It’s Halloween time, so as one would expect, many ghostly happenings have been … happening.
A few nights ago I had a lovely date night with myself. I got some snacks and some wine, turned off all the lights except for a single candle, and sat down to watch a scary movie. I’d never seen The [...]

I Hope You and This Blog Post “CLICK”

Posted in real life, writing on August 14, 2009 | 2 Comments »

There’s a sign in the bathroom at school that shows a woman holding her hands up, with the areas where bacteria and poop accumulate highlighted on them. Below this, it reads:
Infection prevention is “IN YOUR HANDS.”
I find it hilarious, because like, imagine someone saying this in real life. “Hey, wanna practice safe hand-washing techniques? [...]

The Wick Snuffed Out

One of London’s oldest bars, The Wick, was secretly smashed with a wrecking ball on Sunday. The whole situation is extremely sketchy. The demolition started just before a meeting planned to discuss the building’s future as a protected heritage site. It was so rushed that utilities weren’t even shut off, and there was still beer [...]

Mikey Likes It?

Posted in misc, real life, tagged , , , , on July 17, 2008 | 3 Comments »

Growing up with the name Mike, and not being very picky about food, I often hear the phrases “give it to Mikey! He’ll eat anything!” and “Mikey likes it!”
The thing is, has anybody actually seen the Life Cereal commercial these phrases come from? Look:

Neither phrase is actually spoken in the [...]
