Cat Fight

And this, my friends, is why boxers wear gloves. That one dude’s arm is soooo gonna be sore. I also don’t recommend fighting on the stairs. (Special thanks to @brauhze for finding this and thinking of me.)

Flight Fight Sports

It’s Google’s fault. I typed in “fight sports” and they asked, in that oh-so-superior voice, “Did you perhaps mean FLIGHT sports, Hon?” No, you morons. I might misspell Hervé Villechaize but I’ve GOT this one, thanks. Sheez. Anyway, I posted the error to Facebook, and suddenly a Flight Fight meme was born. Matt, the joker, [...]

Thumbnail image for How Boxing is Better than 11 Other Sports and Hobbies

Boxing is like playing underwater chess in a swimming pool filled with sharks. You have to keep moving, it’s hard to concentrate, and you feel like you just can’t get enough air. But I love it anyway, and whenever someone asks me why I can’t take up a more reasonable sport I ask them what [...]

Bad Bad Poetry

Thumbnail image for Bad Bad Poetry

Bad poetry in 7th grade is like the plague; it sweeps inevitably through (probably related to poor hygiene) and takes a monstrous toll; the survivors recover, bury the dead, and try to face life once again. This heinous sheet of notebook paper should have been buried to prevent future outbreaks, but my mother kept it, [...]

Balloon Heads

What the hell is going on here? Are they being punished? Are they protesting… something? Whatever it is, it’s almost certainly going to get them into Harvard. I don’t know why, but like Counselor Troi I sense it.

Who doesn’t love a Wack-O-Wax mustache? It’s fun to say, even if you already ate your ‘stache: wack-o-wax, wack-o-wax, wack-o-wax. They are reputedly grape in flavor, but I’m gonna say… um, okay, we can call it “grape.” Sure. But more importantly, Wack-O-Wax’s Mr. Stache goes with every outfit for every occasion! And at 99 cents [...]

The Maker was the only one of my three who wanted a pacifier, and in the long tradition of babies and their pacifiers, he called his “bops.” He was happiest with one in his mouth, a backup in his hand, and even more in pockets, or otherwise within reach. When he was old enough to [...]
