I’m writing this post using my favourite inspirational music - the album Paranoid by Black Sabbath. I remember in my psychology degree getting days that I didn’t have much music that I could listen to while writing. Then I put on Paranoid for some reason and the magic happened - it just made me want [...]

Breaking up with people is always hard. People will go to all sorts of ridiculous extremes to avoid dealing with the breakup conversation. They avoid it like a Tom Green movie covered in aids. Being the bearer of bad news is a hard role to play. It’s the rubrics cube of conversations, a thousand combinations [...]

I love hearing funny outgoing messages. I hate it when the person comes on; in their monotone voice, and say’s, “Hi, you have reached Joe Schmoe’s phone. I am not here right now so, please leave a message after the beep and I will get back to you.” Really? Do you really need to say, [...]

Yes, the term ‘meta’ is thrown about quite a bit these days but it’s the only way I’ve heard this kind of comedy described. To me it refers to a style of comedy that’s not so much funny in isolation but when given context and understanding of the medium it becomes funny. Not everyone seems [...]

 To this day I still struggle with authority, but not nearly as much as when I was growing up. My friend Marcus, and I would always get in trouble. We were mischievous youth. We would do whatever we could to get in trouble. We were like the real life, non-redneck, bike riding, and English-speaking version [...]

I’m a professional juggler and in general a law-abiding citizen. I’ve noticed that border guards aren’t terribly interested in the latter statement if the former is true.
One weekend a while back my friend and I decided to go to the US and do a little camping. I wasn’t to wealthy at the time so we [...]

As the title says, Matt does something really stupid as he attempts to escape from a straitjacket while he drives the trusty Dodge Spirit.

 Recently, I have noticed a trend of really sucky kid names. I will meet kids with unusual names, which make me look at the parents like, “Seriously? You pretentious piece of trash! Out of all the names in the world, you chose the name “Simple” for your child.” People are getting carried away with the [...]
