Unpopular Opinion: Sarah Cooper Isn't Funny

During this COVID pandemic, I kept hearing the name "Sarah Cooper." I saw her name in headlines, articles, Facebook posts, tweets, and text messages from people who mistook me for somebody named Randy. The comments were all the same: "She's hilarious! You have to see her! Like OMG! Funniest sh*t ever! Genius!" So, I did...

After watching one video, I thought, "Okay, she's cute and expressive. I personally don't find this very funny, but am curious to see what else she's released." So, I watched a second video and a third and I noticed something - all she does is lip sync in all of them. That's it. She plays a portion of a Trump speech and lip syncs the whole thing. How is that genius or even funny? An uncle of mine's voice was so bad, his chorus teacher asked him to lip sync the words to all their songs. Does that make him a genius or hilarious? Seriously, the first time I actually heard her voice was when she spoke at the Democratic National Convention. 

What am I missing? She didn't write any jokes; didn't do an impression; didn't display any kind of wit or imagination. All she did was lip sync - something I used to do with Def Leppard songs when I was 11. I'm still awaiting my paychecks for that by the way. Oh, and George Soros, I'm apparently awaiting payments from you as well...

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
