I’m positive that one of the surest measures of life (dis)satisfaction has to be the amount of time one spends thinking about winning the lottery. Every day on my way home from work I pass a billboard advertising Powerball. And I have to say that my productivity in that grey cubicle is being severely impacted […]

Super awkward moment at Improv class last night. Let me set the stage: We are being taught by this really nice, knowledgeable, and funny guy named John*. John’s a medium-set blond guy with a shaved head. He’s a really helpful, positive personality who knows how to correct you without making you feel stupid, but also […]

Here’s a post I found in the Rants and Raves section of Craigslist (which, as you might expect, is a bizarre and stupid political screamfest wasteland):

Hanging out with other people’s families reminds me that things could be so much worse. Damn, that […]

My roommate Desiree and I have been living together for about 4 months now. I have to say one of the greatest pleasures of living with her is that she hasn’t been exposed to nearly the amount of pop culture that I have. I introduced her to The Daily Show, which we now watch regularly. […]

Oh my god! I’ve just witnessed the most intense outburst of weather I’ve ever seen. It was just drizzling a little bit, and in the space of literally 1 second, it went from a few raindrops to the heaviest rain I’ve ever seen in my entire life. COMPLETELY instantaneous and without warning. Branches were being […]
