I could spend my days doing a grumpy old man bit, sure. But there's just something natural about unleashing these goofy thoughts that should never be taken seriously. I could run for office.
Me: I need a new phone.
Donald, I've been here ten years. Have I ever called in sick or missed a shift once? I've worked Christmas Eve and Thanksgiving. I don't know where my boy is. He's gone. I don't know if I'm ever gonna see him again...if he's hurt. I need this phone, and two weeks advance.

Stranger Things ending was well done, imo. I think with popularity comes the couyons who only jump on trendy topics to tear down and criticize. Were they even fans from the beginning?

My cat will attack my ankles and then try to snuggle up for pets on the same day. Same day? What am I saying? The same two minutes!

A stranger in a waiting room is holding a book I like and I'd like to say something to them. I find people these days to be so guarded that a simple friendly gesture sparks anxiety and, the next thing you know, the person with the book you liked is curled up in the floor rocking back and forth.

It's hard to drift off to sleep when my stomach sounds like a fish tank.

No more booin' or hissin', no dissin'.
Just mom n dad kissin'.
I wasn't efficient at going fishin'.
I'd rather be wishin' for fish in the kitchen.
These rhymes I be dishin' like plates of nutrition.
Or bowls of gumbo, it's tradition.
It's what we'll be missin' when we're reminiscin'.

This morning, I had a breakfast consisting of vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup and black coffee. Why?
Because I wanted to. It's a life quality issue. I regret nothing.

It just dawned on me that every time I take my dog outside, he's a flight risk.

While the lukewarm, weak, coffee at the tire place separates the men from the boys, I can only babysit so long. Hey, guys, do y'all have anything stronger in the back?

One time, during a class field trip to a farm, I jumped off a hay bale truck onto an unsuspecting cow. First, I didn't know cows could run that fast. Second, I broke my ankle after getting thrown off. Third, and most importantly, to become old and wise, first you have to be young and stupid.

When you hear folks say, "Nobody in their right mind would be up this early unless they had to go to work," they're talking about me. #RetiredLife

Sometimes, after hot meals after hot meals, I find myself blowing on ice cream. Better safe than sorry, I guess.

I looked up how to make a pie crust from scratch to use some pumpkin filling Mrs. Nino brought home, for a pie.
Turns out, making a pie crust from scratch, um, sucks.

Ken Jeong could try to be MORE annoying with a mic during the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, but he would not be successful. Top-tier level annoyance there.

I can tolerate the political lies and propaganda, but some of this Stranger Things slander is on my last nerve.

Nostalgia is like, "Hey, remember that road trip on the way back from the beach when you were little?" Cousins in the back of the truck bed. No seatbelts, no SEATS even. I'm slamming against the sides on a turn.

Say it louder for the people in the back?
Nah. The people in the back are doing their own thing. If they cared what I had to say, they'd be in the front. They'll just have to miss out. I had some prizes, too. Too bad for the dumb people in the back.

If I post something that strikes a nerve, just know that I didn't necessarily have YOU in mind when I posted it. But, the person standing behind you knows what I'm talking about.

It's always fun to give insight about the novel to those who only saw the film.
Alright. So Vito Corleone? First, you think he’s just an Italian immigrant, but he's not. He's a cyborg. Yes, a robot. This book was light years ahead of its time.

For anyone who is sick right now, I'm telling you to "Get Well Soon."
No, really. Just do it because you'll feel better once you do.

I make jokes now.
Mainly, because when I was 17, I worked for my uncle roofing houses in the heat of Louisiana summer. THAT WAS NO JOKE.

Growing up, I was always interested in words, phrases, and their meanings. For instance, "Hey, y'all! Wah-chis'" translated to "I'm about to break something!" (The lamp, the transmission, a foot)

I'm puzzled as to why people keep posting about Welcome to Derry and comparing it to Stranger Things. They may as well compare apples to oranges and then proudly claim their preference between the two. It's weird.
