The Tito’s/Tanqueray thing reminds me of this time back in my mid-20s when I went to this party my then-roommate’s friends were throwing. I didn’t really know the people at this party, but there was free booze, so whatever. I’m making random small talk with this dude who, it became quickly apparent, was a total…

Invariably, it’s the ones where I get hired.

Gee, I wonder why people who work and live in heavily military communities often have an unfavorable opinion of the average servicemember, while people 500 miles from the nearest base whose closest relation to the military is their stepbrother’s nephew who did 18 months in the Coast Guard and got an other than…

I am 100% with you on this one. Lilly is bright and happy and screams “Summer! The beach!” And you know what, after the last year I’ve had, especially this long, terrible winter that has made living in chronic pain even more terrible than normal, if some slightly expensive shift dresses with ridiculously colourful,…

She is fake as a Kardashian and full of shit, saw this episode of the VIEW, [why did I watch this], but it was the "on message" - 'As a feminist' blah blah de blah blah, she called the apparent high priestess of political correctness - Ms Lena Dunham and asked her to help craft her manifesto. You know, she is not new…

Asshole,

I met John Ritter in a bar and he asked me to hold his beer. Then he immediately yelled, "BARTENDER! THIS KID IS GETTING DRUNK OVER HERE!!", which made everyone in the bar turn and look, and me blush like crazy (I was 11). Then he bought me a water... which, errm.. was free. Because water. Also because open bar..…
