Stoner Jeb's new campaign slogan

Former Florida governor and current Republican candidate Jeb Bush recently received a heap of criticism for his response to the mass shooting at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg, Oregon, as he said, "Stuff happens..." Being one of the few Republican candidates to honestly admit smoking marijuana previously, Jeb decided to take his gaffe, run with it, and become the hippy candidate of the Republican Party. Just watch his new ad as it appears the former Florida governor is smoking a fake joint:

"Life... Every day... Whether you're drinking coffee, taking a shower, driving to work, or getting shot at school, stuff happens, man. Stuff is happening to you; stuff is happening to me; stuff is happening to everybody. Stuff even happens to people after they die, because like, they're dead, but not really, because their spirit lives on or something. So, I mean, if you're ever driving to work and a tire goes out, don't try to fix it or get anyone else to fix it; just shrug your shoulders, say, 'Stuff happens,' and it'll just fix itself. Kind of like gun violence, poverty, homelessness, healthcare, mental illness, terrorism, equality, and all that, stuff happens, so if we don't try to fix anything, it'll fix itself, you know? So, just know, if you elect me for president, good stuff is going to happen, bad stuff, really weird stuff, but at the end of it all, I'm going to look you in the eyes and just say the following two words: 'Stuff happens...' Because yeah, it's like true and stuff. Far out, man."

It should be noted that shortly after this ad initially aired, all former members of the band Grateful Dead, as well as all current and former members of the band Phish, asked Jeb Bush to refrain from playing any of their songs at his rallies. Cheech and Chong also said they'd be unwilling to be guest speakers for Jeb during his campaign.

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!"
