With his approval numbers dropping, Trump takes credit for Obamacare

In a surprising turn of events, President Donald Trump, with his approval rating at a measly 34%, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) at a record high approval rating of 55%, and Congressional Republicans' seeming inability to pass an ACA replacement bill, decided to take full credit for Obamacare this morning in a series of tweets:

Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 1h

"ObamaCare here to stay, only better. I'm calling it Better Than ObamaCare (BTO)"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 49m

"I didn't change anything to ObamaCare but Better Than ObamaCare is better than ObamaCare, bigly!"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 36m

"I wasn't pres. when ObamaCare, I mean Better Than ObamaCare was signed, but 20 meelion more people have insurance now bc of me, believe me!"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 27m

"Better Than ObamaCare will be better than ObamaCare in every possible way. I gairentee it!"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 11m

"With BTO, I was just takin' care of business, people!"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 2m

"BTO! Better Than Obamacare! MAGA! Make America Gullible Again!"


Ironically enough, while Democrats continue to push for legislation to fix the healthcare law, Republicans, who had tried to repeal it over 60 times, are blocking such motions.

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...
