Hey, ladyfriends. Ever get a request like this? I mean totally out of the blue. I’m not talking about that guy you’ve been flirting with for a couple months back and forth. No. This guy’s just a random friend of a friend you thought was “good people”. But then he comes up with this nonsense. Asking for snaps of ya in skivvies he’s planning to purchase. Now, before you all.. Read More
This just in: mansplaining isn’t a thing unless you let it be
Mansplaining (if you’re not familiar), is this thing that happens when pompous men condescendingly lecture femmes about a give topic. It could be about anything from politics to how to properly grill dead animals. But the idea remains: they talk over you, they’re rude, they’re loud, they’re derisive. Whatever. And, obviously, not all dudes do it – but the ones who do can be annoying. Which makes me wanna ask.. Read More
Brain-channel epilogue
As I published my brainhack article… I realized I’ve forgotten something (ironic?). What to avoid. For example, you may have noticed how on that list, I haven’t included the likes of “screw (alone or not), stuff your face, or have a Netflixathon”. Worry not. I didn’t forget those items. They’ve been intentionally left out only because I’ve done the field research in this area and can successfully conclude the following:.. Read More
10 anti-anxiety channels for your brain remote.
You know that feeling you get when you hear the OnDemand menu or DVD intro on loop? But you can’t find the remote to change it? So you just have to keep hearing it like some prisoner-of-war camp torture method? That’s kinda how anxiety-inducing thoughts are for me. Same annoying thing running circles in my head. And just like the jailers with the war prisoners, it’s usually doing that because.. Read More
Fresh pressed high fructose corn syrup, anyone?
I guess I was a few months late when I posted this and the comment reply: (Greg’s default is a nice retrospective foreshadowing to the pranky skittle-shake which you’ll see in a sec.) ‘cause Jimmy Kimmel’d already beat me to it back in January, apparently. And, yes, it’s everything I’d dreamed of. I’ll be honest. We health nuts can get pretty annoying. In retrospect, even that post I made back.. Read More
A Rose by any other name still shouldn’t throw profeshade on Twitter
If only I were famous, I’d never have to deal with the problems peons do anymore. Like calories, aging, or getting fired for shit talking about my fellow professionals on Twitter. Right? Even though she literally got fired for doing that last one, we’re gonna employ the lovely Rose McGowan as a public cautionary tale example of how no one’s free from that. Even in the celebrity realm. ’cause homegirl.. Read More
College creates “texting” lane. And our freeways should too.
“What an idiot,” I thought as I shade-threw at the girl in the lane next to me who was texting on a phone sheathed in a neon green otter box. “Way too easy for a cop to see,” I continued judging as I looked back down to finish my own text message her idiocy had interrupted. This is the part where the “I do it too” part of the joke.. Read More
Workaround to Gmail’s crappy unsend feature
What a load of crap this new email “unsend” feature is. If you’re lost already, don’t worry. I am too. Because when I heard that Gmail had finally catered to one of the interweb’s most frequently entered search engine keyword combos (third, I assume, right after “hentai” and “goats in pajamas” #educatedguesses), I thought exactly three things: 1.) Don’t they already have a shitty version of that at the moment?.. Read More
New dude birth control Gandalfs your vas deferens.
So we’re officially only a couple years off from male birth control. And… I’m still not sure I’m sold. So let’s talk about this. I mean, the idea seems great. In theory. Why should I have to be the one to pollute the interstitial freeways of the meat puppet I live in with side effect inducing hormones? Bishes be cray as it is. Why exacerbate the scenario by adding more.. Read More
Bellybutton challenge: jokes on U.S.?
I thought things couldn’t get worse than the cinnamon and chili pepper challenges. But this latest finger-navel reach-around business somehow manages to be a universe and a half worth of worse. If it’s new to you, here’s an Asian celeb doing it: And this show off:
