You may always get lost, but at least you have memes to laugh about while you're trying to figure out where you are.

I was a bit of a whiner as a kid. I am outing myself. That said, my mother wasn't the most engaging parent. She sat at the same chair every day, chainsmoking and drinking Lipton tea while filling out her logic problem books that she bought at the stationery store. While I was a very imaginative (morbid, even) child, there were times when not even my own brain could keep me entertained. And it wasn't like I could turn on the TV. That wasn't allowed. So I'd whine to my mother that I was bored. “I…

Nothing like memes to take celebrities down a peg.

We live in a time where it seems like convenience is at the forefront of literally everything. Instead of taking a leisurely stroll to the farmer's market and taking in the sights and sounds of the neighborhood, people opt to use apps that will have another person do your shopping for you. Eating locally (and prohibitively expensively) never tasted so easy. Instead of spending your hard earned cash at local boutiques, book stores, and thrift shops when you need a gift for someone special - or s…

It's been a pretty wild week on Twitter. Whenever a momentous event happens, it's as though the already spastic site goes into beast mode. By that we mean that it seems everyone has an opinion or a joke (or maybe seven) regarding the matter, and they're frothing at the mouth to share them. This was definitely the case following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, which happened as the Don’t Worry Darling drama and discourse was ramping up. Fortunately for us, there are people tweeting material tha…

"Why can't we all just get along?" This question is usually reserved for situations that really aren't that simple. For example, feuding countries, frenemies, siblings, and other divided parties who definitely won't just shake on it and change their squabbly ways. Most recently, I've wondered why Lord of the Rings devotees can't just stop warring or at least why they don't leave one another alone. Ever since The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power was announced, open-minded fans excited for m…

The Emmy Awards always seem to come out of the blue. They aren't situated during the tried and true Awards Season TM , making them way less of a hassle to watch. It's also a lot more likely that you've seen one of the Emmy nominated shows versus the prestige Oscar-Bait dramas that get spit out for us to chew up every December. This years Emmy Awards had some really nice moments. Sheryl Lee Ralph gave an incredibly moving speech after winning Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy. Goodburger stars…

Not to be corny, but I have an incredibly corny story about a high school teacher who always told us to “dominate the day.” He was my world history teacher and a football coach, usually a red flag. If you've never been to a school with incompetent coach teachers who were unnecessarily cruel to unathletic children, I'm guessing you're not from the South. This guy was not like that at all, and was really kind to all of the students. He was a super funny guy. I don't know of any other teacher that…

It seems like everyone and their mom, and their grandpa, and their cousin, is getting into birdwatching . “Birding” if you're nasty. The hobby is pretty much as wholesome as they come. It incorporates all of our favorite things: animals, the great outdoors, competition, and sometimes even socializing. It's also one of the most accessible activities a person can get into. Even in the craziest, busiest, and steeliest metropolises, there are birds to be seen in parks and even nesting on towering s…

Why set several alarms when you can just hit snooze every 5 minutes for three extra hours?

Take 'em

Embrace your inner basic!

It's all about the rush

The state of LinkedIn is grim

So smooth

It doesn't seem that people have much reason to get angry
