If you like to swear, come to Ohio!

In a study conducted by Institute, based on 600,000 phone calls from customers to businesses in the past year, it was found that Ohio residents swear more than residents of any other state in this country! Ohioans also ranked in the bottom five in terms of courtesy. As a current resident of the Buckeye state, was I surprised by this? Not really, at least on the swearing front.

Here's what I typically hear Ohioans say in the following situations (alright, some of these quotes may be slightly exaggerated, to the point where I'm sporting a Pinnochio-esque nose):

Situation: Ordering a drink

"Can a guy get a f**king beer around here? S**t!"


Situation: Ordering food at a nice restaurant

"I'd like the steak. I want it medium-f**kin'-raw! None of that medium-well bulls**t! I want it pink to the point where I can hear the f**king cow f**king moo, okay? You got that?"


Situation: Asking a woman out at a bar

"Hey baby. You're look f**kin' good, girl. How about you and I f**kin' go back to my place and just talk and s**t? We can talk, f**k, and s**t, know what I'm saying? How does that sound?"


Situation: Watching a sporting event

"F**k! F**k! F**k! F**k! F**k! I can't f**king believe that call! What the f**k is that zebra looking at? Jesus! That's f**king horses**t! We're only up 42-0! It should be 56 to f**kin' nothing! Come on, refs! Get with the f**king program here!"


Situation: Proposing to a woman

"Honey, I love you, like, so much and s**t. We've been together for like f**kin' ever, you know? I guess what I'm trying to say is, will you like f**kin' marry me and s**t?"

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...
