No drama, eh?

It cracks me up how so many people claim that they don't have any drama in their lives and that if you have any drama, to head elsewhere. I see this on Facebook profiles and profiles just about everywhere, from social networking sites to dating sites and beyond.

Most everyone doesn't care for drama. Some I think do, but the majority do not. At the same time, I find it laughable when people honestly believe that there is no drama present in their lives and want others to believe this as well, even going so far as to say if these others contain any drama in their lives, to have nothing to do with them.

Sure, we can deny drama all we want, but it's there. If a person is alive, he or she will experience drama. Some experience more drama than others, this is very true. But we all still experience drama at some level or another. Go to school? There will be drama. Work? There will be drama. Have family? Friends? A boyfriend or girlfriend? A husband or wife? Kids? Guess what? there's going to be drama. Planning to take a relaxing vacation? Sorry, there's going to be drama there as well. If any emotion(s) is (are) present within an individual, he or she is going to experience drama.

Personally, I've come to learn that those whom are so adamant and repetitive about their claims of living a drama-free life probably have more drama present in their dramaless life than the majority. Denial is a powerful thing, as is projection.

Do I like drama? No, of course not, but I'm also not going to sit around and say that there's none present in my life, past, present or inevitably in the future. I'll be perfectly fine with anyone who declares they hate drama. That's probably true. No biggy. But for anyone who adamantly declares there's no drama present in their life, I'm going to come back with the question, "Do you breathe?" After I receive an odd look, I'll then say, "Alright then. I'm glad we cleared that up. You have drama in your life."

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...

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i...
