'Exposure' doesn't pay the bills.

Telling them like it is!

Who says that crime can't be funny? There are so many boring arrests made every day that journalists can't help but take notice when an amusing one comes about. There's some guy who, at present, is looking through arrest records to find the hard-hitting story of an extremely wacky guy. And boy howdy, do they find them. Not all news stories with wacky headlines have to do with arrests. There are so many strange daily incidents that are funny, inspiring, or just plain stupid that have nothing to…

People who don't go to standup shows think that standup comedy is an incredibly cool art form. These fools believe that only the most hilarious and intelligent people can do standup, and anybody who does it must be a comedic genius. Luckily for them, they are 100% incorrect! Standup comedy shows are breeding grounds for humiliation and failure. Most of the people who do standup are not very good at it. If you ever want a surefire way to feel good about yourself, go to an open mic in a midsized…

It's true: Not everyone can be a brain genius. But despite what Rick and Morty fans might tell you, IQs don't mean much if you don't do anything with them. Take me, for example. My mother made the mistake of telling me my IQ when I was younger (it's the same as Snoop Dogg's, do with that what you will). She had high hopes for me and placed me in gifted programs. Unfortunately, due to my rebellious nature, I ended up dashing her dreams and getting straight Bs throughout my education. Fast forwar…

It's a well-known fact that January is probably the worst month to be a gym member . While it's never fun to share equipment (or space, or smells) with a host of strangers, the discomfort increases tenfold at the beginning of the year, when amateurs sign up for new memberships as part of their New Year's resolutions. The presence of these newbies can be jarring, and, in some cases, can actually influence people to stop going to the gym for a while. They'll wait to return until the influx subsid…

How's that new kitchen looking mom?

Well, if he wasn't going to be remembered as Carrot Boy before, he certainly is now; there's no walking it back from this one, folks. As commenters have suggested, if he had merely approached the conversation as if it was an old inside joke rather than something that he was harboring deep resentment over, he could have won his old classmates over and finally been rid of his demons in one swift stroke. Instead, the monkey's paw has curled—and the prophecy comes to pass. He is now, and forever wi…

Oh boy did that manager learn their lesson.

It seems like everyone and their mom is in therapy these day s, and when you think about how terrible everything has felt for the past few years, it's definitely for the best. Therapy, while arguably a luxury, is an incredibly important tool for people who may be having a difficult time coping with mental illness or the pressures of simply being alive. Unfortunately, not all therapists are created equal. While seeking help for my own issues (beyond bullies who are telling me to quit my job here…

As purveyors of entertainment media, we know it can be a hustle to churn out timely, holiday-related content around the end of the year. Finding content that has to do with Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanzaa, or even peoples' contempt for the holidays can be tough especially when we're working abbreviated schedules. It's only natural that some well-meaning people would manage to muck this up, and it seems that one television news channel has won 2022's award for “Best Seasonal Fail of the Year". Twit…

They're so special.

Mother & father of the year

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…

ASMR probably doesn't fall under the category of “Pumpkin Spice” vibes

The parking drama never ends.
