What I learned in Week 16 of the NFL season

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

- ...Santa Claus shall now be called Jameis Winston.

- ...the 49ers' defense is so banged up, they're now referred to as just "fen."

- ..., until now, no Super Bowl favorite was ever as impressive as the 6-9 Browns.

- ..., with the way they've been playing, Dallas will now be either the "Cows" or the "Boys," but definitely not the Cowboys.

- ..., if they were to run for office and last weekend was any indication, the Cincinnati Bengals' slogan would be, "Make Losing Exciting Again" (MLEA).

- ...the Detroit Lions have less bite than a comatose hamster named Sir Sucks-a-Lot.

- ..., when Devlin Hodges and Mason Rudolph can't save you, that's when you become an atheist - that or just a disgruntled Steelers fan.

- ...Kirk Cousins without Dalvin Cook is like Marilyn without Manson.

- ..., due to how bad the Carolina Panthers have been, Cam Newton is contemplating having his injured foot removed so he never has to play for them again.

- ...you can't spell "VP Lamar Jackson" without "MVP."

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...
