Everything seems bad. So I will instead focus all my energy on finding a reasonably priced 11x14 photo enlarging easel.

I know I’m going to jinx it by typing this, but I’ve had the same TiVo for 10+ years and it still works great.

I going to tell my children to bury me with it.

I have been singing this song to my toddler for the last 2+ years as a lullaby. I am very tired of singing this song.

And yet, every time the video of this performance comes across my feed, I watch it. It’s so great.
This They Might Be Giants TONIGHT SHOW performance of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from 1990 remains firmly lodged in my noggin thanks to the Tonight Show Band's full commitment and Doc Severinsen's incredible trumpeting... It took an already great song and made it transcendent.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

One year my aunt didn’t make mashed potatoes which resulted in my grandfather repeatedly asking “where are the god damn potatoes?” through all of dinner.

Good morning!

Why yes, I am the freelancer.

Did I complete my security awareness training module?

No, I ignored that email since I’m not a full-time employee.

Oh, I see.

Contractors are now required to complete those as well now.

Last year a pest control guy told us we could have a flying squirrel in our attic.

We honestly thought he was messing with us.

Trying to get a toddler to take a shit is truly the most maddening thing I’ve done in my life.

The pioneer in digital video recording has officially ceased selling its DVR.

TiVo changed my life, and cloud DVRs will never match its precision and user-friendliness. It's the best piece of consumer electronics I've ever used.

When I was a kid there was a man standing outside the Art Institute of Chicago and told us the turtles got their names because the creators sat across the street eating lunch and saw the names on along the top of the building.
One of my favorite fun facts is why the TMNT are named after artists (it’s because the type of turtle they are is a “painted turtle”). I told my nephew about this and he immediately replied that there should be a Bob Ross turtle. So rather than explain the renaissance movement to him, I-

Moseyed over to Facebook to see how a friend of a friend who is a PHARMACIST was feeling about the press conference today.

You can’t tell me it’s not a cult when I see a pharmacist agreeing with this shit and suggesting that maybe “heavy metal poisoning” has something to do with autism.

When I used to commute 3+ hours a day in a car, I had a game where if I organically heard a Supertramp song, it meant I was going to have a good day.
