What I learned in Week 10 of the NFL season...

In Week 10 of the NFL season, I learned...

- ..., if he becomes the 2016 Republican nominee, Donald Trump is probably seriously thinking about naming Rex Ryan as his running mate.

- ..., to some in Green Bay, a moment of silence is code for, "Scream lots of crazy sh*t."

- ...approximately 50% of announcers aren't sure how to pronounce Marcus Mariota's last name and it may only be a matter of time before a minority of them refer to the rookie quarterback as Mariachi.

- ...two 10-year-olds could probably score at least 28 points against the New Orleans Saints defense.

- ...Pittsburgh Steelers quarterbacks are secretly wondering whether or not shaking Sam Bradford's hand at one time left them all more prone to injury.

- ..., with Mark Sanchez in at quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, Chip Kelly is trying to creatively find a way to work the butt-fumble into the offense.

- ...Peyton Manning just threw another interception, and the game's been over for a day and a half.

- ...Arizona Cardinals' back-up quarterback Drew Stanton, given his televised touchdown celebration, will almost inevitably become a contestant on Dancing With the Stars.

- ...Aaron Rodgers will likely receive a great deal of criticism from Fox News and talk radio after showcasing mercy for Muslims, to which he'll likely respond, "You think that hurts? That's nothing; we just lost to the Lions!"

- ..., if George Carlin were still around, he'd likely compare the Monday Night game between Cincinnati and Houston to golf, adding, "It was like watching flies f**k."

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...
