Donald Trump takes obesity fight literally

Throughout his campaign, GOP front-runner Donald Trump has continually pushed the envelope of offensiveness to new heights, only to see his popularity among Republicans increase in the polls on each and every occasion. Not only that, but the 77 other Republican candidates have followed his lead after making such abhorrent remarks, declaring Trump isn't the only candidate who thinks such things, hoping to see their poll numbers improve as a result. Well, Donald Trump tested the offensive waters again at a Town Hall meeting in Des Moines, Iowa on Saturday. When 84-year-old Louise Wingy asked Trump how he planned to fight the obesity epidemic if he became president, Trump ran over to the 350-lb. Ms. Wingy, knocked her upside the head, grabbed the mic, and blurted out, "That's how you fight obesity, my friends!," before dropping the mic and receiving a standing ovation in the form of a slow-clap as a result.

The other Republican candidates stayed quiet over the weekend until they saw Trump's poll numbers rise yet again on Monday, which prompted them to finally talk to the media about the incident. Here's what a few of them had to say:

- "Call it a fact, a theory, a myth, whatever, but I think this Wingy lady probably supported Planned Parenthood once in her life and this was karma at its very finest!" - Rick Santorum

- "I'm usually not a proponent of violence, but let's do like Trump and fight the gays! It's what Jesus would want!" - Mike Huckabee

- "I gotta give Donald Trump some credit, but not as much as I give myself. He shut down the obesity of one old woman for a couple of minutes; I shut down the government for a couple of weeks!" - Ted Cruz

When we asked Louise Wingy about her experience, she said, "What a f**king loser! Round 2, my backyard, bring a bat; you're going to need it, rat-head!," adding, "When I knock you down, I'm going to grab the mic and yell out, 'That's how you fight stupidity, my friends!'"

Upon hearing about this, Fox News decided to post the following headline on their webpage: "Angry 84-year-old white woman challenges Donald Trump, the man who punched her, to a re-match; Black Lives Matter probably to blame."

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!"
