Who smells BS? Obama does by way of Romney

In a recent Rolling Stone interview, the following was written:

"...executive editor Eric Bates told Obama that he had asked his six-year old if there was anything she wanted him to say to the president ... She said: 'Tell him. You can do it.' Obama replied: 'You know, kids have good instincts. They look at the other guy and say, 'Well, that's a bullsh**ter, I can tell.'"

Of course, upon hearing about this, many in the conservative community said things such as the following:

"That's really presidential..."

"What a good way to set an example for the children..."

"I've never heard a president utter such a word in an interview before..."

"It takes one to know one, Mr. President..."

"Just like what you've been giving us for four years?"

That's right. Barack Obama is the first president in the history of our country to use what is coined a swear word. No other president has said the word sh*t, referred to another as a bullsh**ter or even uttered the word bullsh*t.

In the run-up to presidential elections, the candidates are typically asked the following questions at debates:

"What would you do to create jobs?"

"What would you do to help protect this country?"

"Would you raise taxes at all?"

"How can we improve education in this country?"

"Have you ever sworn?"

When certain Romney voters were asked for their main reason for voting against President Obama, here were their top responses:

1) "He's a socialist!"

2) "I hate Obamacare!"

3) "He's anti-business!"

4) "He wants to take away our guns!"

5) "He swore that one time!"

Give me a break... Like people will be more affected by Obama literally uttering the word bullsh**ter than Romney figuratively spewing out bullsh*t every chance he gets (which is quite often).

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...
