GOP shocks the world by saying witnesses were of greater importance than Jesus' crucifixion

Showing consistency for the first time in decades and shocking the world in the process, the Republican Party, segueing from their belief that Donald Trump's Russia leaks were of greater importance than the potential criminal activity contained within those leaks, they today said, at Jesus' crucifixion, witnesses were of greater importance than their savior's sacrifice. South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy led the charge, saying the following in an interview with MSNBC's Chuck Todd:

"As everyone knows, I love Jesus. I will always cherish what he did for me and my family by sacrificing his life so that we could live for all eternity. But his death, sacrifice, rising again, and saving all of humanity shouldn't be our focal point here. Our focus should be on the people who saw him do this and spread the word of the huge event to others. They're the real heroes. If it weren't for their eyes seeing and their mouths sharing what had happened, Jesus would have never died, never have risen again, and we'd never have been saved. Those are just the facts. The Republican Party loves, praises, and worships Jesus, but loves, praises, and worships his witnesses more! Amen."

After experiencing serious blowback due to his comments, Trey Gowdy (and the rest of the Republican Party) is now hoping, in the grand scheme of things, witnesses of his MSNBC appearance will prove to be of greater importance than his interview.

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...
