Donald Trump apparently knows not what he says...

Even with all the crazy things he's said in the past, 2016 Republican front-runner Donald Trump still continues to amaze me with the words which emanate from his mouth.

In a recent Rolling Stone article regarding Trump, when the businessman saw fellow GOP candidate Carly Fiorina on television, he remarked, "Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president. I mean, she's a woman, and I'm not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?"

After receiving the inevitable backlash following the article's publication, Trump responded by saying the following to CNN's Chris Cuomo on New Day:

"I'm not talking about her looks. I'm talking about her persona."

That's right. Let's look at that again, shall we?

Trump's initial comment: "Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president. I mean, she's a woman, and I'm not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?"

Trump's follow-up comment: "I'm not talking about her looks. I'm talking about her persona."

So, I guess Trump temporarily mistook the words face and persona for one another, eh? When Ms. Fiorina appeared on the television, what Trump really meant to say was, "Look at that persona! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the persona of our next president. I mean, she's a woman, and I'm not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?"

Riiight...

Given that explanation, expect Donald Trump to make these comments and follow-up statements in the coming weeks and months:


Initial comment: "That Mexican looks creepy, but what else is new?"

Follow-up comment: "Come on, do you really think I meant it like that? Are you really that stupid? What I was really saying was I know this Mexican dude who has the last name Creepy and it just reminded me of him. That's it; that's all. Got it? Understand? Capisce-o?"


Initial comment: "Not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims. Wait, I take that back, all Muslims are terrorists."

Follow-up comment: "My quote was taken completely out of context. One of my best friends is Muslim. His name is something like Mohammed Abdul Allah Jaboo Daboo Doodah. I don't know; I'll have to ask him again. Great guy, great guy, and no, not a terrorist. So, I mean, there's at least one that's not."


Initial comment: "Holy sh*t; she's fat!"

Follow-up comment: "Look, you losers, I wasn't talking about her weight, her figure, her whatever; I was talking about the size of her heart and brain and sh*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

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!"
