No bits

Hello, internet explorers. Is it just me, or is anyone else having a harder time than usual grappling with their internet addiction? I kind of have some theories as to why. You see, at least here in the Northeast, things are getting a wee bit cold. They are also (sadly) getting a whole lot darker. Just a few days ago I was walking home at just past five, and it was basically dark as night. It was more than a bit alarming, especially as someone who has to work in an office all throughout the dre…

Roll for memes.

So productive

Bit odd innit?

Devious

My attention span lasts exactly as long as this list of memes, anyway.

Intelligence is fluid, and baby, my brain is extremely dry right now. I find it extremely funny when adults go around touting their high IQ scores from tests they took as prepubescent boy geniuses. I honestly believe there is no such thing as static, unchanging intellect. Being smart is something that you work at every day for your entire life, and as my Lyft driver from last Thursday said, “if you don't use it, you lose it.” The constant

Yikes.

There's no rule against using both hands to put on lip balm

As human beings, we tend to project human emotions and attitudes onto animals. This concept is called anthropomorphism , and even though it's not scientifically sound, it's still fun to do. In my anthropomorphic opinion, cats embody a laissez-faire attitude, appearing to be unamused and uninterested in the antics of people. Dogs are kind of the opposite.

Those methods are all well and good, but if you really want to make an impression, sharing disturbing, unsettling , or weird facts is the ultimate tactic. Learning those facts and really honing their delivery isn't hard. Especially when you have these Skeletor Facts a…

I was never a person of the horse girl experience. That might come as a surprise because I grew up in Texas and everybody know that kids in Texas ride horses and cattle to school. But alas, I could never muster the earnestness and sensitivity that lives inside the heart of every horse girl. Horse girls are a social category that extends through the generations. Every one of us, no matter our age, definitely went to elementary school with a girl who loved horses and could not properly socialize…

Lots of parents like to brag about how smart their children are. These parents are all over Twitter, spouting dubious claims about their children's intelligence, their IQs, and even jotting down full quotes to impress netizens with their offspring. One of the best examples has got to be the one from @hinxminx, which before its deletion, read as follows: “'Everyone dies one day. Everyone. Even wolves. But not books. Not words. Words don't die.” - my son, 3, who is a lot smarter than I am ' Prett…
