To Their Follow-Up Song, Probably Do Better Than Steve
When I was a kid it used to annoy the crap out of me when a band was described as a one-hit wonder even though I knew damn well that they had another song! I considered it a point of pride when I could name that song when no one else could. So with that …

How Did He Get An Uber That Fast?
More than once in these pages I’ve mentioned that something said by George Carlin wasn’t just a bit to me, but also a life lesson. This, however, is not one of those things. If only I could have explained that to Christopher Everson here before everything went all to hell for him. On April 11, …
There’s No Door Between Us. Stop Lying!
I enjoy these Ryan George videos because he takes things that I’ve often spent far too much time wondering about and then actually makes something useful out of them because he’s, like, funny and stuff. Today, it’s the guy who invented the joke.

Fill My Cone Up To Here
I like the Tragically Hip well enough, but nowhere near as much as most people seem to. they’ve put out a good bit of stuff which, to my ear at least, kinda sucks, actually. Just because a song references Canada in some form doesn’t automatically make it good. This has been unpopular hot takes with …
Ok, But Why?
I love these old people. They seem so fun. And like them, I also enjoy the word “thooter”. It and “bop” were the only ones I was totally clueless on. It’s also comforting to know that even the kids think “cheugy” sounds stupid.
I Hate Them Plenty Already, But There’s Always Room For More
Remember the other day when I said, basically, that TKO is a terrible company filled with shameless assholes who only care about money and Donald Trump? This video is all of that laid out in great detail. Don’t let the 92 minute length or the focus on boxing scare you off, because if you care …

A Spiceknot Sounds Like A Sex Position, Doesn’t It?
Who doesn’t need a Slipknot and Spice Girls mashup on a Saturday morning? Nobody, that’s who! The “Hard to Handle” solo is also a nice touch. Music used in this mashup: Spice Girls – Wannabe Slipknot – Sulfur The Black Crowes – Hard to Handle
