What I learned in Week 16 of the NFL season...

In Week 16 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ...Chris Long is said to enjoy his honeymoon before the wedding.

- ..."Eli's coming!" appears to hold a starkly different meaning to defenses today than it did a few years ago.

- ...the league's two main concerns are: 1) Head injuries and 2) Bringing attention to the Salvation Army.

- ...there's a 50/50 chance Jerry Jones will blame his Cowboys not making the postseason on Obamacare.

- ...the favorite for Coach of the Year has to be Jeff Fisher, for without him leaving the team after last season, the Los Angeles Rams wouldn't be the team they are today.

- ...starting quarterbacks have been placed on the endangered species list.

- ...the Cleveland Browns are so bad, Santa Claus even refused to give them coal for Christmas.

- ...the only thing worse than the Denver Broncos offense is the Grown Ups movies while sleep deprived and starving.

- ...the Detroit Lions broke the world record for gift-giving this holiday season. Good for them.

- ...Bill Belichick and James Harrison are working diligently on SpyGate 2.0.

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.

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...
