What to expect in 2018

In 2017, Tracy Fort and I put the wraps on our year-long podcast, The Tracy & Craig Show ; I released two books ( The Art of the Steal  and A Collection of Satirical Short Stories ); reached 80k followers on Twitter; and managed to stay alive through Donald Trump's first year as president. For 2018, be expecting even more out of me! I will be releasing the third and seventh volumes to The Kind-Hearted Smarta*s and LOL at the GOP series, respectively. I also hope to work on two new books/stories centered around Ronald Chump's character from The Art of the Steal . In a perfect world, I'll release all four books and get back to work on the porn satire I've placed on the backburner for some time, Nick "The Quick" Load . Lastly, I'm hoping to build off my experience from The Tracy & Craig Show  and start my own podcast. Oh, and I suppose it's my goal to eclipse 100k followers on Twitter. In any case, stay tuned, stay warm, safe, and sane, and le...

"Kissing Donald Trump's a$$" brought to you by Celeste Katz

So Celeste Katz of Newsweek  decided to write a piece the other day, entitled, "Trump Had Many Genuine Successes This Year, Despite Low Approval Rating," and I felt the need to comment on it. First off, let's look at the definition of the term accomplishment . According to the dictionary, accomplishment is defined as "something that has been achieved successfully." Based off that, let's now look at Ms. Katz's list of President Trump's supposed accomplishments: 1) "He got a new justice on the Supreme Court" "Trump promised on the campaign trail to appoint a conservative jurist to the highest court in the land as a replacement for the late Justice Antonin Scalia. He selected Neil Gorsuch, a Colorado federal appeals court judge who, at 49, was the youngest Supreme Court nominee since then-President George H. W. Bush nominated 43-year-old Clarence Thomas in 1991." So, in other words, Donald Trump's accomplishment here wa...

More information on my book, "A Collection of Satirical Short Stories: A Bigly Clever Title"

While I have time, I wanted to provide a bit more information on my latest book, A Collection of Satirical Short Stories: A Bigly Clever Title , which can be purchased for $12.50 on paperback at the following link -  http://www.lulu.com/author/content_revise.php?fCID=21783548 . Here's the write-up on the back cover of the book: While in nonsensical actuality Donald Trump's campaign slogan was "Make America great again!," it probably should have been either "Make facts fake again!" or "Make bigly stinky BS smell good again!" It's appeared to be the president's goal to transform the U.S. into bizarro world, where up is down, black is white, right is wrong, left is right, and a bouquet of herpes is a popular item at supermarkets every February 14th. Cite a fact? That's fake news. Cite fake news? That's a fact. So what do we do when the leader of our country tries turning reality on its head? Resort to 24-hour all-you-can-eat buffet...

My latest book is now available on paperback!

Just in time for the New Year is the release of my latest book, A Collection of Satirical Short Stories: A Bigly Clever Title . An introduction to the book reads as: "While in nonsensical actuality Donald Trump's campaign slogan was 'Make America great again!,' it probably should have been either 'Make facts fake again!' or 'Make bigly stinky BS smell good again!' It's appeared to be the president's goal to transform the U.S. into bizarro world, where up is down, black is white, right is wrong, left is right, and a bouquet of herpes is a popular item at supermarkets every February 14th. Cite a fact? That's fake news. Cite fake news? That's a fact. So what do we do when the leader of our country tries turning reality on its head? Resort to 24-hour all-you-can-eat buffets, binge-drinking, and laughter, not necessarily in that order. That's where author Craig Rozniecki's fifteenth book, A Collection of Satirical Short Stories: A...

The magic number

Sex is a pretty taboo subject, especially when it comes to a person's sexual history. I'd like to believe no sober, common sense individual would ever walk up to a complete stranger and say, "Hi, my name is Bob Shitzferbrains. So how many sexual partners have you had?" When a couple of individuals become interested in one another and are curious to move the relationship forward, however, it seems all but inevitable the topic will get broached. While such a conversation can prove to be more awkward than getting caught masturbating by Sister Mary Clarence, as sex, communication, and trust are all key ingredients to a happy and healthy long-term relationship, it may also be vitally important. So what is the "magic number," so to speak, when it comes to sexual partners? Is there such a thing? Would a number which is too high or too low lead a certain percentage of people to bolt before things got too serious? As is typical, it depends on the person. While some...

A #MeToo victim (survivor) defending Matt Damon...

Actor and notable "good guy" Matt Damon has come under fire in recent days for some comments he made regarding sexual assault and harassment in an interview on ABC News's Popcorn With Peter Travers . Given the incredibly hot-button status of the matter at this current juncture, perhaps it would have been wise for Damon to have gone a more cautious route, but I digress. Before providing my take on things, here's what Damon said to Travers: - "I think we're in this watershed moment. I think it's great. I think it's wonderful that women are feeling empowered to tell their stories, and it's totally necessary ... I do believe that there's a spectrum of behavior, right? And we're going to have to figure - you know, there's a difference between, you know, patting someone on the butt and rape or child molestation, right? Both of those behaviors need to be confronted and eradicated without question, but they shouldn't be conflated, right?...

A phrase that's always bothered me: "She's out of your league!"

Anyone who's been living for more than a week has probably heard at least one person say, "She's out of your league!" There was even a film released in 2010 which went by the title, She's Out of My League . What does that phrase mean? To any guy with a temporary squeaky voice or older, it basically means a woman is too "hot" for a guy that's pursuing her. This phrase bothers me for multiple reasons. First off, it makes it sound as though the only thing that matters in this world is physical attractiveness. Secondly, the phrase makes it seem as though a guy can never be good enough for a "hot" woman if he isn't George Clooney. Thirdly, the phrase makes it sound like "hot" women are shallower than an empty baby pool. Lastly, the phrase comes across as, "The only way a woman can be out of a guy's league is if she's like really really hot and stuff." When someone says "She's out of your league,"...

A proof copy of a new book is on its way!

Remember when the eye-test determined the Super Bowl winner? Me neither...

It seems that every year I have a gripe with one of the college football playoff committee's four selections. This year it's Alabama. I don't know anyone who has any problem with the committee's three other picks: The ACC and defending national champion 1-loss Clemson Tigers; the Big XII champion 1-loss Oklahoma Sooners; and the SEC champion 1-loss Georgia Bulldogs. That leaves one spot to be filled. While ESPN and other media outlets seemed to make the debate a black-and-white argument between Alabama and Ohio State, I'm going to add two teams to the mix: Central Florida and USC. Let's first look at the committee's documented protocol for selecting the four playoff teams. Here's what they allegedly look at when comparing teams: "1) Championships won 2) Strength of schedule 3) Head-to-head competition (if it occurred) 4) Comparative outcomes of common opponents" Based on that criteria, let's compare the four teams, starting with...
