The GOP candidates make their debate demands

Enraged that the CNBC moderators from a recent debate inquired about mistakes, criticisms, and inconsistencies they've made in their pasts, the 14 Republican presidential hopefuls teamed up with the party's top lawyer, Ben Ginsberg, to provide several demands the moderators must abide in all subsequent debates. Each of the 14 candidates provided one demand a piece. Here is the official list of those very demands:

George Pataki: "I demand to never again be asked gotcha questions about what my favorite smartphone app is."

Bobby Jindal: "I demand we start each debate with a prayer to God that we can repeal the totalitarian life-saving Obamacare!"

Rick Santorum: "I demand being allowed to sing hymns if we're ever approached with a question about gay stuff."

Lindsey Graham: "I do demand that the male moderators not be too demanding, because it kind of turns me on."

John Kasich: "I demand the moderators to keep asking tough questions to help show how crazy the rest of these unmedicated loony-bin breakouts are!"

Rand Paul: "I demand enough time during commercial breaks to fix my Chia-Pet hair."

Mike Huckabee: "I demand that it be permitted for Kim Davis to give me a back, neck, shoulders, and head massage throughout the proceedings."

Chris Christie: "I demand for it to be alright for my, um, bodyguards, to be at my side during the debate. This includes: Tony, Tommy, Johnny, Donny, Timmy, Jimmy, and Gus."

Carly Fiorina: "I demand no follow-up questions, fact-checking, nor any questions that involve specifics, especially numbers."

Jeb Bush: "I demand, whenever you call on me to answer one of your questions, you refer to me as, 'Jeb! Mr. Fix It Guy.'"

Ted Cruz: "I demand being allowed to read Dr. Seuss books if a question ever makes me angry."

Marco Rubio: "I demand an unlimited supply of water bottles, towels, and softball questions."

Ben Carson: "I demand not to be woken up if I fall asleep."

Donald Trump: "I demand not to be booed if I say things like, 'Gays are kind of queer,' "Women are bitches,' or 'Mexicans are Taco Bell rapist janitors,' especially if I end one of those facts with the words, 'No offense.'"

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...
