Generational stereotypes of the past
As you can see, friction between the young and older people is as old as History itself but the cartoon is a funny take even if it’s inaccurate. Knocking people’s codpieces while wearing those funky shoes that can be several … Continue reading
It’s true, smoking does stunt your growth
I guess Patkowski took the job with the Polish cabinet after not landing the lead role in Home Alone 5.
Cool bridge for my D&D game
The back of the package is better to show off on what’s inside! Oddly, they didn’t include a troll with three goats. I cannot wait to deploy this in my game because there’s at least one really awesome long-term campaign … Continue reading
Design failure, April 2021 edition
I’m sure the struggle to make a creative logo ended with the best of intentions having tried to make many myself. However, this was one of the few times I would’ve listened to a focus group or run it by … Continue reading
Alternate paint job for the Y-Wing
In the pretty X-Wing miniatures game, the neutral Scum & Villainy faction fly fighters similar to what the Rebellion has, namely Y-Wings and Z-95 Headhunters but they get different paint jobs. With the first edition of the game, the set only came … Continue reading
Twenty-two years at Apple
It won’t be long before my employment at Apple exceeds the duration between my birth and graduating from university, the latter action saying I’m no longer a probationary adult. Like last year, it’s a bit of a pisser thanks to … Continue reading

Back to normal completely!
With shot number two earlier this week, I could follow through on the second part I wanted to do…cut my hair back to what I normally look like. It had about 13 months and the place I used to go … Continue reading
So far the Snyder Cut is rather weird
Jennifer split for Padre to have a long weekend with her mom, daughter and friend so I decided to use the time to finally watch the long awaited Snyder Cut of the terrible Justice League. Hmm. I wasn’t expecting this cameo … Continue reading

RIP James Hampton
James was a Brian Dennehy character actor. You recognize his face. You remember him being in a couple movies and/or TV shows yet you can’t name the poor guy. And maybe that was just fine with James because he had … Continue reading

RIP Anne Beatts
Anne is a name well-known to comedy nerds and maybe she rings a bell if you watched the Netflix movie A Futile and Stupid Gesture; she was portrayed by Natasha Lyonne. As per the movie, Anne got started as a writer … Continue reading
Yes (Again)! Now to wait two weeks!
At last! I received my second dose of Moderna to get me out of the woods. Austin’s rollout for the second round was pretty different. Not only did I have to drive further south, I had to stay in my … Continue reading
Happy Birthday Post-It Notes®
What makes Romy & Michele’s lie about inventing this product even funnier is that it made its debut in 1980 so Post-It Notes were already conspicuous when the duo graduated from high school in 1987. A big thank you to … Continue reading
Save Yourselves!
This indie comedy was one of the Pandemic’s many victims which is a bummer. Alamo Drafthouse would’ve treated Save Yourselves! really well, especially with the pre-show snipe, alien-invasion stories go back to HG Wells. I’m grateful Hulu got the streaming rights … Continue reading
1841: President Harrison dies
William Harrison started off as the oldest person to be elected president in American history, 68 (a spring chicken compared to St. Reagan, Orange Foolius & Grampa’ Brunch) and the first Whig. Within a month, being the first to die … Continue reading
A Caturday of recovery
It’s good to see Isis being relaxed and hanging out in the open again. Last weekend she was introduced to Jennifer’s cats and it wasn’t as smooth as Aggie’s time. She wandered about, then just spent the majority of her … Continue reading
