Arguments

You read a story, you rip it to shreds. You comment at the bottom of the page, you call the writer an idiot. You’re right. He’s wrong. Ah, the beauty of the Internet. Everyone’s a genius. Except for one little thing – it’s a lot easier to be right when no one argues back.

We think it’s time someone else got the last word. We think it’s time you matched wits with someone your own size. So come on, argue with us. Pick a topic. Prove us wrong. Do that, and you’ll not only get your own Guideline on the wall, but you’ll have eternal bragging rights on our site. As long as you keep winning that is. All we ask is that you keep it smart. Make a point. And don’t waste our time.

The Hot Room

The number one way to guarantee I won’t pay ANY attention to what you’re saying is put me in a hot room. The room that isn’t ridiculously unbearable but just too hot. Hot enough to make me sweat. Hot enough to generate some swampiness. Hot enough that no matter what you say, I’ll be thinking of “how hot this goddamn room is.” Keep reading »

Soak it in Soccer Fans.

For 3 years and 11 months, no one cares about your sport. They make fun of it. Call it boring. Tell you how horrible it is compared to a real, American sport. But then comes the World Cup. The one month where people actual tolerate how awful soccer is to act like they care. And, most of all, you finally get to act like an insider.

Do you think anyone ever said out loud or to his/her self, “You know, I think Saved By The Bell really hit its stride when Tori joined the cast.”

That’s all.

The Thing About Texting

I like texting. I’m a fan of anything that means I don’t have to make a phone call. But. The problem is, I don’t think I’m any good at it. In fact, most times the whole thing is pretty stressful to me. Here’s why:

An Open Letter to Shaving Cream Canister Manufacturers

Dear Shaving Cream Canister Manufacturers,

It’s 2010, there has to be some sort of engineering solution to that little bit of extra shaving cream that comes out after you finish squirting it in your hand. Its awful. I’ve tried rinsing it off… but more just sneaks out. It sucks. It turns the whole lid into a sick mess. So, please. Work on that. You can even use it in advertising. Like Coors Light with all their stupid gimmicks. This could be yours.

Forever Yours,

Reinforcing the Rev

Every single time I hear a motorcycle blast its engine as it goes past a restaurant, I inevitably hear someone yell, “COOL!!” Every time. Without fail. Sometimes it’s not “cool.” Sometimes it’s just a big yell of some sort. But every single time. It’s like a go-to joke.
