Yeehaw

Pure escapism

Ah, the dark, dreary and joyless days of winter. For some people, they may not be over. But here on the East Coast, we have some good news. While the cold (and seasonal depression ) may have turned us into mopey blobs with little to no energy or motivation, suddenly, we are experiencing hope. That hope comes in the form of sunshine. It comes in the form of outdoor happy hours and shedding our puffy down jackets, hats, and gloves. Finally, we can trek through the streets without discomfort. Movi…

A lot of people come from the Cole Sprouse school of weirdness. That is to say, they claim they're weird without really being weird at all. If you're lost, let me introduce you to the second-greatest quote from the series Riverdale . “In case you haven't noticed, I'm weird. I'm a weirdo. I don't fit it, and I don't... wanna fit in. Have you ever seen me without this stupid hat on?” -Jughead Jones, played by Cole Sprouse Of course, the greatest quote Riverdale has to offer is the following: “I d…

So pretty

Memes for the gifted and talented!

When you think about the Internet, what pops into your mind? The sound of a new email in your inbox? Falling into a deep, dark Wikipeda hole? Or do you start seeing memes dancing around your head?

Memes have become such an integral part of Internet culture that the two are practically tethered to each other in my mind. While it's a joy to laugh about memes and share them with fr…

Forget coffee

Breezy

No waiting around

They're free!

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…

Don't you just love going to weddings to celebrate someone's love on the dance floor with copious drinks? It's the best! Just kidding, I feel terrible. What a weekend. After the rehearsal dinner, the family yoga, the cocktail hour, and then of course the whole weddings shebang, I'm feeling pretty damn rough. Maybe it has to do with aging - we just don't have it in us to enjoy ourselves at a bacchanalian nuptial celebration after working for an entire week. But maybe it's more of an existentia l…

It shouldn't be controversial for me to say that we've been in an era of absurdist humor for some time now. I don't know where this taste for silly & goofy comedy originated, but Gen Z and Millennials can't get enough of it. I can tell that absurdist humor has swept the nation because of the Netflix show I Think You Should Leave . It is a sketch comedy show starring and created by former SNL writer Tim Robbinson, and it is just as wacky as you could imagine. Ask any Millennial or Gen Zer who th…
