Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell speaks out against "moocher 'Muricans" while on permanent vacation

Sipping on his fourth mojito and having his feet rubbed by Sean Hannity, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell took a short break from his busy morning in Cancun to speak with reporters. Given his inebriated status, the Kentucky senator was only able to take one question.

Jorge Ramos: "What do you say to the taxpayers who claim you and your Congressional brethren aren't truly earning your $174,000 salaries? That you do so little for so much, are taking advantage of hard-working Americans, are moochers in a sense, and would be fired if you put so little effort into any other job?"

McConnell: "F**k you! That's what I say! Just kidding... Hey, Jose, or whatever your name is, can you get me another one of these? Make it strong this time! Where was I? Could you repeat the question, Jose?"

Ramos: "That's Jorge..."

McConnell: "That's what I said, Jose."

Ramos: "Jorge... Nevermind... The question was, 'What do you say to the taxpayers who claim you and your Congressional brethren aren't truly earning your $174,000 salaries? That you do so little for so much, are taking advantage of hard-working Americans, are moochers in a sense, and would be fired if you put so little effort into any other job?''

McConnell: "Oh yeah. Thanks, Jose."

Ramos: "Jorge"

McConnell: "I was talking to my server."

Server: "The name's Ricardo."

McConnell: "Close enough. Thanks, amigo. Okay, so back to you, Jose. I think you're shifting focus away from the real issue - welfare recipients, the real moochers! Sure, most of them might already have a job, but just find a better one and work harder, you know? ...and let's be real here; their lives can't be too bad if they're able to spend their food stamps on Trump Steaks or whatever! As I've always said starting right now, 'Once you eat a Trump Steak, you've got it made.' I mean, look at me. This is the greatest job in the world and I'm working harder today than I ever have in Congress! Hey Sean, I need more lotion! 'Rub the lotion on my skin or you'll get the hose again, buddy!' Anyway, back to what I was saying. What was I even saying? This fifth mosquito is really getting to me. Nice going, Jorge! But look Jose, I'll close with this... Lots of welfare recipients might be working hard for next to nothing while I'm making a good living for doing what you see right now. It'd be like if Michael Jordan made less than his teammate benchwarmers back in the day, and that makes a lot of sense when you don't think about it, because America..." :: passes out ::

After awaking several hours later, Senator McConnell began pounding down margaritas while collecting donations from hardworking Americans for the coming election. While doing so, he grabbed the mic from an elderly man proposing to his longtime girlfriend and announced that his new campaign slogan would be, "Work Hard For Me, I'll Bulls*it Harder," before dropping the mic and passing out face first into a bowl of turtle soup.

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...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...

A closer look at the Scramble With Friends power-ups

I am unashamed to admit that I'm a nerd. My idea of a good time is playing a word game like Boggle or Scrabble. Thankfully, I (and many others) can play such games via Facebook and/or my (our) cell phone(s). While it seems that cheating has become more commonplace in these games (Words With Friends in particular) than San Diego has had nice weather, I've yet to give in to that craze. One element present with the game Scramble With Friends (Boggle) not present in Words With Friends (Scrabble) are legal boosts called "power-ups," which cost a number of tokens from the 15 available. I've now tried all five power-ups, including the latest one which costs money. So, in case anyone's curious about playing the game or giving these power-ups a gander, here's a rundown of them all: Freeze - I think this is probably my favorite of all the power-ups. With the freeze, time stands still for a matter of seconds, which allows you more time to find words and improve...
