Todd Akin is a sly "dog"

How Missouri Republican Senatorial candidate Todd Akin will be able to win the vote of a single woman on election day, including any he's related or married to, is beyond me at this point.

A couple months ago, Akin let the world know of a scientific breakthrough - that when women are raped, their vaginas possess magical powers to ward off any sperm which could potentially impregnate them. Due to this, abortion in the cases of rape would not be necessary.

Following a debate with his opponent - Claire McCaskill - he said she wasn't very "ladylike" at the debate. Apparently, she wasn't dressed in the proper "Little-House-on-the-Prairie" attire, didn't speak to Akin like a king or place on more make-up than Gene Simmons.

Mr. Akin continued his smooth-talking ways this weekend, when at a fundraiser, he said the following about his opponent - Senator Claire McCaskill:

"She goes to Washington D.C., it's a little bit like one of those dogs, you know 'fetch.' She goes to Washington, D.C., and get all of these taxes and red tape and bureaucracy and executive orders and agencies and she brings all of this stuff and dumps it on us in Missouri. It seem to me that she's got it just backwards. What we should be doing is taking the common sense that we see in Missouri and taking that to Washington, D.C., blessing them with some solutions instead of more problems."

That's right. In the past couple months, Todd Akin has talked about "legitimate rape" as he called it, claimed his opponent wasn't very "ladylike" and then compared her to a dog.

I think it's now safe to say that when he first approached his wife, Todd Akin said the following - "You know, I couldn't help but notice you sitting over here by yourself. There's something very nice, very familiar about you and I felt the need to come over. You know, you really remind me of somebody. Ah, I know, my bulldog, Buddy. So, can I buy you a drink or get you a water bowl?"

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

The verdict is in. To no one's surprise, Jonathan Hoenig has been found guilty of being an idiot.

Just recently, when discussing the Michael Brown shooting and whether or not race had anything to do with it, Fox News contributor Jonathan Hoenig said, "You know who talks about race? Racists." One moment while I provide Mr. Hoenig with the well deserved slow-clap. :: slow-claps for two seconds :: So, that was quite the line by Mr. Hoenig, wasn't it? "You know who talks about race? Racists." Well, wasn't he just talking about race? So, by his own words, I guess that makes him a racist. Also, if he wants to be consistent, does this mean that people whom talk about gender are sexists and people whom talk about sexual orientation are homophobes? With that line of thinking, Hoenig would engage in the following back-and-forths: Hoenig: "So, who are you voting for?" A woman: "The Democratic candidate, because he's been adamant about his support for equal rights for women." Hoenig: "You sexist feminist nazi!"
