2100TH ENTRY! THE BEST OF THE PREVIOUS 100!

Sunday, March 16, 2014

this entry brought to you by foo fighters, "my hero"

So, good news: I've actually been much better at keeping the page up to date for the last 100 entries. I still missed several weeks, but once I got on a roll I stuck to the schedule pretty well. Yay! Let's see if this next 100 can be uninterrupted. Here's hoping!. In the meantime, here are the best of the last 100 for you to enjoy. The best of the previous link can be read here, as always.

FUNNY/ RANDOM

Every year I come up with a list of Halloween costume ideas, and last year was no exception. Enjoy.

I'm not really into naked webcams, but sometimes if you indulge in them, you see some weird things. For example, a woman openly weeping.

You know what's fun? Coming up with hilarious Christmas song titles.

The People's Pope, Pope Francis, is an asshole, what with his message of good will toward your fellow man and helping the poor. How am I supposed to convert people to atheism with an attitude like that?

Speaking of cam girls, what do you do when you think one is super hot, but can't shake the feeling that she might be autistic?

This headline entry is short, but I genuinely find it to be one of the most hilarious concepts I have ever come up with. That coffee girl who is always smiling at you? She really, really wants you.

Listen, I support gay people and gay rights, it's really important to me. But there is something about every gay person's coming out story that bugs me.

For some inexplicable reason, some people don't understand how to play along when you ask them a hypothetical question.

You've had a friend who started dating someone, and then overnight completely became that person in every way, and it creeped you the fuck out. And then acted as if you were the problem.

Some women really, really enjoy man-on-man gay porn. If this person is your wife, dude, don't be weird about it. Just support her and her sexual fetishes.

SERIOUS/ TOPICAL

I knew this scumbag named Damien, and I was the reason his girlfriend broke up with him one time, and although he didn't give a shit about her he got super pissed at me and wanted to beat me up.

There's a post script to that-- my teenaged self never realized Damien's girlfriend liked me. Wish I could go back in time and correct that.

Up until 2013, there were literally no standards for health insurance, other the fact that you had to pay some amount to your customers, otherwise you couldn't be an insurance company. How stupid is that?

It's not just something I'm not into-- I passionately hate lying to your kids about the Santa myth, and I think it is weird and destructive.

Somehow, people pretend like being right in the middle politically is a virtue. This is bullshit.

If you, for some reason, hate selfies, you're some sort of crabby asshole. There's plenty of other legitimate things to hate.

Have you ever noticed that when man's men describe other man's men, it sounds super gay? I don't understand how that happens.

I've literally never told anyone this story before, not my friends who have known me for 20 years, not my mom, not my wife. And it involves Pablo Francisco.

I had a roommate who was a nightmare beyond ordinary roommates, and the thing is, I had warning signs before he moved in-- but they were all from crazy people, or people acting crazy.

The right worships Ayn Rand, but really, she should be antithetical to everything they believe in.

I don't know why, but I started to think about my first kiss, and it seemed like a compelling story to write, and when I was done, I was extremely happy with how it came out, all 6,896 words of it. Her name was Shelby, and you can read it here and here.

I also wrote some reviews, and you can read them if you like, a review for Frances Ha and a review for Room 237.
