He may not say it, but Chris Christie wants to kick Mitt Romney's arse

I always wondered why it seemed like New Jersey Governor Chris Christie didn't much care for 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney. When endorsing or attempting to compliment Romney during the campaign, Christie appeared to be like a soon-to-be-wed woman's father who wasn't thrilled with her choice of his future son-in-law.

Daughter: "So, do you like him daddy? Will you be okay with him marrying me?"

Father: "Uh, yeah, I guess, whatever. Ugh."


Reporter: "Do you still endorse Mitt Romney for president?"

Christie: "Sure... Why not? Do I really have a choice in the matter?"


Well, more light has been shed on the situation with the release of the new book Double Down by journalists Mark Halperin and John Heilemann. In it, the following is written:

"Romney marveled at Christie's girth, his difficulties in making his way down the narrow aisle of the campaign bus. Watching a video of Christie without his suit jacket on, Romney cackled to his aides, 'Guys! Look at that!'"

The Romney team also used code names for their vice presidential short-list, and called it, "Project Goldfish." While former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty was called Lakefish, Ohio Senator Rob Portman was dubbed Filet-O-Fish, Florida Senator Marco Rubio was nicknamed Pescado, and Wisconsin Representative Paul Ryan was labeled the not-very-secretive Fishconsin, Chris Christie was referred to as Pufferfish.

I'm now awaiting word that Christie will challenge Romney to an Ultimate Fighting match, where he'll declare that he could beat Romney by using just 47% of his strength, and after winning the fight, will refer to Romney as dead fish.

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!"
