This week in Twitter hashtags

I've had some fun with trending hashtags on Twitter in recent weeks. Here are my said posts, ordered from the most popular to the least popular (all my tweets can be viewed here - https://twitter.com/CraigRozniecki):

1) Blasey Ford: "Norepinephrine," "Indelible," "Sequela," "Hippocampus"

Kavanaugh: "Boof," "Ralph," "Beer," "Ahhhhh!," "Waaaaah!"

2) Dear GOP:
This isn't jury duty. Kavanaugh doesn't need to be proven guilty  beyond a reasonable doubt. This is a job interview for an incredibly powerful position. Given the man's anger, drinking, dishonesty, & sexual improprieties, he doesn't deserve the job.

3) Kavanaugh: "I'm a good, nice man. I don't get angry. Do you hear me?!? I DON'T GET ANGRY! I DON'T GET F*CKING ANGRY, OKAY? Oh, and I love Jesus."

4) Dear Congressional Republican fathers:

If your daughter came home to you crying, claiming a man, against her will, got on top of her, grinded himself against her, and placed his hand over her mouth, would you believe her or ask, "Where's the proof?"

5) Dear GOP (Greedy Old Perverts):

Bringing up Dr. Ford's fear of flying only harms your case. Last I heard, airplanes constitute as examples of enclosed spaces. Dr. Ford fears enclosed spaces. This was  caused by Brett Kavanaugh's rape attempt on her.

6) Kavanaugh: "I love and respect women more than anyone else in the world. Shut up, Ms. Feinstein! I'm talking here and am gonna yell at you some more! You see how much I respect women?"

7) What we can surmise from today: Brett Kavanaugh is a bully; drinks more than Norm Peterson from "Cheers;" might as well be nicknamed Mr. Entitled; and if he could only bring one thing to a desert island, it'd be a calendar.

9) Anyone else notice Brett Kavanaugh's friends simply "don't recall" certain events, as opposed to flat out denying they ever took place? It seems they've all come down with a serious case of Jeff Sessionsesia.

10) I asked Republican fathers what they'd do if their daughters came to them with a similar story as Dr. Ford's. Sadly, roughly 1/2 of them said, "If she waited as long as Ford did, I'd be suspicious." ...and they wonder why more victims don't come forward.

11) Dear Mr. Kavanaugh:

A Supreme Court Justice is just a job. If you are prevented from attaining said job, your life won't be ruined. Attempting to rape a woman, now that's ruining someone's life.

14) New poll: 54% of Republicans think Kavanaugh should be confirmed regardless of whether or not his accusers are telling the truth. Let me repeat, a majority of Republicans don't care whether or not Brett Kavanaugh attempted to rape women.

25) Today in the GOP
- Women are liars
- Victims are to blame
- Girls getting groped isn't a big deal
- Past felonious behavior should prevent voting, but not being on the Supreme Court
- A predator should be allowed to be a Supreme Court Justice so long as he's "pro-life"

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

The verdict is in. To no one's surprise, Jonathan Hoenig has been found guilty of being an idiot.

Just recently, when discussing the Michael Brown shooting and whether or not race had anything to do with it, Fox News contributor Jonathan Hoenig said, "You know who talks about race? Racists." One moment while I provide Mr. Hoenig with the well deserved slow-clap. :: slow-claps for two seconds :: So, that was quite the line by Mr. Hoenig, wasn't it? "You know who talks about race? Racists." Well, wasn't he just talking about race? So, by his own words, I guess that makes him a racist. Also, if he wants to be consistent, does this mean that people whom talk about gender are sexists and people whom talk about sexual orientation are homophobes? With that line of thinking, Hoenig would engage in the following back-and-forths: Hoenig: "So, who are you voting for?" A woman: "The Democratic candidate, because he's been adamant about his support for equal rights for women." Hoenig: "You sexist feminist nazi!"
