"A Gay Phase"


No, I didn't say that. But a friend of mine did a few years ago. He compared the "gay movement" to the Goth movement, saying "It's just a phase and it'll all go away sometime."

It’s one of the few times this ever happened, but I lost it right then and actually raised my voice (that doesn't happen often). Because how idiotic of a statement is that? "A gay phase?" What, a person just wakes up one day after sleeping with someone of the opposite sex and says to themselves, "You know, I'm getting kind of tired of this. I think I'm going to be gay for a few months and then go back to this"? I don't think so.

What, can we go through "Asian phases" one month, "European phases" another, and "African phases" yet another? What about with gender? Can we go through "man" and then "woman phases? What about androgynous ones? Can I go through a teacher phase, followed by a lawyer phase and then a garbageman phase? How does this work?

Homosexuality has existed for centuries. There were even gay T-Rex's around the dinosaur age. It's obviously not just a "phase." Oh wait, I have to go. I feel my "black phase" coming on here (for those that don't know, then look at my picture).

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
