Not many feelings better than being a regular at a bar and asking to change the channel to a game that everyone else in the bar locks into afterward. Bar TV curation is a skill

I generally really like Christmas a lot. However, my Grinch-mode gets activated whenever anyone invites me to go see Christmas lights. I don’t understand how that’s fun for anybody

Something I will always be more Old World snob about than anything is that Protestant/evangelical churches, especially megachurches, are tacky and bad. Be a Catholic cathedral or chapel or be nothing

No bigger jump scare than turning to NPR and it’s during “Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me”

Everything sucks and the worst people in the world won the culture war and the rest of us have to eat shit for the rest of our lives...but this still felt like it was always going to be an obvious swing and a miss. How deluded do you need to be to think normal people give a single fuck about Kirk?

I didn’t think I would update this so soon after. The Rob Reiner news alert hit me like a fucking truck
Random (and morbid) thought: there are five celebrity deaths that surprised/shocked me enough where I still remember exactly how and where I learned about them:
1. Steve Irwin
2. Kobe Bryant
3. Robin Williams
4. Anthony Bourdain
5. Phillip Seymour Hoffman
