Why do people say stuff like the following?

“Unpopular Opinion: I hate coleslaw.”

That’s not an opinion. I agree that you don’t like it.

How about this?

“Unpopular Opinion: Coleslaw is gross.”

Confession: I put more cinnamon and sugar on toast than what is necessary or appropriate.

One of the most exhausting things about being alive right now is growing numb to everything going on around us because it’s too much to take in and focus on … and then having moments of rage and fury that slowly become more than we can bear so we grow numb again.

Trump should identify as a woman so that all of their stereotypes of female leaders can be accurate.

If eggnog didn’t have “egg” in its name, a lot more people would drink and like it.

Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, I’m trying a little under 10 recipes. And they’re *almost* exclusively from The Golden Girls Cookbook.

Why? I don’t know. I found it on Hoopla, and I’m just going for it!

(Plus, who doesn’t love The Golden Girls?)

The Venn diagram of men who like “I hate my wife” comedy and those who experience the male loneliness epidemic is a circle.

Gremlins 2: The New Batch makes me sad because the better version of the movie includes the scene in which the VCR you’re playing it on messes up.

But … it doesn’t make sense to play that version anymore. 🥺

Since everyone is giving their Oz opinions, here’s mine:

While I *love* the Muppets, The Muppets’ Wizard of Oz is a big piece of shit!

I know people joke that their kids are feral, but our son has resorted to hissing at those in his vicinity when faced with adversity.

The longer I live, the more I realize that there are people who think Alaska and Hawaii are to the south of the continental United States because of maps like this:

There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.
It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

People who are not interested in seeing certain movies sure are interested in talking about how they’re not interested in seeing certain movies.

Blue raspberry's crime is being a made-up flavor that led to blueberry erasure.

It should be beyond clear by now that we have a president who does not want to help us. He wants to hurt us.

There is a danger in saying that Trump crossed a line THIS TIME! That NOW there is no debate as to whether he should hold office!

He crossed lines in the very beginning! He never should have been elected in the first place! …

The news that nooses and swasitkas are no longer considered hate symbols really got me thinking about something:

We need to see the Epstein files and that fucker needs to be impeached and removed from office!

HE CAN NO LONGER CHANGE THE SUBJECT!!!!!

Not holding a president accountable until there is proof that he is a pedophile is like not recognizing or confronting racism until there’s a burning cross on the front lawn.

At this point, just decide for yourselves if Die Hard is a Christmas movie, and let’s all move on.

Scene: The President when presented with the evidence of his actions and faced with the possibility of consequences for the first time in his life breaks down uncontrollably crying. The sounds are unlike anything we have heard from him before. …

Can you imagine if there were files with possible evidence that a low-income, low-profile person committed a heinous crime? But that person could never be charged with those crimes because those files were highly confidential, so they refused to open them?

Yeah, I can’t either.
